The Superman logo is already on cans of Pepsie and Diet Pepsi.

I picked up a few Pepsi fridge packs today.
I drank a can,it was enjoyable as always, yet I noticed the sweetness was a tiny bit better than I had remembered it. Note, I have a very sensitive sense of smell and taste. LOL

I looked at the can (Superman...the can looks awesome.) and was amazed to see that "sugar" was listed as the 4 ingredient. I have not seen a Pepsi can or bottle with sugar as the 4th ingredient. Could it be the beginning of "cane sugar" wars between the Big Three?

I remain confused yet very happy to see the industry at lest attempt to bring back the traditional "sugar" sweetner.

The list of ingredients were:
Carbonated water
HFCS
Carmel Coloring
Sugar
Phosphoric acid
Caffeine
Citric Acid
Natural Flavoring

I was somwhere yesterday and saw 3 of these cans sitting on the counter. I must say, it's a sharp looking can.

Yeah, it's a real sharp design. IMO..It's very classy. Pepsi gets a high 5 for this cool Superman can. [img]smile.gif[/img]

sugar is listed after caramel color though... so how much is actually in there? a teaspoon?

if that's it... then what's the point?

You do make a good point.
I do not fully understand how a small amount of "sugar" can enhance HFCS. For now I will just taste as if... LOL I hope to get some industry feedback on this situation. [img]smile.gif[/img]
