I have a few:

Choco Tacos: some places have been rumored to have brought this back

Mountain Dew Pitch Black. Reintroduced and limited.

Heroes franchise/series. Creator is rumored to be bringing it back.

'I am not okay with this' Netflix series based on a grophic novel.

Wish I had tried Pepsi Blue. Grew up in the 90's but never tried it.

Edit to add: The OG version of GTA San Andreas uncensored. My buddy had a copy we would play but I never got my hands on a copy of my own. If owned this would be a collector'd item.

Never heard of Pepsi Blue but I remember Crystal Pepsi

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Pepsi Blue was actually in 2002 era. But as someone born in the 90s I should have at least heard of it. It was berry flavored they discontinued it 2004 which sucks. It would def make a good comeback.

I remember pepsi blue existing but I don't remember ever wanting to buy it. I did probably try it at some point, but neither of the restaurants I worked at during those years carried it.

Also the limited time Dr Pepper Dark Berry for Jurrasic World. Closest thing. When that came out I looked up sodas/colas that were berry flavored and discovered Pepsi Blue.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

idk if it's the same thing but in the UK we had a limited run of "electric" pepsi a few months ago that was dyed blue, everyone I know assumed they were just trying to shift a bad batch as a limited edition drink.

Was t crystal Pepsi just reg but clear. Did it taste different?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 weeks ago

It was sweeter. Like, you were expecting lemon-lime of Sprite or 7up, but you got the sugary caramel of Pepsi. Almost like clear cream soda, but without the strong vanilla flavor.

Tastes the exact same as regular Pepsi if I remember correctly

I remember it tasting just like Pepsi, but it was a little less syrupy in it's consistency. I loved the stuff as a kid.

'I am not okay with this'

God, yes! I don't actually know what any of the numbers are, but I'm convinced that if this hadn't come out during the pandemic we would have absolutely gotten more.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

I originally didnt know it came from a graphic novel. But the whole story just ends on a cliff hanger....

[–] altima_neo 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Pitch Black was my jam!

I prefer the original over Pitch Black II. But both are great. PBII tastes more like Baja Blast. The original was a lot more sour.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

OG Pitch Black was my favorite. They had it at a local gas station: Wawa near me last year not the second but the original. I loved it so much as a kid. I cut out the wrapper and the plastic from the bottle and flattened it and glued it to a magnet. Lol.

Heroes had a lot of potential. They should reboot it and take inspiration from JoJo's Bizarre adventure
