agreed, until they go Cane Sugar it isn't natural enough for me.

Should we see new 20oz bottles? All our new coupons have the "100% natural" phrasing on them

Ok could some one in the know explain what the "100% natural " means?
Sorry I have asked this question a few times. I'm trying to understand what is meant and if there is taste difference.

By the way the Jewel (Chicago SuperValu) has 7up Pomegranate two litrs
on the weekly hot sale, 89 cents.

The flavorings in the soda are 100% natural - they are obtained from natural sources, not created artificially.

If you didn't have the flavorings, you'd just have sweetened carbonated water.

As far as I know, Sprite has always been naturally flavored. But after all the flack 7Up received for making a similar statement, you'd think they would have scrapped this label change.

Thanks Fusion, so bottom line, the formula has not changed and the new labeled
Sprite should taste the same. Gee, just to keep up with 7up. LOL If only
7up would change back to it's previous formula. I sure do miss the old 7up.
