Pick your preference.
mine is Pepsi or Dr. Pepper. (I didn't know dr. pepper was its own company!) Fine, RC Cola falls under neither.
Whats it gonna be?

Not that I have drank more than 2 sugary sodas in the last 5 years (1/2 a ginger ale with Bacardi gold, and a Sprite with Jack Daniels) but Coke beats Pepsi, but most Pepsico drinks beat Coke drinks.

I mostly drink Mt Dew Zero, but Coke Zero is...eh, Pepsi Zero is bad bad bad. Diet Dr Pepper isn't all that bad. I have yet to find Dr Pepper Zero, but it now exists (since early 2021 just haven't been soda shopping).

I don't drink much diet soda either, it is probably as bad as sugary soda.

When I did drink soda, Mt Dew, then the return to sugar (and not HFCS) was great. I had to drink Mellow Yellow for awhile when stationed in Mississippi, then Surge was a thing, but back to Mt Dew.

Also anything from Mexico is 10000x better, glass bottle or not. The Coke is better, 7Up, and the fruity Jarritos (grapefruit and tequila the best Paloma), grapefruit, pineapple, and mango.

I mean.. are we talking preference or what we drink on the daily? It’s rare for me to have any soda(maybe once every other week) I carry about a gallon of water at work, and a half gallon of home made sweet tea. Seems like the perfect mix for me.

I used to drink about 10 Red Bull’s and smoke 4 packs of Reds a day a few years back, until one very hot day my body collapsed in a customers yard at 2 in the afternoon.

That was the cable life in the company I worked with years back. Everyone did it. Kinda just grows on ya I guess. I mean, running 12-15 hours, days straight, sometimes 10 in a row without a day off.

US bottlers sweeten the drink with corn syrup. The rest of the world uses actual sugar, and yes it is 10000x better.

IBC Cream Soda for me, please.

They never have Pepsi at the restaurants around here and it drives me crazy.

"We don't have Pepsi, is Coke okay"

And cane sugar > HFCS

I basically grew up on Coke, but I think Pepsi is good too. Recently I've noticed I've been avoiding most sugary drinks, they just don't appeal to me anymore, try to drink plain ole water as much as I can. Haven't even seen any RC since I was in grade school, the other night I was thinking it would be interesting to mix RC with Crown Royal.
