I think the new coke tasted like one of those obscure cola brands that you never heard of before at a discount store. I remember the when the new coke came out, people were scouring the grocery stores for whatever bottles of the old coke they could find!
I liked them both, and I guess I still miss the new Formula. Of course I say the same thing about Mint Flavoured Snapple but that one will never come back.
After the New Coke fiasco, it was sold along side Coke Classic for a while. I remember trying it while on a family trip to the States one year. It was OK for a cola, and it went down pretty smooth. That's all there is to say about it.
Retro Pepsi is good shit.I emailed Pepsi Canada and they thanked me for my support of it (its a big deal since I am a life long Coke drinker) but that it was a limited one time only deal (right now anyway) so you'd better stock up. As for the new Coke, I was born in 85 too, so I never experienced it. Wish they would bring it back as Coke 2 or something like that.I'm with spachette it couldn't be THAT bad.
I was born in '85 and didn't get the opportunity to try the "New Coke", unfortunately. I've heard stories about people making a big "to-do" about the changing of the recipe, until the changed it back to the original formula. Was it really that bad?
Dude, Pepsi Throwback is exactly the same as Pepsi in Canada (all that's *added* in regular Pepsi is Glucose-Fructose, which is pretty much already sugar). In the US, they've replaced sugar with corn syrup in the recipe.

I prefer RC Cola myself... Yes, I said it.. RC... ;)
PS - For retro lovers.. make sure you grab the Retro Pepsi, in stores now... it won't last that much longer...

@apachette07 Way too big a deal was made out of the change: I couldn't tell the difference!

@RetroWinnipeg I think Glucose-Fructose is the name given to corn syrup in Canada, actually.
