I am definitely a coke fan. I think it is tangier. Pepsi actually makes my stomach feel strange, but coke is my favorite vice.

Pepsi is sweeter…I drink so much I should have stock in it.

chou199015's avatar

Yeah, I really like coke too…I like feeling the burn in my throat, as opposed to Pepsi which is indeed sweeter and a little bland on the throat burn…

They are both too sweet for me, I prefer still drinks.

chou199015's avatar

Oh I’ve had ICE TEA, I love Ice Tea, have you had it?

Sophief's avatar

@chou199015 No I’ve never had, does it taste like cold tea?

chou199015's avatar

oh, well yeah…I guess I just call it Ice Tea, but it’s the same thing as lipton or Nestea

One important difference is how people process sensory input in their brains. Interestingly, when comparing Coke and Pepsi not all has to do what originates in the taste buds of our tongues.

Pepsi is what you buy when they’re out of Coke.

When Coca-cola was really coca-cola and not the junk they make now, I prefered that. Although I would drink either one. The only cola that has made me happy recently is Pepsi Throwback. It came out this summer and there are six 12-packs of it in my garage. I drink about one can every other week. Hoping it doesn’t spoil!

I used to enjoy Pepsi as a child/teen, but now it tastes sickeningly sweet. Now I prefer Coke.

A tall glass of water for me thank you.

I think the difference is that Coke has more advertising. In terms of taste I hardly notice the difference. I drink both but prefer Coke for some reason…maybe all that advertising really has had an effect on me.

I prefer Coke. It is more heavily carbonated and helps clear my throat and its “bite” perks me up as much as caffeine. Pepsi is just to sweet for my tastes.

jerv's avatar

Coke has more of an orange taste to it and isn’t as sweet as Pepsi which has more of a sugared-lemon taste.

Of the two, I prefer Pepsi by far.

I’m a Diet Pepsi fan. I buy Diet Coke if it’s on sale.

Wild Cherry Pepsi.

Oh, yes! Pepsi in 16 ounce glass bottles!!

By the way, in Germany we’ve got Aldi Coke. Costs only half and it seems Aldi was able to reverse engineer Coke highly protected recipe in Atlanta. Can’t tell them apart.

chou199015's avatar

wow, that’s interesting

I’m a Pepsi kinda gal. Coke has a strange after taste and leaves a gross feel in my mouth. YUCK!
