Homework Assignment 8/15
Class, I enjoyed your last assignment and I think you are finally getting into a rhythm with answering the "why" portions. I am feeling in a good mood because tonight is going to be awesome and I am stuffed on the best pizza in western Wisconsin...Heath bar cheesecake pizza? HEATH BAR CHEESECAKE PIZZA! Anyway you get an A+ but if you want to improve your grade you can seek extra credit. I am a fair teacher and will accept any work that you want to do to help improve your grade.
Here's this week's assignment:
Which do you prefer, Pepsi or Coca-Cola? Why do you like that specific kind?Make sure you clearly answer all the questions.Get to work.
I have to say that I prefer Pepsi Throwback. There's something about all the artificial sweeteners used softdrinks these days that is alarming. Also when I drink them it burns my throat but not when I drink the throwback. I think the artificial stuff is harsh on my tract.

Coke, because Pepsi is for heathens.
I also prefer Coke. Never cared for Pepsi for whatever reason.
Coke, because it tastes better than Pepsi. If you disagree it means that you are wrong!
Plus I'd be a bad Georgian if I said Pepsi.
Pepsi because they once made a commercial with Robbie Williams!
Diet Coke because it just tastes so good!
Pepsi. Coke tastes more bland but that is just me.
@bloggicus_maximus - heathens are more fun.
@StrawberrySunrises - But Coke is better for the soul.
@bloggicus_maximus - nah it kills it.
I love Coke best! It's always been Coke for me, because it is not as sweet as Pepsi. And I love the little zing I get when I drink it! I'd like to buy the world a Coke!
HUGS!
Coke for sure. Although it leaves a weird filmy feeling on my teeth. Cherry coke is my favorite though.
Lemonade. None you've mentioned worth my money. Maybe Cola...once a month or so.
coke
Both are good for cleaning corroded battery terminals. I nearly never drink soda/pop.
Interesting, but Coca-Cola brings in coca leaves to this day, with a pass from the gov't.
The by-product, being cocaine. 330 kilos per year, for... Um... Medicinal use! ROFL
in sugar/cornsyrup land and only between coke and pepsi- i prefer the less sweet yet more syrupy COKE Coke is IT I don't need the citric acid...but love the phosphoric acid bite..
Given my druthers, I'd tell you to shove the coke and Drink RC...but that's because while taste is great and all that- I'd rather drink the underdog and be royal for doing so.
If we're talking diet version: i like Diet Coke still more than diet pepsi- even if diet pepsi actually tastes better to me and diet coke is still like regular coke "IT" but overall the best diet cola is Diet Rite..... however there is this caveat, diet coke nutritionally is so much worse in combinations for me with other food. so despite diabetes and providing my triglycerides aren't soaring, I try to enjoy the coke...sugar coke.
Blue Sky cola is notable in containing natural cola extract but the jerks put some funky grape acid into it that toally ruins the chance to compare the taste against coke or pepsi's fake=o cola flavors.
Diet Coke, because it is love. Kumbaya.
This reminds me of the conversation I had with the Coke Guy the other day. He was wanting an ereader but we ended up talking about how Pepsi was communist (and he never gave me the reason why).
I'm a coke drinker. I was raised on it. The few times I've had to drink pepsi because it was the only option I didn't like it because it was too sweet.
Neither. I rarely drink anything with sugar in it, and even less likely to drink anything with an artificial sweetner. We were just talking about whether colas were corrosive. That's a rumour that's been around for a very long time.
Pepsi. I used to not be able to tell the difference, but then I went through a phase where I couldn't STAND the taste of Coke. Usually nowadays I can drink both, but sometimes Coke (especially if I haven't had it in a while) still tastes gross.
I like Pepsi, because it's a bit sweeter. If you're mixing drinks, Coke is better precisely because it's not as sweet. But if taken straight, Pepsi.
Pepsi. I used to drink both but a friend who worked for Pepsi said I was stealing food from his children's mouths when I drank Coke. I always think of that now when I am faced with the choice. Besides, it tastes better to me now.
i opt for geant/carrefour/(other supermarket brand) cola... because it is less than half the price, and still taste like cola...
Last night was going to be awesome?
I drink coke cuz pepsi is for pussies. Haha. Just kidding. But really, Pepsi is too sweet.
I like both but only in diet form diet coke with a slice of lemon is yum yum
Coca-Cola doesn't have the same kick as Pepsi does. Coca-cola is for chillin back, Pepsi is when you need hyped up in a hurry.
@maniacsicko - LOL
COKE
I love both.
Coca-Cola; Pepsi has a really nasty aftertaste to me. Thankfully, Pepsi isn't really in Europe so I'm all good to go
Pepsi has more taste. Coke has more carbonation. I actually miss the crystal pepsi. The clear ones. I don't believe in artificial coloring :T it's a marketing scheme.
Coca-cola because of the powerful brand management.
I like Pepsi better....mainly Diet Pepsi. I think Coke is too sweet and syrupy, and Pepsi has more bubbles.
