That is actually not what happened. They didn't change only the name, they changed the formula of the drink as well... and that is what people didn't like.
I, on the other hand, merely suggested a name change... not a formula change.

No, new NAME!!! and he notes - Reading all this reminds me of the Coca Cola debacle when they tried changing the name on the bottle to "Coke". The logic was everybody bought a Coca Cola called "Coke" so why not name it that and give the public what they ask for. Well they did it and found out that the public didn't recognize the name and sales plummeted. They were using a vernacular to purchase a well known product and "Coke" quickly changed back to Coca Cola.
