Pepsi Has more cola taste

The New Coke debacle...I was discussing that last night. What a mistake, or was it? When the Classic Coke came "back" it sold like, um...hotcakes. The New Coke tasted more like Pepsi, so it must have been a quantity of "cola taste" thing.

I remember taking the Pepsi Challenge at King's Island in Cincinnati. I tried to purposely pick Coke because I'm partial to it. I was successful.

Other trivia: Somewhere between my love of Tab and my love of Diet Coke when it debuted there was a Pepsi Lite. It had half the calories but a touch of lemon flavoring. I liked that too.

Some years ago I would buy Tab if I saw it in the store just for the memories. A diet pop hater would REALLY hate that stuff, but I like it. Don't know if you can buy it any more.
