    Winner!

    When I lived in Atlanta, I developed a pretty intense Diet Coke habit. Now that I'm back in Texas, it's all about the Diet Dr. Pepper.

    ETA: Diet Mountain Dew when I really need a caffeine boost or we're road tripping.

    The only time I drink pop is a fresca the morning of a hangover - something about the grapefruity taste helps.

    Other than that I second the idea of an Old Rasputin float.

    I drink Diet. Mt Dew most of the time, or Fresca if I'm trying to limit caffeine. I used to love the regular but it seems REALLY sweet now. I'm not a huge fan of colas in general but will do Diet Coke if I have to. I prefer it from a fountain though. Diet Dr. Pepper is also best from a fountain. If I'm going to splurge on calories for sugared soda I go with Root Beer (Mug), Orange, or Grape (Welch's).

    1. Coke
    2. Coke
    3. Coke

    What else is there?

    I'm trying to stay away from regular soda as much as I can, and only do a diet soda every once in a while if the cravings are bad.

    Did I mention the only one and true soda/pop? Coke

    Yes, Coke it is.

    I don't drink alot of pop but when I do it's Fresca or Pepsi Max.
    If I'm feeling a little adventurous, I'll have an A&W Rootbeer...sometimes I'll even throw in a scoop of ice cream too :)

    My favorites (in order)
    Diet Mt. Dew [DMD]
    Diet Dr. Pepper
    Coke Zero

    The frequency in which I drink them (in order)
    Coke Zero
    Diet Dr. Pepper
    Diet Mt. Dew [DMD]


    Typically these days I only drink diet soda when it has rum in it, so that makes me lean towards the cola. Additionally... I'm such a DMD freak that I just can't have it around.

    Pre-losing weight, I was a Pepsi/Mountain Dew girl, except for Cherry Coke. Now? Mainly Diet Dr. Pepper. Sometimes Coke Zero, and of course both of those in Cherry. Last night I opened a 12-pack of Diet Code Red and I don't think I'm missing out on that if I don't buy it again.

    If I'm dining out at a place that serves Coke and they don't have Coke Zero, I go with water, as Diet Coke is absolutely gross.

    Prefer Coke soda products.

    Like Coke Zero over diet. Hate regular Coke.

    Used to like Dr. Pepper until a co-worker compared it to cherry cough syrup, and now that's all I taste when I drink it (thanks, Jason).

    But really, IBC root beer wins over all.

    yup - been at least a year since I had one. Either I'm slowing down as I get older or I've built up a tolerance.........

    lies- it's just fresca!!! there is no "non-diet" version.

    but it is a bonus that it's 0 calories.

    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

    oh wow....................I want them....

    I like diet pepsi, but every once in awhile I like an orange soda. also I like those Italian sodas that you flavor with the syrups (and all the weird little syrup flavors like orgeat).

    No pop because it's evil, and pop drinkers are disgusting, remember? KIDDING!!!

    I drink a whole lot of Club Soda and every once in a while I get a craving for a cold Coke Classic.

    I have a question now....

    Soda (or pop for you midwesterners I guess)

    Regular
    Diet
    Or Zero/MAX

    Also.... do you prefer Coke products- or Pepsi products- and yes it matters.

    SODA = POP = COKE (IN TEXAS, IT'S ALL COKE! "WHAT KIND OF COKE DO YOU WANT?" DR PEPPER! LOL)

    If I am going to have one, I will choose "real" not diet or zero. I wil choose Dr Pepper almost every time, except sometimes, I just really crave Pepsi. oh yes, and with pizza, root beer every time.

    **ETA - fountain drink every time. NO cans or bottles!**

    Coke Zero. Preferably from the glass bottles you sometimes get at restaurants, but canned is the second option, then fountain. A plastic bottle is only in dire cases.

    I don't drink a lot of pop, but I do like a Coke Zero a couple times a week. I don't really like regular Coke or Diet Coke, but Coke Zero...yesssssss.

    I drink a TON of grapefruit Perrier too, but that doesn't have sugar or sweeteners so I don't know if it counts as pop.

    Oh, and I have a cream soda about once a year too. It's enough.

    Since I moved from the midwest to Texas, I'm a Pepsi drinker living in a Coke world!
    Diet Pepsi for me - beverage of the gods..
    Unless I'm mixing it with alcohol, and then it's diet 7-Up (don't like Sprite as much as a mixer). Currently toting SMIRNOFF SORBET® Light Raspberry Pomegranate in a flask & mixing with the diet 7-Up for 78 calories per 1.5 fl. oz. Local hang out only serves beer, so it's a set-up for me!
