Pepsi = Shaq, the taste of a juvenile generation.

Ergo it sucks.  

Funny how Pepsi can't advertise its flagship product without a reference point.  That reference point being Coca-cola.  

Figured out where I stand yet? :-*

Coca-Cola

I'm not a huge fan of either (and I've cut back on my overall soda intake since it's soooooo bad for you), but Pepsi is too sweet for me.

I actually prefer Vanilla Coke, because the vanilla takes some of the paint-peeling edge off the Coke.

I won't touch Diet soda with a ten-foot lightsaber. That stuff is icky. NutraSweet aftertaste ... yumm. ::) When I do drink soda I go for the real thing.

Definitely Coca-Cola all the way. Back in the day, I would drink several cans a day. But as I got older, it dwindled to maybe one a day, but now after finding out how bad carbonated beverages are for a condition I have, I've cut back to maybe 1 Coke every few weeks. Still it's soothing taste, is always a refereshing counter to whatever else I've been having at the time. As opposed to that vile devil's drink Pepsi, which is nothing but sugar in water with a bit of food coloring. Blah, how anyone can drink that tripe, I do not know.

BTW Cherry Coke rocks the house like nothing that's rocked the house before!

Gotta go with Coca Cola.  Cherry Coke, Vanilla Coke, Sprite and Minute Maid orange are some of my favorites.  Pepsi products just don't taste as good to me.  I actually worked as a merchandiser for Coke a few years ago.  10-12 hour days starting at 10 PM made things brutal, though. 
The only rootbeer I will drink is A&W.  Theirs is the best IMO.

I prefer Pepsi, although I have nothing against Coke.  I'll drink it if there is nothing else, but Pepsi is my cola of choice.

What tastes like sulfuric acid is this new Coke Zero.  Papa John's gave me one free as part of a promotion last week with my pizza and I took three drinks (in order to make an informed decision, of course) and it was simply foul.  I haven't tasted a cola product that bad since Pepsi One.

Stickin' to that diet eh Kev?  Good on ya. 

I didn't mind Coke Zero at all.  It reminds me much more of real Coke than the diet products do.  I'm still a Coke guy at heart, but mostly drink Diet Dr. Pepper these days.  It's a Pepsi product up here, so they're getting my $$ these days.

Yep, sticking to it. There have only been two situations where I had to break diet in order to eat, but even then it was only meat and veg, and one soda. The rest was water, as much as my gut could hold. But I do think Coke Zero tastes as close to regular coke as they can. I could just do without the carmel. :-\

Both!

As long as they are cold.  But I drink more water & Cytomax(sports drink) than soda,  I work outside in the sun.

Many memories of warm Coke & beer while I was in China for 3 weeks. :P
