ok this is how you get the best cola, you go to a bar, thats got it on Tap or something, and well since they have a box of the syrup that they add to water to get the drink. They usually don't add enough water and you get more syrup than you should, though it has more of everything (except water duh) and its even more unhealthier it has more taste and it makes either better.

I voted for Pepsi since they haven't been accused of violating Human Labor laws in Third World countries as much or frequently has Coke has.

Re: Pepsi vs. Coke
 
I prefer Coke becuase of its syrupyness but, Pepsi is better if there isn't enough water in it.

COKE ALL THE WAY. I hate Pepsi. Plus I live in Atlanta where it was made. Coke is so much better. They have a larger variety of products. Both of the companies copy each other with the different products
Dr. Pepper=Mr. Pibb
Sprite=Sierra Mist
Things like that. But coke is better.

Coke is # 1

Re: Pepsi vs. Coke
 
I think both of them are absolutely disgusting.

I prefer the following beverages:

*Juice: Mango, Pineapple, Strawberry, Passionfruit, Guava, Apple, Orange, Banana, Carrot, Cranberry, Grape, etc., any combo of the above...
*Mango Lassi (yogurt drink)
*Water

And most importantly...

MILK!

Caffeine is supposed to stunt your growth, and milk is supposed to make you grow. -_- Look what it's done for me. I <3 Milk.

Bias...

No really, Dr. Pepper is independent, check out all the details I-don't-really-want-to-repeate-here-because-I'm-working-on-a-letter here.

Re: Pepsi vs. Coke
 
I acutally like both. Depends what mood i am in. If i have a sweet tooth or want lime its def coke but any other time its pepsi

Timmyd 01-06-2005 20:47

Re: Pepsi vs. Coke
 
OK this is on subject i can relate to coke has way to much sugar and Pepsi is not only better tasting but last i checked it i cheaper to buy

wilshire 01-06-2005 21:48

Re: Pepsi vs. Coke
 
yeah if I wasn't a diehard Tab fan I wouldn't acknowledge the exisitence of the company Coca- Cola. Therefore I <3 Tab and pepsi.

Amanda Morrison 01-06-2005 21:56

Re: Pepsi vs. Coke
 
Pepsi, all the way. I was SO happy that the Hard Rock in Atlanta serves Pepsi. By far, the best restaurant there. :)

I don't know about sweetness... maybe it's just me, but I always thought that Pepsi was sweeter. Coke is just a little too crisp for me.

Lil' Lavery 01-06-2005 22:14

Re: Pepsi vs. Coke
 
Coke! Pepsi is too sweet. Coke is the classic, crisp, refreshing taste that everyone can enjoy. Plus all the other coke products crush their pepsi equivalents (with the exception of the mountain dew line). Plus coke makes a PINEAPPLE SODA! Gotta love Pineapple Fanta
Gatorade>Powerade
Minute Made/Fanta (Orange)>Slice (Orange)
Sprite>Sierra Mist/Slice (Lemon Lime)-but all of those drinks taste horrible anyway
ect. ect. ect.

Re: Pepsi vs. Coke
 
My family hath turneth me against the coca-cola.. :eek: I used to be the only person in my family who drank coke... not any more..
I have turned on it over the years.

Even though I still collect Coca-Cola items and what not, I have to :shudder: admit that Pepsi is better.

The reason: It stays carbonated longer. Coke goes flat too fast.




<side topic> Yes, Dr. Pepper rox my world more than Coke or Pepsi does as well. :) </side topic>

Maybe you should not use this poll in your research since it suffers from voluntary response bias... it's not statistically valid. :eek:

Whatever conclusion he comes to is going to be invalid anyways. There is no way to prove which is better.

Well, if you base it on certain factors, as in "Which cola soft drink is sweeter?" or "Which cola soft drink stays carbonated longer?", then you can say that it is "better" in that specific factor...

Re: Pepsi vs. Coke
 
I'm a Coke addict. Wait, that didn't sound right. Coca Cola that is. But seriously, if I don't have it I go crazy. Not literally crazy, but you know how it is, I just HAVE to have my Coca Cola. I like it so much I was thinking of getting a fountain for my house.

Pepsi is okay too, but there is just something about Coke, (I have no idea what, but something) that makes me like it better.

Diet Coke though I cannot stand! That stuff is nasty. Regular all the way! Coke C2 is nasty too. They claim there is no taste difference but I sure find one.

