I remember when they made the switch, but it was so long ago, I don't remember how New Coke tasted. I do have friends who swear up and down that when they reverted to Coke Classic, the recipe had changed somehow.
Yeah, it tastes like flat fountain Coke. I think what they did is they took out all the good stuff (like the ingredients that could strip paint and clean pennies), and someone in marketing said, "hey, if we take away carb(onation) we can say we took away carbs."
But on the other hand it isn't as bad as New Coke was, which was a half-assed attempt to imitate Pepsi.
