Question

Whats the difference between coca-cola and pepsi?

Answer 1

coca-cola use to have cocaine in it and i dont think pepsi did

Answer 2

The actual ingredients and amount. Including but not limited to; caffeine, high fructose corn syrup, sugar and sodium. If you taste test them both you'll see ones sweeter than the other and one stronger in caffeine and carbonation.

-as for which one tastes better is up to the persons taste and is ONLY an opinion.

Answer 3

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."

Answer 4

personally in my opinion coke is more bubbly then pepsi otherwise the taste is the same

Answer 5

Pepsi's better, and coke eats at your stomach.

Answer 6

Well pepsi taste alot better than coca-cola

Pepsi is sweeter, and after you drink coke, your teeth feel like there is a film on them or something. Coke is strong. You can pour a can of coke in the toilet and by morning time your toilet will be clean. Also for oil stains in the driveway. And once my boyfriend used it to fix a car not sure how but i seen him it wasn't working he pored that somewhere and then it started.

Answer 10

They both use different formulas of course but if u do a taste test u can taste the differences like in Coke it tastes like theres a little vanilla but some ppl cant taste the differences  

Answer 11

First of all that depends on wheter you are using foutnain drinks or bottled and canned drinks.

Coke is more acidic, and unhealther.  The Coca-Cola company is also far less econmically responsible and doesn't sponser programs as good as the ones PepsiCo. sponsers.  I am not sure if Pepsi is available internationally, if so Coke is available in more countries.

From a fountain machine, Coke can have a better mixture (soda vs. syrup) and last longer before beoming syrupy/flat/hot.  In my opinion Coke from a fountain tastes better.  Occasionally you will run into a Pepsi fountain that is caliberated very well as well.

From a bottle, Pepsi tastes better in my opinion.  Diet Pepsi is sweeter-tasing then Diet Coke.  Coke in a can goes flat MUCH sooner then Pepsi, almost instantly if you don't keep it cold.  However, flat Coke-in-a-can is stil drinkable if cold, and flat Pepsi-in-a-can is not.  Warm Coke-in-a-can is much more carbonated then warm Pepsi-in-a-can, which makes it better to drink if warm.  Bottled Coke (warm or not) is also differently-carbonated then Pepsi - it has smaller bubbles  which cause more fizz - which often makes Coke from a bottle taste more like the fizz then the actual product.

Coke has better, and longer-lasting promotions for their bottle caps.  However, the current promotion, Coke's has been going on three years, Pepsi's for three months, but Pepsi's current promotion is better then Coke's.

Coca-Cola is more likely to restore your lost points, etc., in a promotion, help you with a personal error, or accureately resolve customer service concerns.

Flavored and special Pepsi products have more varity, and most taste better with the flavoring the Coke's flavored products though Pepsi Vanilla tastes mostly like alchohol.

Pepsi is marketed to a younger target group.

Answer 12

none! They are both bad for you! Drinking them is a slow suicide.

Answer 13

Coke is more sweeter, while Pepsi is more crisp.

Answer 14

First of all, coke is WAY BETTER!!! and second of all they are made by ttly diff companies. Coke also makes Fanta, Vault, Sprite, Dasani and a bunch of others. Also there is cherry coke, vanilla coke, coke with lime, and other kinds of coke too. pepsi also makes aquafina, but i think thats it.  

Answer 15

the different thing about pepsi and coke-a-colo is the name, taste, and the calories than the other.  

Answer 16

The taste is different associated with the differences of the ingredients and proportions they put within their formula for it.

Try for yourself........taste Coca Cola and Pepsi while looking then cover your eyes and try them and see if you can tell the difference. I can tell the difference...many people stated that Pepsi tends to be to sweet for their taste...I am one of those people.

Answer 17

Answer 21

Answer 22

Answer 23

coca cola is a slightly harder drink than pepsi. pepsi is more sweeter than coke as it represents youth...............coke was originally a drug drink u may know coke ......so that is how it has a name coke and once wen pepsi was launched it tried to sweeten it s product as well but there was a revoke in the U.S.as to y has the taste been changed so they had to reinstate the actual taste
