  20. They definitely taste quite a bit different (even blindfolded).  Like I
  21. said, I think the clear stuff tastes like Coke, not Pepsi.  I don't think
  22. they intended to just remove the color from original Pepsi.  I think their
  23. intent was to produce a totally new "cola beverage" that just happens to
  24. be associated with the Pepsi company.  Arrg.
