I thought I'd place this in the random section. Here goes....

Crystal Pepsi was only on the market from 1993-4, and upon its initial launch in January 1993, it ran ads during Super Bowl XXVII, set to the Van Halen song "Right Now". But now, for a short time, it is back.
I've included this brief vid of myself taste-testing the cola for the first time.

I couldn't care less. 
However, if they ever bring back another huge marketing failure known as "New Coke", I will care. I will take that as a sign that world really is coming to an end, and I will be stocking up on suicide pills.

I hope they bring Crystal Pepsi to Canada. I've always wanted to try it.

On that note I hope Coke starts putting cocaine in their drinks again before the end of the world. I'll be having a lot of that thanks

This is going to sound like I'm a complete freak, but, I've never been able to tell the difference between Coke and Pepsi....! 
I know, I know, everyone in the world can tell the difference! I don't know what's wrong with me, seriously. I can't tell! They taste the same to me. What is that?

Thank you! I've seen people get so vehement about the difference (not here but elsewhere and even a real-life friend), people saying "Oh I refuse to drink Pepsi/Coke [insert preference here], Pepsi/Coke is far superior!! Get that other stuff away from me!" -- and I'm thinking "huh??"

It was actually released July 7 in Canada, so last month. Check your local stores if they still have it, I say.

Slight correction: It was first released in April 1992. It left the market in late 1993. Apologies for my flawed research.

I need to try it. I wasn't born when it came out the first time, but when I was in middle school, one of my special interests was the 1990's, so I am excited about this
Next, I hope Fruitopia makes a comeback
