i never tried the stuff... is it just some kinda berry flavored carbonated soda?

why call it "pepsi" anything if the main ingredient isn't pepsi? i mean it's not "pepsi mountian dew code red" or "pepsi 7 up"

now wild cherry pepsi i understand... it's pepsi w/ wild cherry flavoring right? pepsi blue isn't "pepsi with blue crap in it" is it?

As bad as it tastes, I can't see it doing very well.

To each his own, I guess :)

brand recognition.. but I see your point.

I liked the first bottle I had, but I didn't like the second.. Not sure why.

yeah i can see the whole brand recognition thing, but can't they say like "blue, by the makers of pepsi" or something?

Man, its about time pepsi came up with a nice product. It has been a long time since they released a good tasting product.

Is it even still around? I don't even remember the last time I noticed it in a store.

i miss crystal pepsi...

That stuff lasted for what, one month?

I never understood the thinking behind that product. I mean who said, "I really would love an ice cold Pepsi, but I can't decide between the regular or the crystal. I mean they taste so much different."

Pepsi Blue sales soar... at least in Novemver 2002. The article states that Pepsi Blue achieved a half a year of projected sales in one month.

But, like others here, I miss Crystal Pepsi. It tasted like roses.
