What were they thinking?

Yesterday I caved to advertising and tried one of those new Diet Pepsi "Jazzy" flavors--this particular one was strawberries and cream. Yikes! What were they thinking? It tasted like a Pepsi float made out of strawberry ice cream...MELTED strawberry ice cream. I think that if I were responsible for coming up with innovative products, I'd be concentrating on interesting flavors...like rum (non-alcoholic, of course, for the kiddies and Utah consumers). Of course this didn't teach me anything... I'm sure the next random flavor that comes out will somehow speak to me and I'll be compelled to buy it. What a well-trained consumer I've become, thanks to all those Saturday morning cartoons.
