Coke > Everything else > pepsi

diet pepsi, in particular, tastes like toilet bowl cleaner smells.

Diet Cola in general is shite, but I feel the same way about Diet Coke. It really tastes like vomit.   :-&

Faygo isn't the greatest, but I do enjoy
the looks that people give me when I walk around with one in my hand.  8)

"Juggalos man, Juggalos."

My vote recount explained:

I don't drink soda ~ Ok, I really try no avoid soda altogether. Every once in a while though, I'll have one.

TurboGrafx-16 rules dude! ~  :clap: I never had one as a kid!

kosher brands only dude ~ This is a must for me. While I try to stay away from soda generally, I will absolutely refuse to drink a non-kosher soda.

safeway ~ Safeway's cola is Kosher, so it makes the cut. Back around 8th and 9th grade I remember safeway cola and french bread being staples at a friends house, so there is some sentimental value as well.

How could you make cola unkosher? does regular cola contain pig bits or something?  :shock:

Read your papers tomorrow to read about Kitsune's untimely demise at the hands of an ax-wielding, psychopathic, killer clown.  ICP fans are rabid little bastards, ain't they?  :lol:

Guyjin, I don't know the answer to your question, but I found some info about special Kosher for Passover Coca Cola here

It's made with sugar instead of corn syrup, which may help with the passover aspect.

Pork products may be used somewhere in the refining process for regular coca cola... I really don't know. Unless there's some Kosher certification on it, I won't drink it.

Sams club has coke imported from mexico where it is made with sugar and bottled in glass bottles. I usually get those because I prefer the taste of real sugar over highfructose corn syrup. I don't mind high fructose corn syrup as much if its in a fountain drink though.

Diet sodas are a lot worse for you health-wise than regular soda. You shouldn't really drink either, but if you have to drink soda, drink regular soda. The artificial sweeteners used in diet sodas are very VERY bad for you and, especially if you're a diabetic, do far more harm than good. Unless that diet soda is sweetened with stevia (you'll never find this normally in the USA but I hear it's pretty common in Japan), drop it and run away from it.

Agreed. And it looks like Nod beat me to the post about how diet products are bad for you. Diet pops give me a headache.

Mr. Stroger looks more like the dad from Family Matters, actually.

I chose Pepsi though i do prefer pepsi max, it is 'Pop' though.
It's nice to hear an Englishmen use the word pop! Is it the common word out there?

Well like america its regional, i live in the north and my southern friends are perplexed that i call it pop, they think it sounds all 80's, but all my most closest friends  and family call it pop
