Pepsi.

Coca-cola has WAY too much sugar in it and coats my teeth. Pepsi has more of a bite and in my opinion tastes better.

In general I like all Pepsi products better. Pepsi, Mtn. Dew, etc etc etc

This is the mother of all polls... :hmpf:

I drink both. Sometimes Coke, sometimes Pepsi.

I used to be exclusively Pepsi, but for some unknown reason, the Coke seems to keep its fizz longer and the machine is closer to my office.

Do we need a poll about choice of cans, bottles or fountain?

:D

Has anyone ever sat back and noticed when you take "the Pepsi Challenge" they always give the people a hot, old flat coke, and a nice fresh cold Pepsi? I stood back and watched the guys doing this one time at the fair. I got in line to take the challenge, and (even though it was terribly flat and horrible) told the guys behind the counter I preferred sample B (the hot flat coca cola)- The guy then proceeds to tell me that I chose pepsi-

(saving witty come backs for annother day I just walked off)

My friend who was there was like, you know the one that you liked was really coca cola right? :D

Rigged. I don't like pepsi anyway, but do they really think cheating will help them?

I prefer Coca-Cola. I actually think Pepsi tastes to sweet. Hmm

Oh well, I guess it's a matter of taste, besides.. Things go better with Coke :)

I DO like Coca Cola better than Pepsi and I'm not just saying that because I'm from Atlanta. :D

Coca Cola is a better mixer..... rum & coke, jack & coke :p . I'm not really an acoholic.... I just play one on weekends :dazed: . Actually, I'll buy which ever is on sale at the grocery store, even though I do prefer Coke. :D

Hey, Charlie..... maybe next week's poll question could be,"what brand of toilet paper is your favorite?"....... j/k :D

Its all about Pepsi. Although, I'll take Coke if someone gives it to me, or thats all there is. Actually, I'm kinda pissed off that Coke doesn't push TAB anymore, TAB rocks!

I have always been a fan of RC Cola, I think it is less sweet and has more true cola flavor. I do not drink either Coke or Pepsi.

I've long since given up sugar, but I used to prefer coke. I thought it was less sweet also. I used to really like Nehi cream soda. Does anybody remember that? That goes way back.

Yea, coke has a lot of sugar, but pepsi is just too sweet for me.

pepsi is as sweet as diet coke, which is Yuck with a capital Y.

I find that Coke has the better products, except for Mt. Dew, which blows Mello Yello out of the water.

I mean who drinks 7-Up? nobody, that's who.

you can't touch Dr. Pepper, and even though they are "independent" now, they were Coke, and they always will be in my mind. There's a reason they are next to coke, not pepsi, in the cola aisle of the grocery store.

Anyways, coke, sprite, dr. pepper, mt. dew. those are what i drink, cola-wise.

and i agree, coke products mix MUCH better. *smile*

You need an option for "neither". I hate coke and pepsi. I usually drink unsweetened iced tea. However, if I had to choose a cabonated drink, I'd go with Mr. Pibb, Ginger Ale or Root Beer.

Coke holds it's fizz longer than pepsi... pepsi is a bit too sweet.

However... I really do like Pepsi Blue... a lot,

But... Vanilla Diet Coke rules!

pepsi is the way to go...i think the coke taste like flat pepsi.....hmmmmm pepsi for dinner ..super and after work rum & pepsi (a.k.a. rum & coke).....but i drink way to much of this havenly pepsi..lol

I like pepsi, although vanila coke is ok as long as its not in a 1 liter bottle every time I have had some in a small bottle it tastes bad. At work they switched from pepsi to coke and everyone got really mad (all simon malls switched) Coke leaves an after taste that I dont really care for. But I still drink it all the time its not bad.

Diet Coke if there ain't any Diet Dew in the fridge. If nothing else, a water.

