I don’t have the problem about worrying about surgar vs hfcs. I drink diet. lol
I drink Pepsi Throwback. I’m old enough to remember days before HFCS in soft drinks. I MUCH prefer the taste of sugar in Pepsi! Being diabetic I drink little of it though. I checked my glucose levels after a HFCS Pepsi vs Sugar Pepsi and it confirmed to me that I will eat NOTHING with HFCS ever again. WOW! Up a little with sugar but thru the roof with high fructose corm syrup! Read labels, it’s in everything! Sugar just tastes better in soft drinks! Thanks you Pepsico for giving us a choice!
As an avid Mountain Dew drinker, I thought I’d try the “throwback” version. Perhaps it was just me, or the one can I drank, but I could immediately tell the difference and I didn’t like it. I actually thought it tasted kind of gross. However, I’m the kind of guy that can tell the difference between can and bottle, and always prefer can.
I have recently been drinking the Mountain Dew Throwback. At first, I didn’t like it; however, I’m beginning to like the taste. I, too, can tell the difference between a bottle and a can. I actually prefer the bottle. It tastes so much better to me.
It is interesting that the high fructose made Terie’s sugar rise quite alot; while the sugar only made it go up just a little bit. I’m going to have to test this on myself. While I’m not a diabetic, diabetes does run in my family and I will have to keep a check on this in the future. I have been told that hfcs is very bad for us.
I started drinking original Mountain Dew when I was a kid when my grandfather introduced it to me. As they changed and went to HFCS, I knew the difference. When Throwback came out for both Pepsi and Mountain Dew, I no longer buy the other. I drink only the Throwback… I am so happy they have brought this back….
I can tell the difference right away too! I personally don’t care for the Throw Back. I gives an after taste that reminds me of Aspertame.
Throwback is not as good. I have synesthesia and it tastes “hot”.
Fascinating, S. How do some other drinks taste?
