The remind me of a deli chip. Best Honey BBQ chips ever.
Good to know, thanks. We will probably be over that way once a month or so for Costco.
When I was a kid in the 70s I visited a friend next door and all they had for soda was Tab (his mother was dieting at the time).
Since then, I've always had a liking for Tab. Of course, now it's gone.
Reminds me of the Bob Goldthwait joke. He use to drink Tab on stage in the 90s, and people would say he should do ads for Tab.
"Yeah. Hi. When I'm not making fun of the Pope or Christ, I like to drink Tab!"
Anyone who saw his act would think that joke is hilarious.
Since we are on the topic, who is drinking the diet version versus the sugar version? I have avoided a trillion calories steering clear of the sugared version. I remember the first time I stumbled across a sugar free version about 1980ish at a pizza joint in South Texas.
And who basically spits out the sugared version when they get it by accident when ordered at their favorite fast food location? Recently I brought home a case of the newer Pepsi No Sugar in a black can. Both the wife and I are liking the taste variation which is subtle.

Can’t stand the full fat version of any of them. Far too sweet for me. I like the taste of Diet Coke as it’s less sweet. Coke Zero is made to taste like normal Coke so not a fan.Since we are on the topic, who is drinking the diet version versus the sugar version?

3/4 Macrumors users prefer X soft drink! Apple and X a refreshing mix.
The OP can add as many as they like, but it would be interesting to see the split.
Suck on an American nickel for a moment.
That's the aftertaste I get (to a lesser degree).
"To rationalize the off-tastes of the AS, we tested whether they could act on the somatosensory system by targeting TRPV1 receptors. In summary, we found that TRPV1 receptors are activated by both AS and selected metal salts and therefore can have a role in their irritating and metallic aftertaste perceptions."

Why Do Sugar Substitutes Leave an Aftertaste? (Explained) - My Delicious Sweets
To maintain our health and fitness levels, more and more of us decide to eliminate sugar from our diet. Sweet flavors can be achieved using several natural and artificial sweeteners instead of sugar. Sugar substitutes are low in calories and have a low glycemic index. However, many people...
