Advantages: I REALLY STRUGGLE TO FIND ANY, CHEAP I SUPPOSE

Disadvantages: TASTE!! ITS VILE, WORST THING EVER!

Tesco Value Cola is possibly the worst product I think there is out there on the market, I simply can't think of anything worse. Unless you're a completely barking mad you must sense something's wrong before picking up the bottle and placing it in your shopping trolley. You look at the price 19p and you must think there's been a pricing error or something because 19p for a 2 litre bottle of water is cheap let alone for a bottle of supposedly cola. This is in a whole different league, in price that is, to its other competitors up to £1.00-1.50 cheaper. At 19p you may say well its only a bit of spare change it doesn't matter if it's not so good, but I strongly advise you to keep your spare change because even at 19p it's a total rip off. The only reason I have tasted this foul acidic liquid is because I thought it was coke and so drank it, as soon as the liquid entered my mouth I could tell it wasn't the real thing. I asked my wife what it was and she explained she thought it was a good idea to buy the Tesco Value cola as it was so much cheaper. I know we're in a recession and everything but stay well clear.
The thing I don't get it, how an earth do they produce this product for this ridiculously small price. The packaging must be half that alone. The bottle is very plain and simple as you would expect clear plastic with a white screw lid. The label has the Tesco Value products design printed on it 2litres of Cola drink. Well that in my opinion is laughable. If you look at the ingredients it contains vast numbers of e-numbers and preservatives which can't be cheap so I find it a mystery that they can price it at 19p.
Let's get down to the taste then. Well it's the complete opposite of cola it has a strange acidic chemical flavour with a nonexistent fizz. It leaves behind a gritty feeling on your teeth which you can tell is removing all of your enamel and a sugary substance all down your throat. You can feel it in your stomach eating away at your insides; it can't be doing you any good. It smells exactly like one of those chemical glow sticks, if you've ever smelt one of them you'll know it's not an inviting taste. Coke is fizzy, but this stuff certainly isn't, it loses its fizz within seconds and then you're left with an even fouler tasting solution of brown flat water. Even if you're on a low budget I would strongly suggest going for the real stuff when it comes to coke as this cheap liquid is not worth a second glance.
You want my advice stay well clear and stick to the real stuff, or drink something else anything else just not this!

Summary: A CHEAP, TACKY, ACID DRINK..... STAY WELL CLEAR!
