According to the
Independent, researchers have proven that
the difference between Coke and Pepsi really is all in your head. Apparently the popularity of Coke's brand image causes people to think Coca-Cola itself tastes better, even though it really doesn't taste very different from Pepsi. As the article says:
"When asked to taste blind, they showed no preference. However, when the participants were shown company logos before they drank, the Coke label, the more famous of the two, had a dramatic impact: three-quarters of the tasters declared they preferred Coke." I've long suspected this. Personally I can't taste any difference between Coke and Pepsi, but I have a friend who swears passionately that there's a huge difference. Now I can show him this research to prove that he's simply been brainwashed by advertising. Oh, and the Pepsi Taste Test also turns out to be nothing but hot air:
"The findings suggest there is no scientific basis for claims made during the Pepsi ad campaign in which testers purportedly chose Pepsi over Coke when they were not told what they were drinking."

I just wanna know WHY! what is the difference??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?! COKE is Like A FLAT pepsi!
And those crappy pepsi commercials! The always have to dis Coca-Cola... that proves Coke is better
They have the same ingredients, and same nutritional values-meaning if they do contain the same thing theyre coincidentally the same energy as well, which is rare when you mix different ingredients.
ill take either one actually, cant taste the difference.but the truth of the matter is... u get the same affect whether u drink coke or pepsi.u become a big fattie and drink the crap uncontrollibly.
gotta love the brown fuzzy junk, though

i hate it when ppl say you cant tell the difference, i sure can.
pepsi SUCKS coke rocks.
1.It was invented first (1886 baby, yeah!)
2.It tastes way better
3.it has a bitchin logo
4.It has an amazing song "do do do do do always coca cola yeah!"...sorry...couldn't help myself...
5.It doesn't go flat as quick as pepsi
6.it is sweeter
7. It has a better after taste
8. The polar bears are just cute.
9. It's traditional and brings Old and new generations together. My grandma and I can sit on the patio and drink Coke and talk about how she use to drink Coke with her grandma. So, the history itself is greater than "Pepsi" so yeah...

I've seen several clinical studies done and participated in two of them. These are done with 1 ounce small cups of Pepsi and Coke, six of each, for a total of 12 samples. Between each sample a small cracker is eaten to clear the palate. In every study, fewer than 6% of people were able to figure out which drink was which.
The one I remember most clearly was one I actually got tested in myself, in which only 2 people out of 47 were able to pick out which drink was which. In fact, one of the two missed one. No one else was even close. In ever other instance, the 45 people tested missed 4 or more guesses as to which product they were drinking at the time.
This was a blind test, in which the small cups were labeled only with numbers corresponding to what was in the cup, the numbers and types of course kept out of view.
Also, Pepsi does NOT have more sugar, Coke has some 10 to 12 percent more sugar/syrup than Pepsi does.
Get educated about a product before you go posting.
so burn.
