The Search for Cherry Coke

I'm a huge Cherry Coke fan—always have been and probably will forever be. But, the suits at Coke took my beloved beverage in a new direction in late 2005. Ditching the old, iconic name for the more streamlined Coca-Cola Cherry. Granted, it still tastes the same, however, the new marketing campaigns, logo, and overall design aren't blowing my skirt up. Sure, some design major came up with a fresh take on a contemporary new look, and while the new purple-heavy design is admittedly sleek and snazzy, it's just not the same. What hurts the most is the name change, as Coca-Cola Cherry doesn't have the same ring or nostalgic edge built-in like Cherry Coke. While down at Walt Disney World last month I thought I'd found what I felt was taken away so cruelly from me... honest to goodness Cherry Coke!

[ReviewtheWorld]

no, if I actually got a can of authentic Cherry Coke I'd probably save it as a souvenir..

[NESWIIGAMECUBE]

i know but, lets say if u drank it. would it still be ok?

[ReviewtheWorld]

i'm not positive.. it'd definitely be really, really flat.. - not sure if any harmful bacteria would grow.. - a sip or two wouldn't hurt, but likely not a good idea to drink much of it..
