- We go back in time to April 23rd, 1985, the day Coca-Cola introduced an updated and sweeter version of its flagship beverage, changing a secret Formula, first introduced in 1886. The product was officially called Coke, but the CEO at the time, Roberto Goizueta, insisted that the pop can display a banner with the word new on the side, and thus the unofficial moniker of New Coke became de facto official.

Pablo had the best new coke.
Coke changed its formula and produced a sweeter tasting beverage because Pepsi had been conducting blind taste tests and showing them in their TV advertisements for years which proved that people preferred the sweeter tasting Pepsi over Coke. As a Pepsi drinker, I didn't like the old Coke but loved the new Coke which ultimately failed.
If New Coke had just been released as a new product alongside the classic formula it probably wouldn’t have failed as spectacularly as it did part of the reason why it was a huge failure is because the company’s plan was to permanently replace the classic formula with the new one
Coke Zero is basically new Coke. I’ve seen it silently take over the shelves in stores.
It’s actually pretty insane how little regular Coke I see compared to Coke Zero.
Sure buddy, sure 😂
Imagine if companies these days acted more like that. Tried something, turned out to be a dumb idea, admitted it and corrected it. Not ideal but better than the arrogance we get these days.
New Coke: or would I like to call syrupy piss water
"You will like what we TELL you to like!" -Every major corporation ever, to this day
1896 🤩Good Times
Yeah and the put "Classic" on their stupid cans until like 2017
Dont see crowds of kids emptying the shelfs like PRIME.
COKE & Pepsi have no hype, and only one flavour.
As pepski once said, its my generation.
Two generations ago
Am I the only one who preferred the new coke ?
c o n k
In the future we all drink Coke III.
Its budlight moment
Damn we got new coke before gta 6
Pretty sure you got it before GTA 1 as well.
The arch delux was ahead of its goddamn time
an engineer ended up in the same lift as the executives of the company and the CEO, one day after they had made the change to New Coke, he recognised them and asked for their autographs.
After they had signed one of the executives asked why, he responded with “I just got the signature of the three dumbest men alive in America”.
Shortly after they changed Coke back.
Woohoo! New way to get Diabeetus. Let me be first.
*Bill Cosby said is was the best! Crystal PEPSI was just plain gross!* 💡
Bill Cosby had good taste.
I'd be worried about this. Do they have Appeal in there or something else Gates thought of feeding people.
Happy Saint George's Day! 🏴🌹
Never mess with what got you there. Bud Light had to learn this lesson the hard way too.
Did bud light change their recipe? I don’t get it

"switches."
Coke... if it's not broke.
Break it.
Then give them back the old version.
Silly peasants.
How are the peasants silly?
Are you referring to the board of coke as peasants?
@rolandnelson6722 ,
Nope. We are the peasants.
Coke's sales were slumping a bit.
They took away the main product their customers liked.
Pissed them off. Generated a whole bunch of press for how great the original product was.
Then they "graciously" gave back the old product, and people were buying it like crazy. Sales went back up.
It was a genius manipulation tactic.
People never want something more than when they can't have it.
People who want to try the NEW coca-cola

Clickbait 👎
A new unhealthy shitwater? Pass.
