If you cannot tell the difference between Pepsi and Coke, then why does it matter which one you drink?

Question

Many people are very picky about their soda flavors, yet studies show when blindfolded, people don't know which one is which! So why are we all so picky?

Answer 1

i don't know, i'll drink either one!

Answer 2

It matters to the people @ Coca Cola and Pepsi Cola.

Sales, Sales,Sales!!

You don't need to be blindfolded to taste the stuff..

It also happens when you're given an unidentified

cup of the drink and are asked to determine which is

which. Most people can't tell. They need product name

recognition to help them decide. That's where the

billboard, and tv adds come in.

I like Coca Cola better that Pepsi Cola.

Pepsi has a sweeter taste and doesn't have as much

fizz . I feel bloated after one 12 oz. can.

Coke is not as sweet has a stronger fizz to it.

I like it better when I get an ice cold can or bottle and

pour it into a glass with ice cubes. Heaven!!!

But I've been fooled several times before.

I've participated in several Cola tastings where they

have Coke, Pepsi and another brand, Royal Crown Cola,

( RC to you). I always pick RC....and so do alot of other

people. RC always wins! That's b/c I believe it's taste is in between  Coke and Pepsi. I can't tell you how surprized I

am when they tell me which one I chose.

All I can tell you is, I still buy Coke.

Life long exposure to the constant adds and commercials have conditioned me to do that. The psychology that goes into these commercials cause us to be picky.

Hoping that helps you in some way.

Hmm. It matters not to me which I have. But I'm not much of a cola person these days.

Now the diet version, now there IS a difference. Just not the regular.
