The Crystal Pepsi Trail

So, Crystal Pepsi is now available in Canada. Aug 8 it will be available for a limited time in the U.S. I think I read eight weeks.

In the meantime, I went ahead and tried my luck at The Crystal Pepsi Trail. (www.CrystalPepsi.net) Surprisingly, I survived and made it to the end to receive my PepsiPass code. Unfortunately, my Tamagotchi died of dysentery.

That was fun! Those malls are dangerous though.

- @MzSooze Ditto. I did make it all the way though, with just me and one other.
  one carried off by creepy crawlers, one lost in the mall, and one stayed behind to bury my tomogatchi…

I never tried it when it was out a few decades ago.
Is it a clear cola? I really prefer Coke, though I rarely drink any pop. Beer is better for you.

- @daveinwarsh yep, clear Pepsi. I remember it tasting something like Pepsi, but the lack of food dye was off putting to many.

- @daveinwarsh they had a commercial for it, play “Right Now” by Van Halen that used to play non-stop. For the life of me, I cannot remember if I ever tried it.

- @daveinwarsh to me, it tasted more cinnamon-ish than like pepsi… not quite like the “Holiday spice” pepsi they had a few years back, but not far off of it…

I used to call it “Dolphin Safe Soda.” Oft-times it was the last thing still in stock down in the geedunk machines.

I ran into a furby and it said a bunch of stuff that translated into wanting to kiss me and hug me and drink crystal pepsi and then it said something about me needing to look and listen to a rock?
