Free For All Posted May 20, 2005 Report Posted May 20, 2005 "Return With Me Now to Those Thrilling Days of Yesteryear," aka "Remembrance of Marketing Debacles Past": ← You don't think this was a deliberate plan to increase sales? I don't know what to think, but I tend to suspect they knew just what they were doing! Quote
Aggie87 Posted May 20, 2005 Report Posted May 20, 2005 I must admit I drink Diet Coke at work and when eating out (you know, the burger-and-fries type meals), but after tasting this new Splenda version, count me out. It's the Diet Coke version of the New Coke debacle... ← I just tried one of these today for the first time. It reminds me of a generic, store-brand diet cola. Quote

jazzypaul Posted May 20, 2005 Report Posted May 20, 2005 man, I'll tell you what, splenda is just awful. It's a necessity on the atkins diet, but man, that shit is awful. It's like 14 sugar packets and a sacharine all together in one handy pouch. Ass in a little yellow packet. Quote
Big Wheel Posted May 21, 2005 Report Posted May 21, 2005 I had to call Pepsi headquarters at work the other day and the lady at the switchboard remarked that they had just got the first batch of Pepsi with lime in this week. Apparently they used to give the stuff away for free but "people began to abuse that." Quote

sheldonm Posted May 21, 2005 Report Posted May 21, 2005 What did it taste like? My family was strictly RC Cola while all of this was happening. ← Quote
