Coke vs. Pepsi -- let's get it on!

Diet Coke for me. That, skim milk and H2O are my lifeblood, I'm afraid.

 

I can taste a difference, but I still agree with you. More often than not, I go with whichever is cheaper.

Of course, if one or the other had a variety sweetened with cane sugar that was readily accessible, I'd join their cause in an instant.

 

No love for Mr. Pibb?

I give Pepsi the slight edge, but I have no real problems with Coke. I had a roommate in college who loved his rum and Cokes. One light night when no Coke-Cola was available, he whipped up some rum and Pepsis. Good god was that awful. Some things just aren't meant to go together.

 

I grew up in a divided household. Mom and I drank Coke. My father and brother drank Pepsi or Cherokee Red (regional drink I've never seen anywhere but Pittsburgh).

Then the wife got into the marketing business and started getting us coupons for free Pepsi. I always hated Diet Coke, but I found Pepsi One to be decent. Now I am a full-on convert, though I am fine with either one these days.

Should I be ashamed of my traitorous ways?

 

Take water out of the equation because nothing beats a tall glass of cold water.

But the next best thing is a cold, cold fresh Coca Cola. Oh, the burn going down!

Pepsi sucks.

 

If you can get Jones Soda, do so. The bottles are "Jones Pure Cane Soda." I've only had the cream soda, but it tastes like liquid cotton candy. Mmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Edit: Didn't catch the Diet Dr Pepper one though!

 

I've never heard of Dr. Pepper. ...

 

There is nothing like drinking pop/soda out of a glass bottle, instead of these plastic containers.

On that note, Walgreens has started selling pop in a glass bottle. I believe it's made by Deerfield Farms and there's 3-4 different flavors, including a root beer and cream soda.

 

Jones cherry soda was crack to me. Then they pulled distribution of that flavor in my area.

Bastards.

 

Hmmm, I wonder if anyone else from Canuckistan remembers Pop Shoppe Pop ... Their Lime Ricky, Cream Soda and Orange rocked all the sodie pops in the world.

And after a 20-year hiatus, it's back. I gotta get me some.

 

ARRRRRRRGH! Good catch, mike311gd.

THERE IS NO PERIOD IN DR PEPPER.
