Low Carb-A-Rama

So, the Cola Wars™ are hotting up again, this time aiming at those unfortunate enough to be on the carb controlled Fatkins Atkins Diet with the introduction of Coke C2 and Pepsi Edge…

Coke C2 is a foul tasting, bordering on disgusting, browny reddish liquid that’s half the carbs, half the calories of regular Coke, or “Coke Classic,” none of the “Coke” taste and 200% more gas… Oh boy is it gassy…

Now Pepsi Edge offers the exact same promises, half carbs and calories etc. OK, that’s all very good and well, but surely Pepsi One with it’s 1 calorie and zero carbs combination would be a much better alternative to Pepsi Edge’s 50 calories and 13 carbs…

Wouldn’t you think?

So what exactly is the point of Pepsi Edge? Selling a product on it’s low calories and low carbs combination doesn’t make sense when you have another product that has next to no calories and carbs…

Or is it just me?

    I had a similar reaction to Coke C2. I wrote a 1000 word essay about it on my blog.

    coke once had a product out called Coke 2. im not sure wether or not it followed to same formula as Pepsi One, but i remember it being fairly mild in carbonation and in between taste remniscent of how Pepsi One fairs to Diet Pepsi and original Pepsi formula. just some food for thought
