I admit there's a possibility that I got a bad batch, but, boy, what I've tried tastes like it was filtered through underwear that's fermented a while. Seriously, it was that bad. Pepsi says no one else has complained about the batch, so I have to think this is the way it's supposed to be. Blech. And I was one of those who, when Throwback first came out, would scout the stores and buy a ton of it, enough to last until the next limited release. Not any more. Pepsi has lost a long-tome fan.
