Should Crystal Pepsi be resurrected?
Crystal Pepsi was taken off the market soon after it was released in 1992. Lots of people say it tasted like shit. Some people want it back, but who knows how few or how many that would be?

...You know I have a case of 12 Vanilla Cokes in the kitchen, right?

...They remarketed it as Citrus. Hm. Never in Canada. Then again it was only here for a 6-8 month period...

This thread reminds me of that drink Orbit. Anyone remember Orbit? It was a flavored clear drink that a vast amount of small, buoyant gummy candies floating inside. Why was it discontinued?

Orbit was probably discontinued because the little candies always tasted like they'd been soaking in water for a month or two (gross texture). That's never good for anything without gills.

Crystal Pepsi sucked. I didn't like it back then, and I wouldn't now. I hated peas and smelt as a kid, and I still hate those today so why should Crystal Pepsi be any different?

And, I'm surprised nobody mentioned the Crystal Gravy sketch from SNL where they put Karo syrup on EVERYTHING.

...Because it was a bad idea? I didn't mind Orbit that much but I think some people don't want little gelatin drops floating in their drink.

Heck, I had to chew them while swallowing.

Never tasted it..or I don't remember. I was 5 yrs old..so I can barely remember since my memory sucks. I don't really care, if it came out again I'd try it myself .

I personally recall liking the stuff, although this was a good 10-plus years ago, so my memory may be off.
