> New Coke was some nasty stuff.
I can just barely remember what it tasted like. I didn’t like it, and switched to Pepsi.
I still prefer Pepsi to Coke, but Pepsi isn’t as ubiquitous in NZ as it would be in the US — so Coke will have to do most of the time.
Now, if only we could get rootbeer down here, my joy would be complete!
I loves me some rootbeer - A&W, Barq’s, MUG, Stewart’s, etc.
My all time favorite, though, is Vernor’s Ginger Ale. One of the best things ever to come out of Michigan.
Funny you say that...
I prefer Colombian Coca-Cola (can’t say the other word lest I be misconstrued) to the American one.
Here in the good ol’ USA, Coca-Cola is sweetened with HFCS, which I find rather dull, whereas in Colombia it’s sweetened with rich natural cane sugar, which I find better.
Has Dr. Pepper not made to NZ? They are the third largest Soda Company.
