While we're on the subject - do you guys like dr. Pepper?
I bought it once just to taste it (it isn't popular in my country) and wanted to puke. It tastes like flavoured sugar. But I guess that's how most drinks in America are, aren't they?

Also, bud beer. Decided to try it while I was in America to see if it really tastes like piss as they say. Found out that it doesn't. It just tastes like soda. What's with you Americans and your addiction to sweetness?

@X-tube Good advice

Pepsi blue is slightly sweetened water, I never understood it.

From what I understood Dr. Pepper was contemporary Saspirilla.
Dr Pepper has a PHD, Mr Coke is just a regular guy.

Vanilla or Regular coke (normal or frozen) reigns supreme imo.
Second comes Coke/ Diet Coke with Lime. I fucking hate DC, but the one with like tastes nice. 

Pepsi Max> Pepsi imo
Konami BOD are watching this thread getting high saying to each other "Don't worry, there's no Castlevania.."

Even Coca-Cola uses a syrup recipe. But it does taste better then Pepsi. I'll drink Pepsi if there's nothing else, but I'm a Coke guy through & through.

I'm aware that it does, but with Pepsi I can outright just feel the syrup when I drink it. I don't ever feel that when I drink Coke.

I have the craving every now and then. I don't find the drink to be offensive in any way. I also go for the occasional Mountain Dew Voltage. That drink has far more sugar then either Dr. Pepper or Coke.

I can't stand Dr Pepper. It doesn't taste like a soda should, to me.

My favorite drink is Diet 7UP, but in light of the damage that soda has been doing to my teeth over my short life (I DRINK A LOT OF SODA), I've started cutting back on Soda and I've just taken up mead instead if I don't have to be driving, and chocolate milk when I DO have to drive. Gatorade/Powerade is an occasional treat for me.

I miss drinking soda all the time.

As well as general health excess consumption of sugar can cause diabetes.

If the craving returns maybe try to switch to carbonated mineral water instead?

I enjoy at least one daily carbonated beverage but I try to avoid drinking soda more than once per day.

In fact I find coke, pepsi and the like probably help with digestion more than anything. While drinking something heavy and uncarbonated after a meal doesn't really agree with me.

No kidding. Fortunately, mead might actually be a rare alcoholic beverage that makes one healthier.

Pepsi, Dr.Pepper, and Mountain Dew are like the holy trinity for me right now. Been drinking way too much pop lately (at least 20oz a day), since I had to stop weightlifting for a couple months due to an injury. My diet and motivation both go to crap when I'm not exercising, and that usually means switching over from water to pop.

Aside from Coca Cola, I also like Dr. Pepper and root beers, but I don't drink much soda nowadays except when I need a sugar rush.

I wonder if by being an uber heretic and mixing Coca-Cola, Pepsi, and Dr Pepper, I might make a reasonable facsimile to New Coke.

The more I talk about New Coke the more I want to try something like it.

Caffeine is a diuretic.

Therefore, the best analogy I can use is mixing Coke and Pepsi like mixing 2pac and Biggie.

If things go bad = dumpin'

That is all.

One thing I haven't seen for years is Clearly Canadian. Flavored, carbonated water. Used to love that stuff as a kid. Same with Quest...Quest was awesome. Anyone remember either of these?

I love Coke Zero.  In an odd way, it reminds me of the non-syrupy Coke of the 80's.

All you plebs and foreigners with your Cokes and Pepsis. Real Americans drink RC Cola!

Oh gosh, don't remind me of the horrible taste of Pepsi Blue. /shudders

Whaaaaat, I loved Pepsi Blue! Man, I haven't had that since 2003. :(
