No difference for sure. |
I remember that. Yes, that new version coke was not any different than Pepsi. Which was the point, since Pepsi was gaining points.
Then the uproar forced then to reintroduce the "Classic Coke" , which actually doubled their shelf space in supermarkets.
I always thought this reaction was expected and even planned.

Of course, it was planned. I laughed my butt off watching blindfolded guys sipping stuff from urine-test cups and mortgaging their houses to fight for re-instating the original Coke. What a great free publicity stunt. Coca Cola probably saved a bundle suspending all their commercial advertising for a few months. I was just waiting to see how they would bring the old Coke back, gracefully succumbing to the desperate cries of the distressed population. Then the Classic Coke appeared. How special was that!

None of the above. Pepsi Max ![Tongue](smileys/smiley17.gif) (aka Diet Pepsi?)

I always hated Pepsi, even if don't drink Coke often (twice a year tops), and when I do, I crush half a lemon into the content of a can. This takes away the overly sugar taste away (but only the taste, not the sugar) and then it tastes delicious.
However the lemon diet coke is disgusting (so is the normal diet coke)

Neither for me... I am a big water drinker, and avoid soft drinks like the plague - though in the past I have occasionally drunk Coke. In the summer, my favourite drink is iced tea in the Italian style - with sugar and lemon.

I prefer Pepsi, but I don't drink either of them anymore because I've
grown tired of the taste and because I've heard that both companies
have had a lot of unpleasant business in third world countries (such as
sponsoring dictators and executing employees who are in the
union).

I love Peruivian Coke but hate USA Coke, being that most citizens from the northern country like to drink Coke with a lot of ice, something we never do so I ask it without ice, what makes it too sweet for my taste, while here it had the exact balance..
In USA Pepsi, here Coke
