Review of Pepsi Max by stuleg

Advantages: Nice flavour
Disadvantages: Artificial ingredients

...when I found out that Pepsi made a low calorie drink aimed squarely at the male market. Yes I know that it is perfectly legal for us chaps to consume diet Pepsi or diet Cola but I always found it a little embarrassing asking for the aforementioned beverages. I always felt that somehow my masculinity was being called into question if I entered a shop and picked up the diet version of any drink, real men simply don’t consume diet drinks. That is until ...
...walk along the street swigging Pepsi Max people are bound to think “there’s a man who obviously lives life to the full and is not afraid to try something a little daring”. I can live with that sort of adulation from my fellow beings. So, a go getting, fashionable drink needs a decent look, and the can is suitably trendy. Royal blue and black the predominant colours arranged haphazardly on the can with the Pepsi logo and MAX writ large in a red graffiti ... Read review

A Soft Drink for Hard Men
Review of Pepsi Max by proxam

Advantages: Wet, fizzy and taste of cola
Disadvantages: Too fizzy

...so it was that Diet Pepsi was unceremoniously replaced by PEPSI MAX. I read somewhere that the idea behind this drink was that men are apparently a little shy when asking for Diet Pepsi as they think it's not quite macho to order low-cal drinks. That'd be the same men who spend a fortune on moisturizers, hair products and other such grooming aids? A person with a more sardonic outlook than myself might think a big company like pepsico just bring ...
...would say, therefore, that Diet Pepsi and PEPSI MAX are essentially just the same drinks...y'know, sugar-free carbonated water with some sort of gloopy, flavour-enhanced, preservative-loaded, sugar-deprived, syrup added to it. Nothing could be further from the truth...my, but you're a cynical lot, aren't you? For a start, the 330ml can is a different colour - royal blue and black as opposed to silver, with MAX splashed boldly across it to save any ... Read review

Trilogy of Terror - Part I
Review of Pepsi Max by craigy_baby_2000

Advantages: Diet drink, good taste, good fizziness factor
Disadvantages: Bad for you, unhealthy, addictive, can get expensive

...cost me! First up is Pepsi Max, which, I have to say, is my favourite of all fizzy drinks. I usually drink about a litre of the stuff per day, and have done so since its release by Pepsi in 1993. Pepsi Max was initially released as a way of making diet drinks fashionable, the idea being that ‘living life to the Max’ is being as outrageous as possible in life, and that this drink helps promote that madness and popularity. The adverts containing ...
...exactly is it?--- Well, Pepsi Max is a cola that unlike Pepsi Diet, which, unsurprisingly is also made by Pepsi, manages to regain a lot of its cola-like sweet taste that you find in full-sugar colas, despite the fact that it contains absolutely no sugar and very few calories. It is, in effect, an alternative to Pepsi Diet, but with a much nicer taste, one that is much fruitier and juicier, and not as bland. It comes in 330ml cans (priced at around ... Read review

Review of Pepsi Max by super_stevo

Advantages: a sugar free drink that quenches your thirst
Disadvantages: not to everyones taste

...for the topic of discussion, Pepsi Max.What the devil is it? ***************************************************** It is quite obviously part of the "Pepsi family".Ahhh I just love family reunions!.It pushes all the right buttons as normal Pepsi but is good to the ears when you are told that it is sugar free.Yeh thats right sugar FREE!You could say that this product has so much whizz it is like pushing a hospital bed down a toboggan run.Yeh it's ...
...for a 200ml can of Pepsi max and can buy multipacks of 6,12 and 24 and also a one and two litre botle with the prices ranging from shop to shop and with all the deals and special offers going on you can pick it up at reasonable prices. Pepsi max has been well advertised and still is on our tv screens.Top football stars from all round europe are used to advertise this product to give it world wide credibility and I think it works very well. ******************** ...

Pop, pop, pop musicola
Review of Pepsi Max by Dardalius

Advantages: Great tasting and sugar free
Disadvantages: Other people drink my stash

...at least it was until Pepsi Max came on the scene. Strutting out in traditional Pepsi colours (Or is that colors) with a fab logo and cool add campaign (remember the surf style dudes and the one where he chases what I seem to remember as a Jaguar, because it had made of with his can, ‘Bad kitty’ I think) it certainly looked like a winner. Of course I didn’t believe it, when had diet ever tasted good before, I would not be fooled… You're history ...
...sooth an upset stomach! Pepsi max contains: Carbonated Water, Colour (Caramel), Artifical Sweeteners (Aspartame, Acesulfame K), Phosphoric Acid, Flavourings (Including: Caffeine), Preservative (Sodium Bensoate), Citric Acid. Drinks like this offer no actual nutritional value (meaning they won’t mess up a diabetics blood sugar balance), but do contain caffeine (hyperactive children don’t need sugar to party). I'm not sure of the effects all these ... Read review
