Crystal Pepsi

How many of you actually remember this stuff? I really liked it but it only lasted a brief period of time. Pepsi and their stupid gimmicks.

Yeah, that stuff was pretty good; and they had the cool Van Halen song on the commercials. How could anyone forget that? I guess it was a big flop, though. I remember asking everyone I knew if they'd tried it and no one had. It was a big deal because soft drink companies hardly ever put out new drinks back then. Nowadays, there's a new flavor of Mountain Dew or Sprite every two weeks.

haha yeah I used to get that stuff all the time.

Man, I had forgotten about the Van Halen commercial. Yeah, good times.

**Ted Logan** · 11-12-2003, 02:41 PM

I LOVED it. I was very sad when they discontinued it

I remember one of the only times I had it, I got it for free. Walked up to the grocery store for a trading car... er... convention, I guess. Man, I miss basketball cards.

Awesome yet sucky.

Hated it and cherish the memory.

Dude, Crystal Pepsi was the bomb!!! I remember they debuted that Van Halen Commercial during Super Bowl XXVII when the Cowboys beat the Bills the first time. We had that stuff in the Pepsi machines at my Jr. High and I had one every day at lunch. All the people I know and knew then liked it, except my dad, 'cuz he's a traditionalist. It shocked me that it never got popular enough. We should make a petition to Pepsi asking them to make it again. Maybe give them a link to this poll that shows five out of six people that don't live in a cave and had actually heard of it loved it. Big business execs love stats and ratios and graphs and stuff like that. Maybe a pie chart or two . . . Not to mention I've noticed a rise in teen drug use that parallels the decline of the manufacturing of Crystal Pepsi -- think about that . . .

I wish it would come back. I loved it. We used to get it. It didn't taste like Pepsi, it was better.

racazip · 11-13-2003, 10:14 PM

It's so... beautiful.

I want it back. Now.

When it came out, one of my cousins was bleaching her teeth. She loved it 'cos it was the great flavor of cola, and it wouldn't restain her teeth.

Then they got rid of it.

It would be easy to bring back, since all it is is cola without the unnatural coloring.

I never had it. But I remember it. I wish it still existed, so I could have some.

Three things in life that steal my joy.....

1- No more Crystal Pepsi

2- Pro-choice movement

3- Lack of quality programming on the WB
