Maybe this has already been posted, but I've heard a rumor that Pepsi is testing a new product in Japan that isn't as sweet as the current formula. But when asked, Pepsi denies this. I heard this from a friend; has anybody out there heard something about this? Mark Draughn

But when asked, Pepsi denies this. It was in the papers about two weeks ago; two cans of Pepsi with 'NEW', etc. on them. The accompanying article said that the pictographics said something to the effect of "New Taste - You Decide". As you said, Pepsi corporate is keeping their mouths shut tightly.

Having just returned from Japan, I can say that Cherry Coke is there, along with "Coke Light". Probably just another name for a same thing (Coke Light is a diet cola). Coke seems to be quite a bit bigger there than Pepsi. David Sze Bell Communications Research
