So how's it taste?

Well folks the thing is it gives you the impression that it tastes good from the advertisement. Initially it does have an overpowering hard candy smell straight out of the microwave/other appliance you use to heat things up with. However once you throw other ingredients into that smell has the potential to smell awful. But even before I put the mellows in the cup I did have a quick swig of the drink. At first it was strong, almost flavorless. It tasted of Dr Pepper but a heck of a lot flatter. Then I put the diabetes-infested pillows into the mix and tried tasting the bit that have and haven't been touched by the colorful plague. They both tasted how you expected them to taste, flat and hot soda. Something I did notice however when it cooled down more was a stronger, horrible aftertaste enter my mouth that came with using corn syrup. It was disgusting, and lead me to dumping the rest out into the sink (the ad looks to be from about 1960s, in those days soda was still widely sweetened with regular sugar.)

So, what do I rate this experiment? I'd say about a 6/10. I appreciate Dr Peppers effort for trying something new but it didn't seem to work to well. Now could this be different with another type of pop? Maybe.
