    It all rots your teeth so ill stick with my robbinsons orange juice

    Theres an episode of MythBuster usually on channel 38 around 7pm weekdays on freeview. that deals with cokes and what it does to teeth. coke over a period of 24hrs rots a steak, but does nothing at all to teeth, they even broke it down to the main ingredients and to see which one does the rotting of meat.
    It may surprise you to know that acid in oranges and other fruit like apples, lemon does more damage to your teeth and coke.
    as it breaks down the enamel on the teeth over time.
    and with the other ingredients they add to robinsons orange juice makes it worse for your teeth. just remember to take a stick of chewing gum after drinking a class.
    as saliva breaks down the acids.

    SO angry at this, I don't drink "diet" drinks because they taste like crap, are potentially carcinogenic, and actually cause weight GAIN, not loss.

    Pepsi-muppets.

    You know you shouldn't believe everything you read in the papers, don't you? :p

    It's only sugar-water so who cares if they discontinue it?
  • No. They aren't.

    /end thread.

    yes, they are.

    There's a video which quite clearly states that Next WILL replace original pepsi.

    Who made the video, is it on the Pepsi website?

    Provide evidence, from Pepsi themselves. Until then I stand by my original comments.

    Full fat Pepsi is NOT being discontinued.

    Other variations of Pepsi have been discontinued over the years, such as Pepsi Blue, because they were not big sellers. Do you really believe that Pepsi will discontinue its biggest selling product for a diet drink? That would be ridiculous.
