pepsi or coke?

Recommended Posts

Me: Coke

Wife: Diet Pepsi

The sad truth is I drink Coke a few times a week and I easily passed a taste test while blindfolded between the two. Which leads into another question.

Has anyone else noticed there is a different taste for Coke at Burger King, McDonalds, Wendy's, In-N-Out, Carl's Jr and others. That makes no sense, since they are theoretically using the same box of syrup, but they obviously dial the mix differently. For instance, I also put Dr. Pepper in Coke at BK, while I find the Coke at McD's needs to become watered by ice before I like its taste.

Again, the sad truth is it's one of my vices..... :angry:

Never really thought about it but i guess your right. They do mix diffrently and taste a little diffrent. Anyways of the little pop I drink I think Id barely put coke over pepsi.

I'm all about the Coke. I only drink at my buddies cause I dont bother buying it but thats all I drink there. I hate the taste of Pepsi if it isn't ICE cold.

I only drink soda at restaurants and I usually go with Dr. Pep or that stinking rut beer. If I have to go with cola, I prefer Pepsi.

Salming: Great observation on the various flavors of the same soda at different restaurants. Something I've mentioned to others and have been called nuts for.

I can honestly not tell the difference between the two, I've been thinking of doing a "blind test" sometime. So both are fine with me.

McD's uses a different mix. I worked at one in HS and I recall the owner telling me that they did their own research and found a mix the public liked more than the one Coke suggests. McD's also have a policy of cleaning the fountain heads every night that helps improve the taste as well.
