Question

What's the difference between pepsi and coke?

Answer 1

to me nothing they taste the same to me if no one tells me it's Pepsi I think it's coke but some people say they taste a difference but no me

Answer 2

Texture and sweetness and carbonation

Answer 3

It turns out that there are different cokes, depending on the country where you happen to buy it. In the USA the coke syrup is compounded in the USA and uses ingredients that are approved by the FDA, even though they don't have to reveal their recipe because the FDA came after they did and they are grandfathered. For sweetening, it is known that corn sugar is used because it is less expensive than cane sugar.

The Coke you buy in Mexico contains essence compounded in Ireland, outside the reach of US regulations, and when bottled in Mexico, is mixed with cane sugar.

In other countries there are most likely similar variations due to different prevailing costs for available ingredients. So while we all thought the Coke is always the same the world over, the taste might be the same but the contents do differ.

Pepsi had to develop their own recipe to imitate Coke as close as they could with available ingredients. We will never know the exact difference between the two because the recipes of each of them are very closely guarded trade secrets, known to very few people.

Answer 4

pepsi has more of a taste...coke has more carbonation.

Answer 5

okay

there are some differences which is rather obvious after tasting the two

firstly, Pepsi is sweeter than coke

secondly,the amt of gas in coke is way more than the amt of gas and coke

and in my case the third point the aftertaste

the main diff for me in the aftertaste is that after swallowing the pespi you can actually taste the flavour of the pespi

and for coke you can still feel the fizz of the gas

yeah that it

hope this is useful

Answer 7

brand name, slight taste difference.

Other than that, they're pretty much the same, because they are competitors.

Answer 8

The syrup is "suppose" to be different, but coke does not taste like it use to years and years ago.

Answer 9

Pepsi has more sugar in it.  Coke is said to have more carbonation in it.

Answer 10

Pepsi has more sugar!!!

Answer 11

Pepsi is a more sweet syrup tasting pop and Coke is a more harsh, stong tasting pop...I love Coke (Cherry)!

Other than that you might be able to smell the sweetness compared to the strong smell..but they are both brown and fizzy...but I think Coke makes you burp more.

Answer 12

i think pepsi is sweeter.. Coke has a weird taste to it that I always get after the first few sips. its kind of like a grassy feeling.. Ne way i like pepsi better..

Answer 13

Big dif in terms of cola. Pepsi is more crisp- which I hate. Coke is smoother.

Answer 14

Well, the most obvious one is that they have different names. If I were thinking harder, I might say that pepsi is less sweet than coke (only, that's my opinion)

Why are you asking anyway?
