I remembered that both Coke and Pepsi had switched to corn syrup back in the early 80's(about a few years before the cola wars had begun when Coke had changed their formula to be like Pepsi's for a brief time. I have read that corn syrup isn't as easily metabolized as cane sugar which means that it's less healthy for you, and that the reason that the switch with sweeteners was made because corn syrup is much cheaper than sugar. I am a 'Boomer' that's going to turn 50 soon which is the reason that I recalled all of that. The “Throwback” sodas are being made the same way they were made back in the 70’s.

I know it's tempting to think that they use cane sugar elsewhere because Elsewherians are, like, so much better than us. Sugar tariffs that are supposed to "help" the sugar industry by propping up sugar prices (and driving everyone to alternatives) are the cause. This is supposed to help Big Sugar who, despite the sound of it, is not an obese New Orleanian prostitute. You may thank the protectionists thugs in DC.

Unfortunately in Canada we don't have this stuff, but I was in the US last year and had a chance to try it, i personally don't like Pepsi and drink Coke but i really liked Pepsi Throwback. Definitely should be brought back, and made available in Canada :) . This is so true.
