Late last year, Pepsi filed a trademark for Pepsi Raw, a product aimed at the crowd preferring natural drinks. Raw will be made with all natural ingredients, opting for pure sugar cane over high-fructose corn syrup.
While science studies do not conclusively show that high-fructose corn syrup is any worse than sugar, my suspicions were raised upon seeing a graph showing the trend between corn syrup consumption and obesity. I think its great that this drink will be all natural as well as bottled in smaller bottles. Soda is great every now and then, but Americans drink entirely too much. I imagine current bottle sizes lead to some of this over-consumption. Hopefully Pepsi Raw will do well in Britain and appear on this side of the Atlantic.
