Pepsi.

Although I only drink this kinda thing once in a blue moon and I usually opt for Dr. Pepper or sarsaparilla instead.

BUT YES SHORT ANSWER PEPSI.

Coke, but only the cherry variety.

Usually, I just drink water, tea, and the occasional hot cocoa, so I'm not too passionate about defending it. :P

I actually had a little bit of a existential crisis the other day at work thinking about this.

So like, every other soda can really be any brand and nobody ever complains. Like, everyone has their favourites. I like A&W more than Mug. But when you go to a resteraunt and you ask for Sprite, if they say they just have Mist Twist nobody ever argues it.

But. Pepsi Vs Coke? Like if a place doesn't have coke, I will not get a cola. (unless it's homemade cola I like trying those.) There's no other soda that people are so argumentative on though??

Also, when you ask most people why they like one over the other, usually they'll respond "because ________ is sweeter."
But not just me, others too... everyone seems not agree on which is sweeter. I think Pepsi is sweeter which is why I don't like it. I have a friend who agrees that it's sweeter, but that's why she likes it. My bae says coke is sweeter and that's why he hates it. ????

What the heck how did this even happen.

Coke is cheaper (yay!) but burns my throat more more than Pepsi does. Pepsi has an almost flat taste to it comparison. But these days I only drink water, and boy does it make a significant difference!

*raises hand to speak*
*doesn't drink soda*

Uh. Nevermind

I prefer Coke, to be completely honest. But I don't really drink darker sodas. Sprite for me, please!

Coke.

Pepsi is too syrupy sweet, too cloying. Only the true taste of original Coca-Cola has that crisp bite with that sweet finish that I desire.

I knew it!

You own a time machine!

They both taste the same to me. Just brown, fizzy, and generically sweet. Am I missing something? (Tastebuds?)
