[quote name=\'adamjk\' date=\'Apr 7 2004, 04:32 PM\'] During the Fast Money round, one of the questions was: Name a good drink for dieters. The second person, said Diet Pepsi. It didn't gain any points. The #1 answer was Diet soda. Now correct me if I am wrong, but isn't Diet Pepsi and Diet Soda more or less the same thing? It didn't matter however, as the family won the money anyway, it just surprised me. [/quote]
I guess the argument that could be made is that "Diet Pepsi" [Wasn't it still Pepsi Free then anyhow?] is a diet cola, while a "diet soda" could be anything from 7up to Cheerwine.
That's how I see it, anyhow.

Pepsi Free and its sister Diet Pepsi Free (Pepsi sans caffeine, now known as Caffeine-Free Pepsi) didn't debut until 1982, the Feud episode in question was from 1977. Diet Pepsi and Pepsi Light were on store shelves in 1977.

Yes, and for those curious, Pepsi Light is our current version of Pepsi with lemon. I remember it being a turquoisi-light blue can.

.........and, umm, I remember the dismal failure known as Crystal Pepsi, c. 1992.
ObGameShow: Shasta was a popular game show consolation soda.

Okay, ya got me. Being a big fan of TVLand, I thought I'd be able to get through this whole thread without doing something like this...but what the heck is Cheerwine?
And I liked Crystal Pepsi...
