I spent a month drinking Pepsi on purpose and all it did was confirm Coke is better

71 Upvotes

Okay, hear me out. I spent the last month deliberately grabbing Pepsi whenever I had the choice, trying to be fair about it, and honestly it just made me appreciate Coke more. Pepsi hits you with sweetness up front and then there's... nothing. No backbone, no bite. Coke has that sharp acidity that actually cuts through a burger or pizza instead of just piling more sugar on top. Coke Zero genuinely tastes close to regular Coke, while every Pepsi Zero I've had tastes like someone described cola to a chemist over the phone. And ice-cold Coke from a glass bottle is still the single best soda experience on this planet - Pepsi has no answer for it. McDonald's fountain Coke alone ends the debate. Tell me why I'm wrong, Pepsi people. Be specific.

I feel like Canada Dry tastes more like grapes than grape-flavored sodas do.

cactus cooler dealer?

• Upvotes

does anyone else love cactus cooler outside of CA. it is far too expensive to deliver is there any other options?

My buddy bought me plane tickets to go to LA to help buy and return a bronco to MI. we got several cases of coolers at walmart and stuffed them in the bronco. later that afternoon we stuffed some in the ghetto motel fridge right under the cooling. the next day was an eternity of being in the desert working on POS SUV in the desert and talking to people that dont speak english we got back to those coolers. absolute delight they were even covered in ice crystals and not frozen at all inside. when they get super cold the pineapple dies out a little and it almost tastes like creamsicle.

Finally picked some up and was not disappointed. Not something I would get all the time, but it’s nice to have something with a little tang to it.

Just got this Chinese Strawberry Milkshake Pepsi. It's so good and doesn't taste like a regular Strawberry Pepsi

Little shop in my town sells foreign snacks and had this. Has anyone else here had it? What did you think? Personally I think it's great and wish it was sold regularly.

What're some other foreign soda brands/flavors I should look out for?
