i like vanilla coke but that probably has something to do with liking coke. pepsi tastes like crap. crystal clear pepsi was even worse, possibly the worst non-diet, non-caffeine free soda ever.

like someone said, vanilla coke + captain mo' is da bomb...

I think there is a distinct difference. Maybe I'll buy a can of each and have someone pour them into cups just to see if I can really taste the difference.

I like it, mainly because Pepsi tastes better than Coke.

I also like Chocolate Coke, try and find that. Whenever I order it where I can, I just get wierd looks but I like it a lot. My friends call it liquid poop in a glass.

Its not really vanilla, but naming it "Pepsi Manjuice" just wouldn't have worked out too well.

that statistic can't bee true for obvious reasons. for the sake of argument lets say 99% is close enough to 100% to say everyone.

Everyone would think pepsi is coke
Everyone would think coke is pepsi

Not a chance. If they were just guessing it would be no where near that high of a percentage.

perhaps they had each subject try several sets of samples, and only those who got most or all of them correct "passed the test". then the 99% statistic (which im skeptical about too) wouldnt be impossible, just unlikely. or maybe they had each subject try 50 sets of samples and only those who got 50/50 right "passed the test". then i believe the 99% stat.

that 99% could mean anything =)

they have very distinct tastes. as for which is better... i prefer coke, but it just depends on what i feel like drinking :)

i tried vanilla pepsi last night. the combination doesn't blend as well as vanilla coke.

i wouldn't drink either of them regularly, though.

i had quite a bit over the weekend, and after about half a can i have to really concentrate to tell whether im drinking vanilla pepsi or just pepsi. im the same way with red fusion, i taste the difference at first but after half a can i cant tell whether im drinking red fusion or original dp.
