I disagree. I tried that stuff once. I hated it. I love Red Bull, I like cola. Red Bull Cola-gross. The taste was really really off to me. For some reason, it tasted kind of minty to me. I won't ever buy that stuff again.

Tastes like butt by itself, but mixes with whiskey REALLY well
Haha, when I had my buddy taste it he shouted, "This **** tastes like Jamerson!"
...if I were eating a subway sandwich, I would take Red Bull cola over standard Coke any day. It taste good with pretzels, or even a cheap hot dog. Or whiskey
Am I the only one who was reluctant to click on this based on the title "Pepsi Throwup"? I'm not a soda drinker, but it's a really cool idea. Too bad it's only for the summer though .

There's this organic natural cola I got when living in Byron Bay (hippie central) all the time. Was the most amazing cola ever.
Pepsi has always being junk, always preferred coke.

Caffeine is something completely different. It will say on your list of ingredients on the bottle or can what sweetner it uses. The second ingredient will be either sugar or High fructose corn syrup.

Real DP from the plant in Dublin, TX is AWESOME!!! But if you drink it, you'll never be happy with regular DP again.

Sugar beets. Been used to make sugar for a long time. Cane's better, but sugar beets trump corn syrup, for sure.

ROFL! OK... I have to know.
Is there a post specifically for showing bacon products?
Speaking from a kitchen standpoint, cane sugar makes a better grain, and cooks better.
But that don't affect the taste of sodee! Once you've cooked it, sugar's sugar.

I understand. One possibility is that different brands supply different grain size distributions.
By the time sugar gets into its pure solid form, it's been cooked a few times. It's hard to see how a sucrose molecule in a vat remembers whether it came from a beet or a cane.
I had a bottle of the "throwback" Dew the other day, and I didn't like it. It tasted "diety". I applaud Pepsico's attempt to make soda less "evil", but it's still soda! If I'm going to do something "evil", why not go all out instead of "diet evil"? I giggle every time I see a fat kid eating a greasy burger with a Diet Coke. I want to roll down my window and yell "HEY! YOU'RE LIVING A LIE!"
Ok, too much Mountain Dew before bed, I'm getting too old for this ****!

I found the first couple of sips seemed strange as well. Almost had a diet pop after taste. But by the time I got to the end of the bottle...and another bottle the next day....it seemed really smooth. I think it will take alot of people a bit of time to get used to sugar after drinking HFCS for so long.
