    First of all, everything is called coke, okay? No soda, or pop or whatever. Just coke.

    Next, coke > pepsi, without question.

    I drink Coke - recently switched from Dr. Pepper as it became too sweet for me.

    My list:

    1. Coke
    2. Sprite
    3. Dr. Pepper

    Stop spreading misinformation! ;)

    Pepsi tastes like burps!

    rubbish! Coke tastes like kc light syrup!!!!

    Sunkist sparkling lemonade is the only pop I buy. Mixes with everything, ten calories per can.

    Diet Pepsi and Coke Zero......

    I gave up soda for two years and got sucked back in this past summer. >:)

    The caffeine does help and carbonation helps keep me full and eat less.

    Diet coke with lime for the classic sodas.

    Though in sober truth, I tend to drink flavored seltzer. No sweetener, just bubbles and a bit of flavor.

    Fistbump.

    also interesting the difference between fountain and canned drinkers.

    I prefer CANNED.

    Bottled (plastic) is okay- but I much prefer canned.

    Fountain is just to inconsistent- but it does give good carb.

    LOL- to the monopoly money ecard- my BF and I have a joke about that

    Can I have a pepsi?

    Is Coke okay?

    NO- NO IT IS NOT!!!!

    we have this conversation after he politely says "yes" to the coke. LMAO. I'll actually opt for another beverage if they don't have pepsi because I dislike coke.
  • IMO:
    Good Fountain > Can > Bottle >>>>>>>>> Bad Fountain

    I tend to drink diet pop (Midwest, represent!) just because I’m not big on super sweet stuff. So with that said…here’s my go to list.

    1. Diet Sierra Mist
    2. Diet Dr. Pepper
    3. Diet Barq’s Root Beer
    4. Coke Zero
    5. Diet Vernors

    If I’m mixing in rum, I go with Coke or Diet Coke with lime.

    If I’m hung-over, it’s Coke to cool the pipes.

    Whatever the choice, I prefer cans versus plastic.

    Pepsi Max

    Ginger Ale

    Diet Ginger Ale

    I'm unaware of any other types of soda that don't taste like butt.

    My dad's a Coke man. If a waitress asks "Is Pepsi ok?", he always responds "Sierra Mist" with a depressed look on his face.

    I'm not much of a fan of coke/pepsi. When I do grab a soda, it tends to be these. Less sweet.

    Also - to the soda vs pop line of demarcation - I grew up in KC and it was called pop but now that I live in STL it is called soda - so maybe somewhere around Columbia, MO is the carbonated Mason-Dixon?

    Little know fact: there is another soda/pop geographical line up north. Wisconsin = soda. UP (Upper Michigan) = pop. And a small DMZ between the two where people call it "soda pop". True story.

    Hmm. This has got to be one of the only ways in which the UP is culturally closer to MI than WI. Interesting.

    1. Cherry Zero
    2. Coke Zero
    3. Pepsi Max
    4. Diet Dr Pepper
    5. Diet Coke (with Lime if possible)
    6. Diet Mt Dew
    7. Jones Soda Diet Black Cherry
    8. Diet Canada Dry

    Diet Pepsi is gross. And any soda/pop that normally has caffeine and has been decaffeinated is a fail. Caffeine Free Diet Coke? What's the point? Yuck.

    Over here Soda is fizzy water and mixed with Lime Cordial is a great "soft drink"...I guess soft drink is the most popular term in the UK for fizzy stuff!

    My favourite is Pepsi Max, then Diet Pepsi, then Cherry Pepsi Max and if not available then Coke Zero. For me Pepsi tastes much sweeter.

    1. Italian bitter soda in the tiny bottles: Stappj or Crodino
    2. Chinotto (San Pellegrino, then Brio)
    3. Canada Dry Ginger Ale
    4. Coke
    5. Sprite

    My favorite soda is China Cola, such a treat! As for any other soda it just depends on my mood really, I go through phases :p But if someone asked me to describe the taste of poison I would say diet soda (aspartame more specifically). Blaaaaaah

    Pop is crap, alcohol is better. But water is good enough for me.
  • My preferences:
    1. Diet cherry 7-up
    2. Diet Mt Dew
    3. Diet Coke

    I prefer diet--it's what I grew up with--but will drink a Zero/Max if I don't like the diet selections.

    ETA: Pepsi or Coke is fine with me.

    Agreed to the preferring diet - I'm a Coke gal, & diet coke has 0 calories! ;-) yeay!!
