pandarilla Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Delighted for G_Man.Just a warning - years of artificial sweetener abuse has left me thinking real sugar drinks taste rank.

pandarilla Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Are you making a point about corn syrup, or just curious about what sugary drinks my palate doesn't like anymore?Erm, I was just curious. I don't drink any sugar free stuff, I've just moved from bru to coke for the last year or two. Are you saying that you don't like full fat stuff anymore, and you've got used to sugar free versions - or is coke not made from real sugar and so now I'm worried I won't like this new/old bru. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't really stomach any of the real sugar soft drinks now - don't like the taste, and the consistency is even worse. They feel like drinking treacle. I forgot which country I was in for a minute - in the US, most of the fizzy drinks have switched to corn syrup instead of cane sugar over the years (because it's cheaper), and quite a few folk complain about being able to taste the difference. Oddly, I prefer the new US versions, so clearly my tastebuds are utterly borked now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONKMAN Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Why are people delighted for G_Man? He’s one of the scabs that continued to buy the shite stuff, and put this delightful development at risk. It’s the true boycotters that that took one sip of the rancid new recipe and vowed never to drink it again, forcing the share price tumbling, that deserve the praise and well wishes. I shall be stocking up greatly, with this sugary sweet elixir. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 He was so traumatised by his loss that he sank to the very depths. If it hadn't been New Bru, he'd have ended up on the heroin or similar. Take pity. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin.Hood Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 I'm sorry. However I did move on to Sprite. Until I see irn bru back on the shelves ( real McCoy) then I will believe it. Stock piling will be the must and xmas present would be ideal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pandarilla Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Am I the only person who thinks it all tastes the same?No presumably not. But folk's taste buds are very different. I think if you drunk quite a lot you can tell the difference (I certainly can). But plenty of folk have noticed nothing and carried on regardless. I envy those people. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stupid c***s clearly had no idea or appreciation of what they were drinking to begin with. It is better to have loved and lost etc....What you are describing there is "British Pub for a roast dinner on Sunday" whilst on holiday types. Scum. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
