I only saw the Taste Test once, at our annual Exhibition.  It was set up to
imply "get it right & win a prize"(i.e. pick Pepsi & spin the prize wheel for
a $0.0003 doodad or a "Buy 20, get onehalf off" coupon.

I took a sip of the first glass (Blech! Poopsi!), then ate the crackers (I
asked for extra! *LOL* then drank the second glass (ahh, that cleared the
taste up nicely, clearly Coke); looking sat the prize wheel, wit my eye on 
one of them, I pointed to the first glass & said "that one" (I never said it
was best, just that it was the one with the slogans all over the booth); spun
wheel, won bupkes. . .

Now I just skip them if I see the booths,as I don't want to subject my poor
taste buds to such yichk.

Not in Canada - no draft as far back as I recall.

I bet.  I've tried the newer diet concoctions (only when no real Coke in
cooler, obvi) & NASTY!!! 

Aspartame leaves a horrid after taste. . . & it's poison (a neurotoxin used
illegally for brainwashing)

Yup,ended before my time, in 1951.

They have Cherry Coke, Lime Coke, Peach Coke. . .

Hey, Coca Cola, if you MUST add stuff to your drink, how about putting the
cocaine back into it!
