Yes TS said, some time ago
the new one is fake sugar
taste change etc.

It's not "bad" but it's certainly not the same... the sugar content was basically halved. Yuck.

I'm a Coke Zero drinker these days anyway :idc:.

All because of some slavering, short tongued. middle-class, elitist, snob, chef. People have to go without. But don't worry, because Oliver doesn't have to go without anything he likes.

They're false. She used to have 61 crates but she drank one and all of her teeth fell out over night.

Well more fool the idiotic punters then.

You can still buy it in most newsagents for 39p

[user104658]

You can still buy it in most newsagents for 39pNo, that's the new recipe with half the sugar. Disgusting.

(tbh it doesn't actually taste all that different but it goes flat quicker and has a slightly artificial taste because they replaced half the sugar with aspartame or whatever)

[user104658]

The same thing happened with Lucozade a couple of years back, btw. Which is why Lucozade tastes absolutely FOUL these days. Irn Bru did a better job of making it taste more or less the same as before, at least. Lucozade is practically undrinkable.

They definitely have the old ones, just look for the red tag on the sugar content.

[Firewire]

To be fair, I haven't been in Scotland since Christmas. But they did have them then. If you know where to look!

[Crimson Dynamo]

I mean, I don't, but what have I got to do with this?

Definitely. He has loads of kids as proof.

I do hate the new sugar rules though, NONE of the fizzy drinks are very... fizzy anymore?

Absolutely ridiculous.
