Almost.
In 2009 PepsiCo introduced the “Throwback” line of natural-sugar flavored sodas, . . . specifically Pepsi Throwback and Mountain Dew Throwback, . . . in 5-week limited releases. DonDiego can attest that it was delicious.
On March 11, 2011, PepsiCo announced that both Pepsi Throwback and Mountain Dew Throwback would become permanent additions to their product line. In December 2010 sugar flavored Sierra Mist Natural made an appearance; it is also in the permanent PepsiCo lineup now.
Dr. Pepper has joined the party introducing Heritage Dr. Pepper in November 2009.
Although Mexican Coke is not officially sold in the US, it can be found under-the-counter throughout the SouthWest, or by one who knows someone with access to a Mexican Coke speakeasy. And Coca-Cola does sell Kosher Coca-Cola for the Jewish Passover Holiday, as corn and, hence, corn-syrup is kitnyot to the Ashkenazim during this season.
Oh, . . . and as the cost of high-fructose corn syrup rise, . . . largely because of the rise in the price of corn, . . . largely because of the Government subsidy to ethanol producers, . . . one might expect more sugar flavored pleasures to reappear.
About the bottles, . . . DonDiego doubts that glass will replace the plastic or even metal containers, in spite of the fact that silicon is more abundant than aluminum. Glass weighs more, and transport costs are likely to increase in the future.
Everything comes to he who waits.
