Like Cola (original) (raw)
Like Cola was a cola soft drink, introduced by the 7 Up company (then under the ownership of Philip Morris), that appeared in the American market in 1982. Its slogan was "Made From The Cola Nut." Like Cola was one of the first attempts at a low-caffeine cola, containing 1% caffeine. It was packaged in a red and blue can. A diet version was also available, with the color scheme reversed. Like Cola was also packaged in 1 pint (16 ounce) clear bottles embossed with shooting stars. The Like name was first used from 1963 to 1969 for 7 Up's diet lemon-lime soda which was renamed Diet 7 Up.

dbo:abstract | Like Cola was a cola soft drink, introduced by the 7 Up company (then under the ownership of Philip Morris), that appeared in the American market in 1982. Its slogan was "Made From The Cola Nut." Like Cola was one of the first attempts at a low-caffeine cola, containing 1% caffeine. It was packaged in a red and blue can. A diet version was also available, with the color scheme reversed. Like Cola was also packaged in 1 pint (16 ounce) clear bottles embossed with shooting stars. Like Cola was the major sponsor of one of the races in the 1983 NASCAR Winston Cup Series that occurred on July 24 of that year – the Like Cola 500 at Pocono Raceway in Long Pond, Pennsylvania. Tim Richmond won that race. Commercials for the product featured comedian Tim Conway and actor Kevin Dobson as spokespersons. Because several 7 Up bottlers also distributed colas such as Coca-Cola, Pepsi-Cola or eventual 7 Up sister drink RC Cola (which introduced another caffeine-free cola, RC 100, in 1980) they refused to distribute Like Cola – limiting its availability. The Like name was first used from 1963 to 1969 for 7 Up's diet lemon-lime soda which was renamed Diet 7 Up. (en) Like Cola was een onsuccesvol colamerk dat in 1982 op de Amerikaanse markt verscheen. Het werd geïntroduceerd door 7Up, dat destijds eigendom was van Philip Morris, met als slogan "Made From The Cola Nut." Like Cola was een van de eerste (bijna-)cafeïnevrije cola's en was ook verkrijgbaar in een light-variant. De gewone versie had een rode verpakking met blauwe letters; bij de light-variant was dit kleurenschema omgekeerd. Like Cola was feitelijk maar voor 99% cafeïnevrij; op dat moment bestond er nog een wettelijke verplichting voor iedere cola om op zijn minst een kleine hoeveelheid cafeïne te bevatten. (nl) |
