Oh well. LOL Today I drank a can of HFCS Pepsi. I really enjoyed it as the carbonation and throat burn really hit the spot. I feel torn between the old and the new TB. LOL

Cool

it doesn't sound like a lot of you are very impressed with the "throwback" versions...

Found pepsi tb in a pathmark on rte 322 next to walmart by Aston Pa.

I like it, much easier to drink then reg pepsi and a smoother feel.
Leaves a better aftertaste then hfcs pepsi.

I still can't find the Mountain Dew Throwback around here in Maryland. I also think it is bottled by Dr. Pepper and not Pepsi in this area. I don't pay that much attention to it though. Would it make a difference?

I looked everywhere in Howard County without luck then found single 20-oz bottles in Carroll County at the Eldersburg Walmart, $1 each. Good stuff but a little under-carbonated. I look forward to trying the 12-oz cans.

The only place I have been able to find any in the Knoxville, TN area is at Wal-Mart. They have had the bottles for a few days, but just got the 12pk cans today. The Pepsi guy said that they are still getting permission from Kroger and other grocery stores to sell there.

I just got some Throwback Pepsi and Dew at Kroger. They have 20oz bottles on sale for 79 cents with their discount card. They also have a display of 12 pack cans. I love the Dew logo they used, since I grew up in the 80's. I've been irritated ever since they got rid of it, especially once "Mtn Dew" came along.

Throwback Dew is really good, less sweet, and more fruity than HFCS Dew. It's almost like lemonade. I just mixed some George Dickel in with it. Yum!

Throwback Pepsi is pretty good, too. It's a lot better than the HFCS version. It's smoother, like RC.

Finally found this at Wal-Mart today.

Pepsi Throwback is better than HFCS Pepsi. A little watery, but still better.

Mountain Dew Throwback is pretty good. I like it. But I like HFCS Mountain Dew better.
