When did Jones Soda switch back to HFCS?
I bought 4 bottles of my favorite Jones "Pure Cane" Cream Soda a few days ago at Safeway and noticed it tasted like crap and gave me a stomach ache. Wouldn't you know it, the second ingredient is freaking HFCS, no pure-cane anything.

DAMMIT! Even the simple pleasures are going corporate.

1. I don't think they've switched back
The switch was supposed to occur throughout this year--maybe you got stuck with some old inventory.

2. I'm going to try to take it back
I hope you're right, because I love the real stuff.

3. They didn't...
It sounds like you got some old stock.

4. That would be about the worst marketing move ever.
NEW Jones?

Blah

5. That's weird... all their stuff I've seen has either been pure cane, or no sugar at all.
I've tried the green apple with no sugar, I'm trying it with tonight. Which reminds me, I should get the can out of the freezer before it explodes... :P
