    Pepsi Throwback Becomes Permanent
    By Ben Popken on March 17, 2011 5:00 PM 0 views

    Pepsi "Throwback," a version made with real sugar instead of high-fructose corn syrup, will has been upgraded from "limited time" to "permanent," the sodamaker announced on its Facebook wall. No more driving down to Mexico or waiting for Passover to snatch some up. You can now enjoy the all-natural sugary pick-me-up beverage as an occasional treat and compliment to your favorite nutritious meals and snacks all year-round.
    I did not even know this product existed but I do know that soda-drinkers have some very fixed preferences for cane/beet sugar over corn sugar.

    Here's to you, future dental implant patients and cane sugar enthusiasts! :D

    Pepsi throwback is good stuff, though. They made a Dr. Pepper throwback for a while. It was awesome. There is no replacement for sugar.

    The can leaves something to be desired:



    And every Mexican restaurant around me sells that Mexican Coke that is only made with real sugar.

    Context doesn't matter to this liberal it seems/ as long as it satisfies his godless dreams/ like monkeys throwing sh!t as castles in air/ as long as he throws/that is the extent of his care.

    they make mountain dew throwback as well.

    I use them at competitions for quick energy between events.

    Nay you repeatedly punch him in the throat as he slowly drags you away.

    I don't know why, but I can't stand Mt. Dew throwback. I know I used to drink Mt. Dew before they removed the sugar, but i don't remember it tasting like that.
