Arghh, yes. Ingredients from the Coke Classic in my hand:
CARBONATED WATER, HIGH-FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP AND / OR SUCROSE, CARAMEL
COLOR, PHOSPHORIC ACID, NATURAL FLAVORS, CAFFEINE.
It still gives the ol' throat burn, however. Does anybody have a stash
of the old stuff that can compare taste with the Classic? Are they
really the same? Can the taste buds discern the difference between
fructose, sucrose, and glucose?
