Pepsi has created a natural drink with some striking ingredients. The “concoction” is called Pepsi Raw. Apple extract, plain caramel colouring, coffee leaf, tantaric acid from grapes, gum arabic from acacia trees, cane sugar and sparkling water. Sounds a lot better than corn syrup and phosphoric acid if you ask me. Apparently it’s a little less fizzy and likely doesn’t create havoc with your system quite as much as regular cola. But that probably doesn’t matter to us here in the United States because it may not see the light of day here.

So it makes me wonder, does Pepsi require a petition of 10,000 signatures before they might let us enjoy it. I doubt the U.S. is ignored because the test market failed. Why? Because people drink everything here, even ridiculous bottled water. Jone’s Soda makes a killing on the turkey cola. Are we not good enough for Pepsi Raw? Hey if that’s the case, then fine. Just own up to it Pepsi. Tell us American’s that we are slobs and will never understand the discerning English palate.
