I had a professor who did consumer polling/testing. Sometimes he'd tell us stories. One was about New Coke. When they (blind) product tested it, people overwhelmingly preferred it to the original. When they told them it was a new recipe, they said it wasn't as good. They told Coke this and they shrugged.

ReplyDeleteFor the longest time I thought that line was "Rock and roller color wars," which to be honest still sounds way more interesting.
