 A number of years ago, just after I had moved to Chicago from Casper, Wyoming, a friend introduced me to the seasonal joys of what she called "Passover Pepsi." To the uninitiated, this is Pepsi that is reformulated with sugar rather than corn syrup so that the soft drink can remain kosher for Passover.I figured Pepsi is Pepsi -- but after one taste, I was convinced. In this episode of ChicagoScope, Leah, Dick and I conduct an informal taste test of regular kosher Coke and kosher-for-Passover Coke. Listen to hear which one wins. Related stories: Coke wary of rising prices for high fructose corn syrup. Leah mentions a Pizza Hut song. Listen to it here. How did Coca-Cola get to be kosher in he first place? And is it more complicated for Coke to be kosher for Passover? Brush up on your history. Learn more about keeping kosher at the Chicago Rabbinical Council site.
