Cola Blind Tasting (Soda Tasting #41)

2017-10-24 19

On#15 of Soda Tasting ( we tried something new: a blind tasting. The concept is simple: I taste a bunch of sodas without knowing which is which. I talk about my favorites and try to guess the brands. In a way, Im setting myself up to look silly. But, it is fun.\r
\r
Thatis currently the most viewedof the show so far. Thanks to the positive response and requests for more, Ive decided to continue doing them. This time, we are doing a blind tasting of colas. This was requested by Chris Trynkiewicz (). Thanks for the request, Chris!\r
\r
Correction: On this , I noted that Pepsi had HFCS only. It has both HFCS and sugar. I am sorry for the error.\r
