LOL ya thats what I was thinking too.
For those not old enough to remember, a whole bunch of years ago, coke thought they were smart and changed the coke formula (how it tasted).
It was a very stupid move, from what I remember sales of coke were going down something like 40 percent in the first month. Not too many people actually liked the new taste
So they quickly brought out "Classic Coke" which was coke with the old formula and it was out selling the new coke 3 to 1 (and that started to rise to 4 to 1 then 5 to 1) so they did away with "New Coke"