I totally agree. Most coca cola products are better in mixed drinks.
I will also buy whatever is on sale, but I prefer Coke. I can't stand paying more than 2.50 per 12 pack (think military base shopper here), and when the stores off base have it on sale, I'll buy Pepsi products.
However, I can't drink MT. Dew. It literally has too much sugar/caffiene in it. Sends my already sensitive sugar levels soaring... :dizzy:
If we did a poll on what way we like our sodas, I prefer fountain because then I could drink any of them (again, NOT the Mt. Dew though). Diet, regular, Pepsi, Coke.. Doesn't matter. Can load up on the ice too. I love my soda cold!

Diet Coke preferably.

Coca Cola, definitely! I'm addicted to it!

Pepsi is a little too sweet, I think.

I personally will drink any soda, but prefer pepsi to coke for its sweeter taste. Diet Pepsi Lemon is da bomb

i have always though that pepsi tasted flat compaired to coke!

there's nothing like the smell of opening a fresh coke either. . .

and yes - diet vanilla is my favorite too

Now what if the poll was between Pepsi and Coke II?

Xanatos

I think that canned crap that they try and market as vanilla coke is discusting.

I'll take a bottle of vanilla syrup and Pepsi, or Dr. Pepper any day *drools*

Vanilla Dr. Pepper is awesome.

Once nice thing about working where I do. I get as much free fountain drinks as I want :)

I'd have to go with coca cola on this one, personally, i find pepsi on the bland side, but hey, maybe my taste buds are a little on the way side

Pepsi is just nasty in my books! The worst thing Coke did was try and mess with the original formula back in 1985(?). The "New Coke"... What were they thinking?!?!:dazed:

I usually drink Diet Coke or Caffeine-Free Diet Coke but I find Coke Classic makes the best mixer. I've also taken a shining to Diet Vanilla Coke!

Better living through chemistry! :D

When I can't get Coke, I'll take Pepsi with lemon

MyPointofVUE

04-08-2003, 02:20 PM

Hmmm how 'bout Mountain Dew? That would be my first choice, but Coke is definitely the next favorite. I agree it seems less sweet than Pepsi to me. Everyone remember the New Coke fiasco?

Actually a good question is how do you order?
I'll have a coke? (which I use in the generic...if they have Pepsi that's ok)
Soda?
Pop?
etc

Coke. Pepsi has too much sugar. I liked Pepsi more when I was a kid.

Coke is it !. I even got my kitchen fully decorated in full coke gear... plates, glasses, water fountain, cookie jar, floor rug, dish towels and even the new Athearn H.O Scale train soon to be running across my long kitchen counter. Nothing better than taking a drink of Vanilla Coke when you wake up in the middle of the night... AAAAHHHHH !!!:grnjump:

I've been drinking Coke since I was a kid and am completely addicted to the Classic formula. Trying to make it taste more like Pepsi (back in the mid-1980's) was the worst business decision Coca-Cola made.

I drink bottled water much more than pop. The odd time we do buy pop for company, it's always coke and never Pepsi. I have not had Pepsi for so long that I cannot remember what it tastes like. In the past I always thought Pepsi tasted flat compared to coke. I'll have to buy a Pepsi and try it.

For Coke drinkers, do you think the taste is different in Can vs Bottle?

For some reasons I found the bottle Coke is too 'sweet'.......

In 1996 at a fair in a small town in Illinois I bought a Bill Clinton "Bubba Cola" promoting his 1996 campaign. I thought it was pretty funny and took it home and gave it do my dad who was a big democrat. I was one of the few who voted for Ross Perot in 1996.

A shot of vanilla vodka and coke makes one tasty and relaxing beverage. Females tend to like my version of Vanilla coke as well.

I too feel that canned drinks are better than plastic bottled drinks. However, I miss the days when i was a pre-teen and I could buy a 16oz or 6.5oz bottled of cola. Those were so tasty and refreshing.

Pepsi is my choice. I am drinking one right now as matter of fact!! I will drink a coke, but very rarely can finish it. I can down a Pepsi in no time flat. AHHHH CAFFIENE!!!!!! LOL
