While that is quite possible, Kenny... LOL....what I meant was that I *think* (I'm too lazy to look it up right now) that the original formula used sugar, and not high fructose corn syrup. Anyone who's ever tasted a Dublin Dr Pepper can tell you there's quite a difference. Coke can't come up with a "throwback" version like Pepsi now, because they're claiming they're already using the original formula, so if they did, they'd be proving themselves liars.
Actually... Chris got a throwback Pepsi this weekend and I tasted it. Mind you, I don't like Pepsi (sorry, hon), but I actually do like the throwback version. That should give you some idea of how pronounced the difference is between using sugar and using corn syrup in a soft drink.
