A radio show co-host asked today, "Who doesn't remember Crystal Pepsi?"
I thought, "You must be in my age bracket. I remember drinking Crystal Pepsi in the early '90s and thinking it was just as good as regular Pepsi."
That wasn't the public's general perception, however. Given that conventional Pepsi is a dark soda, I understand how many customers would find a clear version off-putting. At least one nearby grocery store sells purple burgers. While I admire the manufacturer's commitment to a meatless product, burgers shouldn't be purple.
Clear sodas are common enough that Crystal Pepsi doesn't turn me off. I draw the line at a purple burger, however.
