New Coke (Coke II) - A History
Did you know that Coca-Cola once changed the flavor of Coke and called it New Coke? Well, if you were a red-blooded American soda drinker in the mid-1980s, you definitely knew about it, and you were most likely very angry that it happened.
This week, Justin and Steve go on a globe-trotting soda taste test while exploring one of the weirdest corporate decisions ever made in an effort to fix a problem that didn't exist. It was a misguided move that almost brought down the most popular soft drink of all time. Will they find answers? Probably. Will they get tummy aches? Definitely.
Show Note: Nukie is suffering from cyclosporiasis and is replaced by Ellen Gutoskey as producer.
