Who are these people who think there's no difference between Coke and Pepsi? Coke has a sharpness where Pepsi just has sweetness and they are completely different tastes. Urgh i have a bottle of pepsi to get through (I am not sitting here downing it, I do mean within the next week or so)

Pepsi Max is good though. And I say that as a Coke lover.

RedHotPokers · 09/04/2012 17:23

I would rank:

  1. Coke (delish, but makes your teeth feel 'woolly')
  2. Pepsi Max
  3. Pepsi
  4. Coke Zero
  5. Diet Coke (boak)
  6. Diet Pepsi (double boak)

Diet Coke triumphs over all other variations of Coke or Pepsi.

Pepsi only just qualifies as a drink.

I can tell the difference between Coke and Pepsi but I'll drink either one. I'd rank the different varieties in pretty much the same order as RedHotPokers - except my absolute favourite is proper Cherry Coke. I fricking loathe Diet Coke, it's revolting.

For me the top is
1 - Pepsi max
2 - diet coke
3 - coke
4 - Pepsi
5 - diet Pepsi
6 - coke zero

coke is better than pepsi, but diet pepsi/pepsi max, is better than diet coke

Yep I can tell, I hate Pepsi now after succumbing to a supermarket offer and ended up suck to the back teeth of it.

I last drank Coke on a beach the day after Princess Diana died.

I don't know whether it's what she would have wanted but I had a mysterious craving, so who knows?

It was full sugar, cold, no ice or lemon (who are these weirdos who want lemon in their soft drinks?) out of a glass bottle and lovely.

Don't expect another craving to strike any time soon.

? Hmm ?

I did the pepsi challenge years ago, could tell the difference straight away.

I cannot stand 'fat' coke/pepsi - diet all the way for me. My favourite is diet cherry coke. Grin

ApocalypseCheeseToastie · 11/04/2012 07:42

I recently discovered caffeine free diet coke, it's bloody good.

babyheave1662 · 11/04/2012 07:45

I love Pepsi Max, much prefer it to diet coke.

catgirl1976 · 11/04/2012 07:45

Oh no - its horrid - the gold can one? Yuk

But is all I can have as HV has told me to cut out caffine totally whilst bf, and given DS is like a little duracel bunny I have taken her advice in case it helps

(it hasn't but too scared to throw caffine back into the mix)

babyheave1662 · 11/04/2012 07:47

Cherry Pepsi max is also delish, especially with a couple of shots of vodka Grin

dyspeptic · 11/04/2012 08:31

Coke and teeth though, why does it make them feel so weird when all fat cokes are sugary? I could do it as a teeth test.

angelpuss · 11/04/2012 09:27

Has to be Coke...the proper stuff, not the diet shite version.

Did the pepsi challenge years ago, and chose Coke Grin
