I take it classic Coke is just normal, fat Coke but what is new Coke?

New Coke is Coke with a different formula. It was introduced in 1985 and turned out to be a big marketing blunder. People hated it that Coke reverted to it's traditional formula which is now Coca-Cola Classic.
shareWas it really a marketing blunder or was it one of the greatest marketing ploys of all time ? Sales of Coke took a huge spike AFTER the re release of "Classic Coke" They more than made up the losses of New Coke and never dropped .

I wish they would go back to the flat top cans, those looked so cool in the 80s!

Ahh, the great Coke conspiracy! If true, what a master scheme... and gutsy move.
I remember the fallout from "New" Coke very well. I recall it tasting like a bland, almost flat, Pepsi knock-off (I say this as a Pepsi man). Would love to be able to taste it now to see if my memory is right.
As I said, we were a Pepsi household, but when they brought "Classic" Coke back, man, we snatched it up and drank it like nectar from the Gods.
