Except that in the case of Pepsi and Coke, BLIND taste tests actually slightly favour Pepsi, more people preferring the taste of Pepsi over the taste of Coke (and almost everybody CAN taste a difference, only preference is different), however non-blind taste tests favour Coke at over 75%.
So, kind of a bad analogy.

Also, in before politics lock.

P.S. Hmm, maybe the analogy is not that bad at all, just the contents of the message in the photo is inaccurate. Bear

Prefer Pepsi, but will drink Coke too. All depends on which one is on offer at the time. Lol

Are you kidding ? Coke is sweeter by a whole lot.
Hmm, wait, are we talking HFCS Coke/Pepsi or regular sugar Coke/Pepsi ?
I'm on the regular sugar ones.

I'm a fan of Pepsi. I think part of the reason people prefer Coke to Pepsi is the fact that Coke is easier to say than Pepsi. One syllable versus two.

Then again, maybe it is the taste. Who knows?

pepsi is a better mixer for dark rum.
coke is better simply over ice.

traditional (cloudy) lemonade and ginger ale are better still

That choice is like the choice of what boob size you prefer. Of course we have our preferences but will go with whatever, so long as is not flat.

Coke imported from Mexico as it has real cane sugar and not HFCS.

Have a "friend" that prefers Pepsi over coke, he is an idiot.

Surrender is still your slightly less painful option.

Yeah, I do buy a glass bottle coke now and then as well, especially if i want to make a hamburger dinner. But 85% is water,10% coffee, the rest is milk or something with sugar :P

Both are disgusting. Dr. Pepper is a far superior drink. IBC Root Beer / Cream Soda as well.
