Blak

Years ago, visiting my parents back in Pennsylvania, I noticed their local supermarket was carrying something called "Kona Pepsi." It was a new coffee-flavored Pepsi brand being tested on the shelves. And what did it taste like? Imagine someone poured you a big cup of coffee, dumped out the coffee, and then poured in Pepsi without first rinsing the mug. In other words: disgusting.

So has anyone actually tried the new Coke Blak, Coca-Cola's belated (and stupidly named) attempt at a coffee-flavored cola? Who were the geniuses that thought that would fly?

Yes. It tastes like day-old espresso mixed with day-old coke. It is utterly nasty, but strangely compelling, kinda like bad porn.

I'm torn: Wesley Snipes says to always bet on black (Passenger 57), but Coke Blak really really tastes like shit.
