Throwback


My local market is carrying the throwback edition of Pepsi.....the throwback in this case is a retreat to the good old days in the 1970s, when Pepsi was made with real sugar (instead of high fructose corn syrup).  Made with real sugar, throwback Pepsi is practically health food.  Naturally, I only drink it while behind the wheel of a throwback light blue Plymouth wagon like the one my mom drove back in the day.

With any luck, Coke will soon start marketing a throwback version of Coca Cola, one that reaches way back in the annals of time to an era when Coca Cola was made with sugar and cocaine.  Imagine how much more energy I'll have then.

  1. Don't you love those commercials about how "corn syrup is natural, just like sugar, and is fine in moderation"? Sure, except that it is completely without any nutritional value, totally unnesessary, and in EVERYTHING including stuff that doesn't need sweetened (like canned fruit).

  3. I'm all for old school being that I'm old and all. And would get in way too much trouble on Original Formula Coke.
