Used to ride my bicycle to a small store in the late 50’s for an RC Cola and a Moon Pie. The last RC I tried didn’t taste right.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

IMO, none of the ‘cola’ drinks taste like they used to when I was growing up (some decades ago). I quit drinking any soft drinks ... went from regular to diet to get away from sugar, then had a really bad reaction to both aspartame (vertigo) & Splenda (killed enough good gut bacteria I was messed up for 6 months). No soft drinks of any kind for me - don’t miss them, either.

Now there is a diet for you. Ha! Sounds like my brother who used to have a maple bar and a Coke for breakfast.

Lol me too, though it was j. The 70’s. Would collect cans along the way to trade In For another soda and snack. Back then everyone used the side of the road as a trash can

Wonder if they went High Fructose Corn Syrup as well?

Having been in the Great White North for forty years, I've not seen RC in quite a while.

Probably corn syrup vs real sugar.
