I’m not particularly fond of either, really. If someone offers one I’ll happily drink whichever it is. If they ask what I want it’s Dr Pepper (diet preferably).
To be honest if I took The Pepsi Challenge I think I could tell them apart, but I doubt I’d prefer one over the other. They taste too much alike to me. (Compared to the other choices, that is.)
At first I was a Coke person then I switched to Pepsi. Then I realised Pepsi tasted like butt to me and then I switched back to Coke. I’m indecisive like that.
That’s one of the problems I have with Pepsi. They both leave my mouth tasting pretty nasty, but Pepsi is so syrupy, that I can feel as well as taste it long after the can is empty.
What the hell are you smoking??? The reason I drink Pepsi® instead of Coke® is that Coke® is too sweet! In fact, I think it tastes like carbonated maple syrup. Yuck yuck yuck.
And while we’re on the subject, RC® is the most vile excuse for a soft drink anyone ever came up with. Bleah.
Coke, definitely, unless I’ve just done something physical that’s tired me out, in which case nothing hits the spot like the 80 pounds of sodium you can taste in every sip of Pepsi.
I can tell the difference when they are warm.
As for flatness, I prefer it!
I pour the drink, then wait a bit, then put some ice in. Wait another minute or so.
I don’t like fizz.
I’d never trust a colleague who brought me an open can of drink. See, I always assume that everyone else is as evil as me - and if I was bringing a colleague an open can, he could be sure there was a reason for this. Perhaps it contains a generous helping of a powerful laxative they keep in the lab downstairs.
Huh. When I was about 10, me and my girlfriend would take one of my dad’s empty beer cans, put soda in it, and sit outsdie, thinking we looked sooo cool.Ha!