Coke just tastes better.
Coke. the original.
pepsi is a wanna be. And it's just nasty.
however, I prefer the Doctor.
Coke... it tastes better... and I've always thought Pepsi feels like one of those kids who just try too hard to be popular...
COKE!! wait. oh, the drinks? Yeah, Pepsi.
Coke: Because who ever heard of doing lines with Pepsi?
@bloggicus_maximus - I do like Coke when it's mixed with bourbon
@Garistotle - I think Pepsi is a little lighter than Coke. I go through moods where I'll drink one over the other.
@Rob_of_the_Sky - they might revoke your citizenship if you went with Pepsi
@nattata - you and your Robbie Williams. There was a German bar in my town that served a drink that was a combination of Pepsi and beer. They said it was popular over there. I suppose I've said that before.
@mrsclark11 - I can't take Diet Coke unless it is the caffeine free variety. It burns my throat when I drink it.
@StrawberrySunrises - I really do like the Pepsi Throwback and wish I could get some old school Pepsi Free
@AdamsWomanFell - I have moods when I like Coke and when I like Pepsi but yes, Pepsi is definitely sweeter.
@my_little_niche - I do like the Cherry Coke Zero
@windoftheforest - I drank a lot of lemonade this evening
@dmcx - yeah I could probably go for one now
@saturnnights - hahaha...I would love a Coca-Cola throwback with real cocaine
@starmanjones - mmm RC Cola! I saw they have a cherry variety...NOT GOOD. I bought a Sun Drop cherry lemon the other day. I haven't tried it yet.
@ZombieMom_Speaks - there's something about Diet Coke that makes me ill
@NightlyDreams - yeah Pepsi is much sweeter than Coke. I haven't really looked at the nutritional facts to see if that means anything as far as carbs and calories are concerned
@Kathy - I remember a teacher in grade school always said why would you drink the stuff when it can eat through meat. He did an experiment with Coke and it ate away at a steak. It was sort of creepy. I have found a few recipes that call for you to tenderize steak by using Coke.
@randaness - Canned pop tastes so much better than in plastic bottles and a can of Coke after a long time without drinking any tastes so good but if you drink a lot of it then it loses the flavor or at least it does for me.
@Unstoppable_Inner_Strength - Yeah, Coke is much better for mixed drinks. I have never really heard of a drink that calls for Pepsi.
@girlForgetful - Hmmm I wonder how that is
@maniacsicko - Yeah I've been enjoying some Chill brand softdrinks especially the Dr. Chill.
@TheSecretLifeOfPandas - I think when I wrote this I was referring to having a conversation with a great friend. My grocery store has an "ethnic" foods aisle. They have Italian, Asian, and Mexican food items. Then on one shelf they have Coke, Pepsi, and some orange drink. The labels all identify the pop but add Mexican to it. So it's Mexican Coca Cola. I think it's different because it uses real sugar and it's in an old fashioned glass bottle.
@passions_trapped - Didn't they used to make a Diet Coke with lemon? I know they used to make Pepsi that way.
@Margo73 - I bought some Pepsi Max a while back. I thought it was great because it had 0 calories but it had like 2 or 3 times the caffeine. I was so hyper.
@RestlessButterfly - and why Coke?
@Hinase - Yeah, I really don't favor one although I like Pepsi's other products better.
@Cestovatelka - I like the Pepsi Throwback because there is no aftertaste or burning. oh and don't go to Germany if you don't want Pepsi. There was a German bar in my summer town and they had a drink on the menu that was supposedly a German favorite. It was a combination of beer and Pepsi. Not bad.
@BenelliMan - Oh man, Crystal Pepsi...that's a blast from the past. Maybe I'll have to bring back a post I wrote about some of my favorite pops from my childhood. I remember all the parodies that stuff spawned. SNL had a Crystal Gravy skit.
@Rainboxx - Yeah they definitely have better commercials although a few years back Pepsi used a song about gay sex.
@musicmom60 - I hate Diet Pepsi because my dad used to drink that stuff and then he'd burp and it would be the foulest smelling thing ever. Roadkill smelled better than his Diet Pepsi burps.
@BranmacFeabhail - fair enough
@mtears - I've been drinking a knock-off store brand called Dr. Chill.
@Zissu25 - hahaha...that's a good way to think of it.
@TheTheologiansCafe - I'm sure there are people out there who abuse pepsin.
Coke because the flavor is a bit milder and is great for making floats. I prefer chocolate ice cream in them. My mom thinks I'm crazy but god it's delicious.
yeah in mexico they make pop using real sugar. none of this fake chugar bullshit.
also, mexicans don't drink pepsi.
@godfatherofgreenbay - Because Coke is bad for my health...
@TheTheologiansCafe - lol
@TheSecretLifeOfPandas - Why not? lol
@godfatherofgreenbay - Maybe you just didn't put enough booze in it...?
@nattata - I don't know. almost all the mexicans I know drink only coke. lol.
