   Well, I just bought the new Cherry Coke and I did check the label rather
carefully and it read: Carbonated water, high fructose corn syrup and/or
sucrose, caramel color, phosphoric acid, natural flavors, caffeine.
This, by the way, is the same as that for regular new Coke and does thereby
prove (at least to me) that it made with the new formula Coke. 
   Personally, I do not mind the sweetness in the Cherry Coke as much as I
mind it in the new Coke.  My biggest complain about Cherry Coke is that it
loses its fizz after only a few minutes.  Otherwise I actually like this
Cherry Coke and if they were to put it in 16 ounce returnable bottles I would
probably buy it in huge quantities (so far I have only seen it in cans).
