Tp4 is not sure why ya'll h8 high fructose kr0n sryup.  ;D

It's mostly HFCS in the US sodas as well.


Cane sugar is usually slightly less sweet than HFCS so they have to put more in it to achieve the same sweetness.

But it's benchmarked against a taste profile,  the physical number doesn't underpin anything.

I used to drink large amounts of both, with no preference toward either.

Now, in Pepsi over here, some sugar has been replaced with artificial sweeteners, and that is a no-go for me. I'm talking about the regular Pepsi, not any diet soda or "Pepsi MAX".

Coca Cola here is still all sugar, but they sell their Zero more, and some flavour varieties are only available with artificial sweeteners.
I don't know if I'm imagining it or not, but it feels to me like the regular one tastes a little different now: as if the flavour had been adjusted to be closer to the one with artificial sweeteners.
I had even sent some cans back for a refund after that happened.

My favourite has instead become a cheaper domestic variety that taste more like "cola bottle candy".

Thankfully, no high-fructose corn syrup over here.

Now, we know mechanically Pepsi was winning the pepsi challenge because they are sweeter than Coke.  People naturally gravitate towards sweetness.

But also Pepsi is more frooty,  whereas coke is more bitter/medicine-y

Thuogghts?  :D

i agree, but i am sure, one could attach the cork to the housing instead of the stem. but the danger of the cork starting to crumble might be to high.

why did you choose to not match the colors with TA90 as announced in the IC?
I think the colors section was poorly worded.
Masje is colormatching to a TA G81-3011HAD, not the 2015 set. TA90 was also colormatched to a G81-3011HAD so the colors should be very similar.
Worth noting that TA90, while much better than the 2015 set, was a tiny bit off with it's grey (can see if you zoom in on the first pic here https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=96387.msg2685960#msg2685960) so there is still some room for improvement.

excellent. thank you very much for your reply. I'm officially in!

now that the GB is shipping, is anyone able to post a comparison kit between GMK black and gold and KKB kintsugi? I'm referring specifically to the accented keys/spacebars, which I missed for B&G.
