To tell the real stuff in the cans, just check out the
ingredient list:

New Crap (Probably printed in black upper case):
CARBONATED WATER, HIGH FRUCTOSE
CORN SYRUP AND/OR SUCROSE,
CARAMEL COLOR, PHOSPHORIC ACID,
NATURAL FLAVORS, CAFFEINE.

The REAL Thing (Probably printed in white lower case):
Carbonated water, sugar,
caramel color, phosphoric acid,
natural flavorings, caffeine.

Accept no imitations!  This new stuff tastes like ****!
It's harder to tell on the bottles, because the
ingredients list is on the cap, and they're trying to
use up all the old caps.  Somebody ought to sue for
false advertising.  As I bought the last 4 cases of
cans I could find, I told the checker at Safeway that I
would return them if I found any mislabelled cans in
the lot.  She nodded understandingly.

God, what am I going to do when I run out?

So flame me for posting to net.general -- I don't care,
I'm only going to live another two weeks, anyway.
