Unless it says on the label, lime juice, lemon juice, then I would say it's misleading

Like I posted before, did they change the
formula or is the new lable just a marketing ploy?
Does anyone know? Thanks

Alright, so I check it. All the flavors were natural before, lol. So, no change.

Thanks Amyers. I appreciate the info.
I will be at Woodman's tomorrow. I'm
eager to get some Sprite(I have a craving).
I'll report back if there is a flavor change.

the old Sprite cans in the 60s used to say "It's Natural" on them. this is just for marketing. the formula is still the same.

This may be a little off topic.

Does Coca-Cola produce a KFP version of Sprite for Passover? I didn't notice it when I was on a KFP Coke hunt in Pittsburgh this past year. Then again, I wasn't really looking for it.

Sucrose would make the "Natural Flavors" claim a bit easier to swallow.

By my parts here in the Chicago area; we get Coke,Diet Coke,Pepsi and Diet Pepsi KFP. Pepsi KFP is not easily found. I seem to recall that more than a few years ago there was Sprite KFP. I have not come across any since I was a kid.LOL
