I'll never forget Crystal Pepsi not cause I liked it but for a totally weird different reason. I was like 13-14yrs old and on line at a grocery store check out where you see all those weird magazines filled with all kinds of fake stories. I was reading one about how to become rich. It told you to do some weird motions around your face making little crosses with your fingers. So I do it as a joke. On our way out the store we were passing a vending machine with Crystal Pepsi in it. I hit the button while walking by and a Crystal Pepsi actually popped out! I always thought that magazine was true and I waisted the power on a free Crystal Pepsi lol

We'd all pump our lunch money into that box and i would (pre-braces with crooked teeth) bite thru the side of the can like teen wolf and spray the stuff all over the place. A few years ago when it came back i managed to get a couple 20oz bottles of crystal pepsi from the only place i could find that carried it, cvs. I would still drink crystal pepsi if it were available, but sadly its gone again.

I never drank regular (non diet) soda (still don’t) but I was obsessed with Tab’s pink energy drink. It was still sold around 2006-2007 but then it disappeared. I loved that stuff!

I remember seeing a two litre bottle of this stuff in a store as a VERY young kid. I later told my "unit" about it, and they promptly proceeded to discount my story. Then they brought it back, and I KNEW my memory was real! I gotta say-- I don't know jack all about the original-- but I was IN LOVE with the new stuff!! People sayin' it was just pepsi without the color are dead wrong. Yeah, it TASTED like pepsi-- but it was a lot smoother and lighter. It was kind of like if your tongue could hear flavor, it would have been coming through an old low fi phone speaker. Shit was AMAZING and it PISSES ME OFF they shut it back down!!

Now that you have done this video I would love to see you do a history of Tab cola. I remember it when I was a kid, what happened. I always think of Back to the future when Marty asks for a Tab and the guy says he needs to order first. I love your videos! I am hoping you will do a timeline for every decade from 1900 on. No pressure... or the 50s on. 🤗You are great researcher, have an awesome voice and your tongue in cheek humour is why I follow you. Keep them coming and I will keep up the likes! 💖🤙
