Thoughts on this Throwback?

throwback
Have you guys seen these? I saw them for the first time today while shopping & they are pretty neat. Now this goes against everything I believe in, being that I am totally anti-Pepsi, but not only did I look at them, I wanted to figure out what they meant by "throwback." The design? Well, sorta. They're calling it a "throwback" because they are using real sugar instead of high-fructose corn syrup. (What about that commercial with the kool-aid and popsicles that said high-fructose corn syrup wasn't bad for you?) Anywho, you win Pepsi. I came, I saw, I blogged and I liked your designs. What do you guys think??

HFC is baaaad stuff. I don't drink soda - but I like this (both design and diet wise) :)

Definitely can't be good for you, that's for sure! I know, +1 for the real sugar and +1 for the design...but still won't buy it :)

I bought each yesterday. I was hoping to find individual cans, but they are seemingly only sold in 12-packs. I just wanted one of each. :)

I don't drink Pepsi and like you, care for it for that matter, but it's not bad. Mountain Dew is great and definitely better with real sugar, but I'm not making a habit of it no matter how much I like it. :P

I only drink Coke products or Coke Zero varieties specifically, but these Pepsi products are each worth the purchase for the cans alone. Great designs!

Take care,
Nate

The Pepsi can design brings me back to my childhood days. I wish they would just go back to it...and the flavor too. It was unanimous that the "throwback" Pepsi and Mountain Dew were better than the current. I am more of a Coke over Pepsi person myself, but I liked the old Pepsi over the current Coke.
