There is deffinitely a huge difference. Seriously why does NA get the shaft with the pop drinks? is real sugar that much more expensive?

From wikipedia:

Factors for this include governmental production quotas of domestic sugar, subsidies of U.S. corn, and an import tariff on foreign sugar; all of which combine to raise the price of sucrose to levels above those of the rest of the world, making HFCS cost-effective for many sweetener applications.

while you guys are at either of those places makes sure that you try one of these too



Ever watch that slurm episode on Futurama. Well if slurm existed this is what it would taste like

I used to work for a coca cola bottling co back home & cos of the large amounts that i used to drink, my taste buds became very sensitive to subtle differences in the product.

With that said, I drink the local Coca Cola but its definitely not as good as what i had back home....which was made with sugar....In my opinion, either one is still better than Pepsi

Funny thing is in mexico i drink pretty much just Pacifica.... don't remember drinking coke.

I am a complete Coca-cola fan, and avoid Pepsi as much as I can. I remember growing up I used to be huge Pepsi fan. Wondered where I made the switch...then I found this:



It was all about the real sugar vs the fructose crap they use now.

^^you can only get that in the states though, right?

I used to have Cola Champagne most days for lunch or snack time since, it was my favorite and my dads as well when I was a kid back home, here is not too bad except if you are buying the small one and drink it in the bottle, cause once you take it out, it seems most of the soda just evaporates really fast, but still damn tasty.

In very limited places. I have only seen it once in Target. Haven't found it in any other groceries, WalMart, Costco/BJs, etc.

I've seen it all over the place in the US. I was just wondering if you could get it anywhere in Canada since I've never seen it here.

Throwback was everywhere, just didn't last too long. They do it every few months for a limited time. They had throwback mountain dew and dr pepper also. I think it just ended again though, haven't seen any for a couple weeks. It seems like they're testing markets or something. A few batches had recipe changes.

Edit: Apparently Canada gets a sugar version of coke during passover. Also, most actually prefer the taste of HFCS in a blind test.

I just saw it in Missoula and Minneapolis/St. Paul about 3 weeks ago.

See, I live in Manhattan, where everything has its own rules. Even the McDonalds has its dollar items starting at $1.69 (vs. $1 for the rest of the country). I should try again in Jersey, and stockpile it.
