It’s one of the most asked questions of our time. A simple survey. And most people have an answer.<\/p>\n
Pepsi or Coke?<\/p>\n
It’s been a couple decades since I gave serious thought to the question. I was a Coke man. Case closed. Offer me Pepsi? I’ll ask if you have Dr. Pepper.<\/p>\n
There have been times over the years, of course, when I’ve done it. I’ve had a Pepsi now and then. It’s not terrible. You know what it tastes like? Coke. But not exactly.<\/p>\n
I will never say there’s no difference between Pepsi and Coke. Pepsi’s sweeter, while Coke has a harder “bite.” Pepsi is more or less caramelized sugar water, but no judgments here. Sometimes that’s what you’re looking for. Like all things, it is what it is. Both beverages have their place.<\/p>\n
Which brings me to my 2014 answer for Pepsi or Coke. With the benefit of a little age, a little wisdom, and a little nuance, I can say that I no longer prefer either Pepsi or Coke. They’re different beverages, and I’m going to pick the one I’m in the mood for. Sometimes I want Pepsi and sometimes I want Coke. Sometimes I want milk and sometimes I want orange juice. Debate settled.<\/p>\n
