I'm actually not at all sure what you meant, since both use all natural ingredients. I'm more bothered by foods that add saccharin or other chemically engineered sweeteners or lipids.
It was nice to see the Pepsi Throwback come out-I believe the TV commercial said for a "limited time only". I am not a huge soda drinker-but we always pick up a few bottles of Kosher Coke and Kosher Pepsi during Passover because they are not made with HFCS. That is pretty much the only time we drink soda-when we can get it without HFCS.
Whether or not HCFS is worse for you or whatever, cane sugar just tastes better. Or, I should say the drinks made with it taste better, less cloying, etc.
I tried dew throwback today and it's much better. The HFCS version tastes like I am washing my mouth in battery acid, the natural sugar is much smoother and nice.
There's a company called Jones Soda Company--my room mate got some of their soda. It's made with sugar, and I just checked to see where it's made. Seattle. You might be able to find out more if you search for it on the 'net. Seems to me that there's also a Doctor Brown (Dr.? Doc?) that makes "healthy" sodas.
I have some Pepsi Throwback and some Pepsi HFCS and plan on doing a side to side to see which one is better, I'll let you know......
Tried them both back to back last night.
Strangely, I liked the HFCS version better. I liked the Throwback a lot, but it reminds more of Tab than it does of Pepsi.
