There is a reason it was on clearance.

I picked up a new soda on clearance this morning. I thought, "It's 1/2 price - why not try it?"

It is the Airforce Nutrisoda, pomegrante + blackberry flavored. It is nasty. I just took a big swig and it tasted just like carbonated cough syrup. Yuck.

In answering my own question, the "why not?" is that the market forces have already spoken and deemed that the soda isn't worth buying.
