A little white can has lots of people seeing red .

Now, Coca-Cola is reacting to a full blown controversy.

It all started a few weeks ago, when Coke came out with its new -- white -- holiday can.

People said it was confusing, because it wasn't the traditional red can.

Some people would not buy them, because they thought they were diet.

Diet drinkers mistakenly bought regular Coke, because the white can was too similar to Diet Coke's silver can.

The uproar has Coca-Cola scrambling to get the cans off the shelf, and the more traditional red cans back.

"ABC15 Now!" wants to know where you stand on this can controversy.

Are the white cans just plain wrong?

Do you like them?

Were you surprised to hear people were so mad about the temporary holiday cans in the first place?
