coke is better than pepsi
vault is better than mt. dew
mt. dew code red has no challengers and shall remain great

pepsi, although slightly sweeter, tastes watered down compared to coca cola. a nice cold glass of coke owns every other cola.

No one goes to a bar and asks for a Rum and Pepsi.

That's because of Coke's marketing machine, even us Pepsi fans know that almost no place serves Pepsi (save KFC).

I like other Pepsi products (Dr. Pepper)

Dr. Pepper is owned by Cadbury Schweppes
Or at least will be soon. Right now it's distributed by either Pepsi or Coke depending on the area. In my area it's the Pepsi bottler running it, but I've been in stores 75, 100 miles away where it's in the Coke section.


And I've never liked the taste of Pepsi itself but I generally prefer Pepsi owned products.

Honestly, they don't taste THAT much different for anyone to like one and hate the other.

Pepsi is better alone.
Coke is better in a mixed drink ala Crown & Coke, or the splash in an LI Iced Tea.

yes they do, if you have the taste buds for it.
i used to drink whatever, now i am pretty much a coca cola only person. if there is pepsi, i drink it, but in disgust. at a restuarant, its either mt. dew, or coke. no pepsi if by choice.

I only drink Diet Pepsi but I like Pepsi because it has more pizazz.
