Where can I try some New Coke?!


Question: As you probably already know, Coke came out with "New Coke" in the 1980s and it was a complete failure. So they basically stopped making it and brought back the classic Coke formula. For some reason, I'm really interested in how bad this New Coke must have tasted for everyone to hate it so much. Is there any way I can get my hands on some? : D

It really wasn't BAD, it just wasn't as good; and the outrage of messing with an American institution, in a way, blew it out of proportion. It just tasted sweeter and a bit more flat, really.

Evidently it still exists in a few obscure places (according to Wikipedia, it's available in American Samoa under the Coke II name), but if you don't live there, try drinking a Pepsi that's gone slightly flat and you'll probably be pretty close to the taste.

Try Ebay they had Crystal pepsi on there a while back so
maybe they have New Coke.

wow i love coke id like to try that too..

absolutely not. if it is discontinued. it means that it is discontinued. so its probably discontinued. therefore it was discontinued.

im interested in the OLD coke. lol . you do know where the name came from right

WELL look in the streets wer gang bangahz are,& buy a few from dem, than u wil taste coke, but look around the world, go to compton cali, detroit, NYC, etc

You can't buy any that is safe to drink. I had it, it was ok....nothing thrilling.

my mate john he can sort you out wiv some good coke good prices aswell

You probably can't find it, Coke destroyed it. I think it was that awful. It tasted like wantabe Pepsi. If I had wanted an imitation cola I would have bought Pepsi.....

I have a friend by the name of Dr. Emitt Brown who recently invented a time machine in the form of a 1985 GMC DeLorean. I'll ask him if I can borrow it sometime and we can go back to the 80s and try some.
