Pepsi vs. Coca-Cola


I don't drink soda that much, so I don't have a strong opinion at all about this competition. But I am fascinated by the history of this soda war, and I have several family and acquaintances that are semi-addicted to these caffeinated drinks

So pepsi or coke, and why?

reply

Even though they're unhealthy, I drink both on occasion. Given the choice, I prefer Pepsi because, to me, it's a bit sweeter than Coke.

reply

Coca-Cola is for me. Pepsi is too...idk how to describe it, too soft? Coke is harsh, but the flavour hits better. I also like all the Coke iterations better than the Pepsi ones (Diet Coke, Vanilla Coke, Cherry Coke, etc.), in that I don't like the Pepsi ones at all. Throw in ice and a lime wedge and it's a good time.

reply

I think the softness you describe comes from extra carbonation. Others have mentioned that they think coke is more fizzy

Very true, Coke is way harsher and more carbonated. But the flavour imo is also better, so if I'm comparing flat Coke to Pepsi at its fizziest, I'd still choose Coke.
