have not seen it in the stores yet, and the summer is almost over. I have been telling my kids I will let them try it when it comes out so they can taste what I had when I was a kid
This must not have hit my state, but it would be so cool to see a glass bottle again. I love the tote bag, too. I drink diet now, so it would be sweet to taste sugar again.
Good thing to come in glass bottles, always tastes better that way.
I like the idea that it is all natural. I miss cola in a glass bottle and think it tastes better from glass than plastic or a can so I will be looking for it in stores.
I want to try the Pepsi Natural Pork Roast that is on the recipie page but first I have to find the Pepsi Natural in a store near me.
I haven't tried Pepsi Natural yet, but I want to.

Here's a recipe I like:
Pepsi natural Pork Roast
3 - 5 lbs pork roast
1/4 cup soy sauce (or to taste)
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
12 oz Pepsi Natural
salt and pepper
Rub roast with salt and pepper and place in crock pot, add liquid. Cook on high 2 ½ to 3 hours, or on low 4 hours until internal temperature is 170 F. Remove done roast and add flour to remaining liquid a little at a time to make gravy. Add a package of frozen baby carrots or potato cubes about half way through the cooking time.

I have not seen this product in any stores yet.I will look harder.

I think I would try
Crockpot Pepsi Natural Ham
pcollins@cajunnet.com
Interesting. I haven't seen Pepsi natural around here, but Michael is a Pepsi addict so we might have to try this. Enter me!
Oh, and I tweeted this too. http://twitter.com/summerm/status/3450297796
It's hard to imagine a "natural" soda, since our experience with soda is the opposite. I'm definitely interested in trying it- and I'm a Coke girl, myself!
joshandjoanna at gmail
I'd like to try the bar abilene pepsi natural chili recipe- I can imagine it would be good.
Real sugar instead of Corn syrup is important to me. I prefer real sugar to the corn. I like the idea of natural instead of artificial coloring and flavorings.
I am going to enjoy drinking this when it shows up in my section of the state.

Bar Abilene Pepsi natural Chili
The sweetness from the coke also lends a bit of the coke flavor which seems to me to be a lightly roasted flavor.
Pepsi seems in my mind to be a good addition to chili.
I love pepsi in all of the different ways that they have made it. I can not wait to try this because they always make a wonderful product.
dunmees@aol.com
I just love the fact that it's all-natural ingredients include natural sugar. Sounds really great and would love to try it.

I Would love to try their Beer Can Chicken with pepsi natural Barbecue Sauce recipe.
Havent tried it yet, but I want to!! Thanks for the chance. mogrill@comcast.net
There's a Mexican restaurant that imports uh.....the other cola.... in the sugar cane formula. It is delicious. I'll assume this is great.

pcollins@cajunnet.com
The idea of making soda with sugar rather than high fructose corn syrup appeals to me. I would try Pepsi Natural if I had the chance, but I haven't seen it here.
Probably tastes pretty good
I tweeted! http://twitter.com/bakerchick103
Im a diet Pepsi girl, but I would try this just to compare to regular Pepsi.
I posted this http://www.facebook.com/friends/?ref=tn#/profile.php?id=1619690081&ref=profileon Facebook!
I went to the Pepsi Natural site, but it kept locking up on me.There was a recipe for Pot Roast that might be good. I didn't actually get to look at it, but I'll try again in a little while.
I have always love pepsi and I think its great how they are doing organic/recyclable/natural :)
melis4745@yahoo.com
No high fructose syrup sounds good to me.
I like Pepsi lite, the natural sounds good to me
I like the fact that it's made with real sugar instead of high fructose corn syrup.
This is very exciting- no plastic bottle and no corn syrup? I am going to search for pepsi natural for sure!
If i can find it I would try the ham glaze and maybe the barbecue sauce recipes.
ive been wanting to try this since i heard about it but cant seem to find it anywhere, i had the same problem with the throwback, i emailed pepsi and they sent me a list of stores that were carring it, i also asked the pepsi guy when i ran into him at the store, i guess im on the hunt again!!! love the recipies, so cool!!!
I can't wait to try Pepsi Natural with a squeeze of fresh lime. The description sounds really cool & I love that it comes in a glass bottle!
I haven't seen this around here either, but the glass bottles look awesome. Thanks for the opportunity!
cody_endres(at)hotmail(dot)com

Less high fructose corn syrup is always a good thing. It would be nice if more producers were to phase it out. Thanks for the chance to win the fun prize pack! (krstrpp at hotmail dot com)
I love Pepsi. I loved the Throwback and I am sure I will love Pepsi Natural. I haven't seen it at my store and can't wait.
I would love to try the pork roast. My pork roast never comes out right. But this recipe looks delish.

I think all soda should be in glass bottles. It just tastes better! I haven't tried Pepsi Natural yet.
I am SO excited about trying this!

I hope to see it in stores soon. I have been searching for a soda without HFCS. It gives sodas a nasty taste, not like the great flavor we remember when they were sweetened with real sugar.
It sounds good.

We are a Diet Pepsi family and I am so glad to see them putting an effort into Natural.

I'm interested in how this tastes. The c-store by us has "Mexican" Pepsi, which is supposed to be real canesugar.

Just like it has less of the chemicals that make a cola delicious
I haven't seen this anywhere in TN, and I've been looking all over after Throwback was discontinued.
Hopefully it'll be out in a few weeks - Throwback is due to return at the end of December and Natural would fill the space before then nicely!
I love that it uses sugar instead of corn syrup. I wish all the companies would go back to natural sugar.
I wasn't sure about it at first, I have issues with sweetener giving me migraines and I was questioning possible side effects of the new "natural sugar" but I bit the bullet and went for it and it actually tasted GREAT! AND no migraines!

Pepsi Natural sounds great, bring back the old times! We don't have it yet where we live but would love to try it!
I have not seen this nor heard of it. I'm going to ask the store manager if they will be getting any in soon.
I think that as people have less money for things like soda, companies are trying new things to get you to buy. Even though it seems healthier, I'm not sure if it is. My family likes it, so we will buy it.

I sounds good and I want to try it soon.
