Well the pops are sweeter and the taste is new

They're shot with sugar through and through.

Suits me just fine. hfcs gives me heart burn and it would be better turned into ethanol for our cars and power plants. There was never anything fundamentally wrong with sugar untill the discovery of saccharin.

I find it somewhat amusing that the selling point was sugar at one time and now they're backing away. No wonder why we're so cynical.