What's funny though is I like Coke over Pepsi, but I like Aquafina (pepsi product) over Dasani (coke product). And you all are wondering how on earth I can tell the difference right?

santosh 02-06-2005 03:01

Re: Pepsi vs. Coke
 
I have heard many peopl say that, but I just can't see why. Then agian I can't see teh difference between tap water and bottle water. But still, Coke is better.

Coke

Waaaay back in high school, our technical director in the theatre department paid us for our "work" by keeping a refrigerator stocked with Coca-Cola. Once, we had a contest to see who could chug a 12-oz. can the quickest. My buddy Joel did it in 5 seconds. I did it in 7. We both learned that chugging Coke is painful.

... and this tidbit of Andy Baker's somewhat meaningless past is brought to you by...

If I had to drink non diet drinks I prefer Pepsi. If I were to drink my preferred drink it would be Diet Coke. I know it sounds weird but Coke is too much like syrup and Diet Pepsi is like bad medicine.

Nobody beats Diet Coke with Lime (except Red Bull).

Mike Martus 02-06-2005 12:04

Re: Pepsi vs. Coke
 
There is no question! Pepsi is better, much better.

End of research.

Oddly enough Pepsi is bottled in my hometown of Rolling Meadows and I still like Coke better.

Re: Pepsi vs. Coke
 
I think the question is not Coke or Pepsi but Coke in what type of container.

Coke tastes different depending on what container it is in. So would you pick:

Plastic Bottle
Aluminum Can
Glass Bottle
or Fountain (if fountain, name from what restaurant)

?

I would pick glass bottle probably. Although they are all very good.

Clark Gilbert 02-06-2005 13:25

Re: Pepsi vs. Coke
 
I'm going to have to go with Coke. When you go to a university that has a strick "contract" with Coke then it tends to be the only thing you can find anywhere. It's nice to have a Pepsi every once and awhile, but when I want a nice cold refreshing drink....I grab a Coke.

YEah, I don't notice the diffrent in most of those probably because I have never had coke in a glass bottle. But I do find the difference in fountatin. We work the Georgia Dome Events and run the pap John stands and the fountains are much less carbonated and much sweeter at the dome games.

Coke is cool. Coke in a glass bottle is even cooler cause I think its harder to find.

Pepsi. You can go to Canada and it'll taste the same in a can as it does in the States. Coke in Canada is sweeter and tastes more like Pepsi in a can and in the states it tastes insanely dull.

Besides, Pepsi makes Mountain Dew aka happiness in a bottle. :D

richardp 02-06-2005 23:16

Re: Pepsi vs. Coke
 
Coke all the way.

Glass Bottle, Then can, then plastic bottle, then fountain (I don't really like the fountain drink normally I go w/ Sprite)

David Guzman 03-06-2005 00:08

Re: Pepsi vs. Coke
 
If im buying "black soda" I will rather have pepsi over coke but on the other hand I like sprite, so i dunno i guess both.

Ashley Christine 03-06-2005 13:11

Re: Pepsi vs. Coke
 
Well, of the pepsi/coke, I usually drink coke, it is what I have grown up with. I am not the biggest fan of soda, carbonation makes me a little P-Oed sometimes. And if I am gunna drink soda I usually prefer along the lines of Sprite, 7up [all 7ups], Mt. Dew, Orange... etc. Its just how I have always been. But I like the caffiene/sugar part...

But I would have to say coke over those two.

Both are used to clean car engines...imagine what it does to your stomach

More Juice...Less Soda! :)

Re: Pepsi vs. Coke
 
hmmm both make me sick generally ill stick with water or juice or milk....

pepsi is suppose to be sweeter i thought...whatever makes you happy i guess

Carolyn Duncan 04-06-2005 16:41

Re: Pepsi vs. Coke
 
I've got to go with Pepsi on this one. Pespi in a can tends to be more syrup and less carbonation. As far as Coke at a bar, the syrup does tend to make the drink sweeter due to the calibration in the gun and the fact most people order mixed drinks because they don't want to be able to taste the alcohol. Just a little FYI those guns that the soda comes out of are horrendously dirty. Most places don't calibrate the guns well and cleaning happens maybe once a week because you have to take the guns apart to clean them properly and that takes quite some time. I do this at work every week because no one else will do it. Oh and I don't drink Coke because I have a problem putting something in my body that cleans corrosion off battery terminals. YIKIES!
