Hi all,
I found a 12-pack of Pepsi NEXT at CVS this morning and just had to try it when I read the box ("60% less sugar than regular Pepsi").
Has anyone else tried it? What are your thoughts?
It reminded me of when I mix regular and diet soda to cut calories but keep the real sugar taste (I do this with Coke and Dr. Pepper at soda fountains).

It's the one diet soda I just can't give up. It's so good. It's like coffee but it's pop. And it is full of artificial junk. And no cals. Annnd it's basically a double-edged sword; a big, delicious double-edged sword. lol0 -
Haven't heard of it, but I will find it and try it. I still wish they'd bring back Pepsi Clear!0

i miss clear pepsi0

Wow, I thought I was the only one who liked Pepsi Clear. Most people have never heard of it. Apparently the caramel coloring they use in colas is now bad for us. Maybe that will be incentive enough to bring it back.0

Man, the old days were the best. Van Halen's Right Now playing while watching this amazing bottle of water, wait...that's Pepsi? And it's clear!? LOL. Maybe one day.0 -

You were definitely in the minority. I recall Pepsi Clear being really strange tasting! Appearance is very important for taste0 -
the only pepsi I will drink is pepsi throwback. that uses real sugar. Sucralose HFCS and all those other artificial sweeteners are 100x worse than sugar. Only artificial sweetener i deal with is Stevia.0

You seriously believe EVERYTHING you read on the internet? Wow.
I've tried it and it's pretty good for those trying to transition from full cal sodas to no cal sodas. I don't drink soda, so its not a huge thing for me. I just wanted to try it 0 -

Okay, in case you (disturbingly) believe that crock of bollux to be real, http://www.snopes.com/politics/medical/pepsi.asp
Also very unnerving is the Nazi-stink on some of other articles...

ummm.... pepsi?0 -
do your research, believe me or don't. your life won't be affecting mine, just thought i would share.0

Never heard of it. Sounds good, and like the 10 calorie Dr. Pepper "for men" my husband likes.
As for the hysteria surrounding soda and artificial sweeteners... ugh. i too have oceanfront property in Kansas to sell.
yes, caramel coloring is thought to be carcinogenic, the cans are lined with BPA, and the phosphoric acid in some sodas will inhibit the absorption of calcium.
BUT... my family has been drinking diet soda since the early 80's when we lived in a really bad industrial area and the water was horrible... and diet soda on sale was cheaper than water. so if it really was that bad, we'd all be dead.0 -

I do my research, carefully, thanks.
I do not believe you, because it's uniquely ridiculous to believe that human fetus cells would be used in a food product.
T-cells (routinely used in biomedical and industrial research) ARE being used to replicate taste cells, like on your tongue, and were obtained from a line of cells first obtained in the 70s, from an aborted fetus.
They do NOT, can not, will not put, use or otherwise dedicate "cells from an aborted fetus" in any kind of "taste enhancement" that enters the food chain.
It's unfortunate, however, that sanity and good sense can't effect your life. But as a citizen of the human race, you are absolutely allowed to hold any truth with which you feel comfortable, regardless of it's relation to reality.
So, about that swamp land...?

I think Coke had something like this about 5 or so years ago? Pepsi Next sounds great for an occasional treat... I'm sure I'll try it!0
-
I bought it..I like it..honestly with my tummy issues, I rely on an occasional Coke or Pepsi..this one is 60 calories verses 150..do I know it's not an uber health food yes..but in moderation..anyways I liked it.0
-
Never heard of Next.
Crystal Pepsi was awesome to the other posters who mentioned it. Most people don't remember it because it was only around for about a year. It was easy to win a free coke with it because if you looked through you could see if the lid said winner or not.0 -
