Question

Help answer this question below.

Do they still make that "new formula" 7up? It didn't last long here in Vietnam. We have the original. I know it's been a couple of years, but I hate to see those kind of changes.

Just about every single major soda here in the USA is not original anymore as they all have abandoned using cane sugar. Most use that horrid high fructose corn syrup. Nothing tastes like it should anymore. Just the fact that they p-lace them in aluminum cans has altered the taste from what it was in glass bottles. And plastic? Yuck! Give me soda that is made with real sugar in a glass bottle with real flavors!!!

- That's a new one for me. I know that Coke has sugar in Hawaii and at passover in NYC, I think Mexico, too. It's interesting how there are holdouts scattered here and there. But why do the majority get the dregs new stuff? Let's just say, "We're not worthy" and bend over, pay our money to the big companies:-(

- Here in Vietnam, too. Only we get IMPORTED Dr. Pepper from Los Angeles, so it has the corn syrup. If only we could get the Dublin Dr. Pepper!
  I went to grad school in Texas and drank it all the time!

- Corn syrup, especially the high fructose corn syrup is why I've switched to an occasional soda and it's usually Boylan's which only makes drinks with cane sugar. I don't drink it often as I think it's kind of expensive a $3.70 fro 4 bottles, but it sure makes it seem more special and appreciated, maybe like soda used to be, rather than just something to drink. I don't mind at all, though:-)

Yes, LT. Those idiots at Dr. Pepper/Seven Up didn't think they were getting enough of the market. So they changed it with "natural flavors." It's so sickeningly sweet, it's awful. I prefer either the store brand stuff or Sprite.

I have written to the company to complain but I never got a response. Boy, they sure care about their consumers, don't they?

And 7-Up used the corn syrup before this formula change. That wasn't the culprit. The problem was that they changed the actual recipe of the syrup. It used to be made with reconstituted lemon and lime juice. Now they use "natural flavor," the same stuff that's used to make pies and pastries.

It's awful.

Drink Sprite.

- I gave you the points back. But I know what I am asking. In 2005 they changed the formula of the original 7up. They tried to sell it in Vietnam but no one bought it.
