Which Coca-Cola do you prefer?

***Zardon*** · Jun 7, 2003, 01:24 PM

Ill stick with ordinary, full fat coke, as I like it the best, but im quite getting a taste for the vanilla flavoured one.

BiGBrOwNPimpsta · Jun 7, 2003, 01:36 PM

i cant stand anything but coke and coke products. seriously the majority of their products are far better (i.e. nestea, coke, spirte) and they dont try so fooking hard to be so commercial. seriously, all around the world ppl dont even know wut cola means, they refer to it as a coke. but yes i choose regular coke cause it rocks, i dont like the others, but lemon aint bad!

I prefer the ordinary one from a bottle ice cold although I haven't tried the vanilla one yet.

***craig5320*** · Jun 7, 2003, 01:37 PM

I like the vanilla one, I'd like the lemon if it wasn't jus' diet like in the UK, Cherry coke is also very nice, but then there's classic coke, oh oh decisions decisions, i like them all!

Dom · Jun 7, 2003, 01:43 PM

You forgot decaf and diet-decaf.

I drink diet-decaf.

fornicatarachnid · Jun 7, 2003, 01:46 PM

Ordinary but I agree it has to be ice-cold

Dyre Straits · Jun 7, 2003, 01:46 PM

I am a Diet Coke addict. I have to admit it.

I'll drink a 'regular' coke whenever I can't get a Diet...and I'll only very occasionally drink a Vanilla Diet.

I'm not much on 'sweets' and I think the regular coke is just a bit too sweet to suit my taste. Same goes for the Vanilla flavor.

And, you didn't ask, but I CANNOT stand Pepsi!

Little known fact!

The Coca-Cola name in China was first read as "Kekoukela", meaning "Bite the wax tadpole" or "Female horse stuffed with wax", depending on the dialect. Coke then researched 40,000 characters to find a phonetic equivalent "kokou kole", translating into "happiness in the mouth."

Found this out here along with some other uses for the stuff!

**MIG-31** · Jun 7, 2003, 02:05 PM

coca cola standard can't beat the taste of it

MikeDaMan · Jun 7, 2003, 02:19 PM

I'm quite the fan of Cherry Coke....I guess I got sick of the regular taste of coke.

toddsmack2k · Jun 7, 2003, 02:43 PM

Classic coca-cola for me. It sucked when they quit making it in the 80's and all you could get was coke. A close second though is that vanilla coke they came out with. I think we all agree that a ice cold anything taste's better in a bottle.

WOW ! I didnt know that bro

DallasStar · Jun 7, 2003, 03:17 PM

Cherry coke is not only my favorite coke product, it's my favorite soft drink. All of you who haven't tried it should definitely check it out.

Junk · Jun 7, 2003, 03:43 PM

i can do both colas, but i prefer pepsi much more than coke. i do prefer cherry coke over wild cherry pepsi though, so i guess it kinda evens itself out..

LOL ! Have you nothing better to do Mr Kinetic ? My garden needs weeding

Rayder · Jun 7, 2003, 04:10 PM

I picked "Don't like cola at all". I WILL drink a cola (or water) if there is nothing else, but I prefer Mountain Dew (regular and cherry) or Barq's Root beer.

Mountain Dew is how I quit drinking alcohol. I used to guzzle beer like a lush. Now I guzzle Mountain Dew like a lush. I'm rushing almost all the time.

I could never acquire a taste for that, but its popular.

toddsmack2k · Jun 7, 2003, 07:10 PM

Actually it is not too bad but man does it make me have some hellacious burps.

***craig5320*** · Jun 7, 2003, 07:31 PM

I love Dr. Pepper. and the adverts are great! What's the worst that could happen?

Falstaff · Jun 7, 2003, 07:52 PM

Just as bad as coca cola burps....but without making that cola brown aerosol cloud around the person burping, ha ha..

ToshiroOC · Jun 7, 2003, 08:43 PM

Irn Bru is the bomb... but its damn near impossible to find it here in the states

I like Dr. Pepper a lot, Vanilla Coke is ok some of the time but original Coke... cannot be beat.

EDIT: Irn Bru. A Scot once told me that if you drink too much, you'd burn a hole in your stomach

Despite what the site says, more of a sugar-cane taste, if you ask me. Very similar to Kolashampan, a soda from El Salvador. I get it from the local hispanic liquor store, good stuff

what would you say dr. pepper is supposed to taste like?

eyeguy616 · Jun 7, 2003, 09:09 PM

Oooo, how about Red Fusion? I like its smooth taste, even straight from the can! Of course if you go to Kroger (big grocery store chain) they have a line of store brand drinks that are like $3 for a twelve pack, sometimes $5 for a twenty-four pack! Their "Dr. K" is like a sweeter Dr. Pepper, which I thoroughly enjoy drinking. They also have this weird new drink, "Drop Red" that has 55g sugar!!!

It kind of tastes like Cherry 7-Up, but the cherry taste is a little better. Also, you forgot Pepsi Blue and New Coke. I like Pepsi Blue's radical taste and deep blue color. Sadly, I never got to taste the "New Coke" Coca-Cola made to combat Pepsi's taste test challenge a long time ago. Some people said they hated the taste yet others (like my older brothers and parents) kinda liked it.

Aren't carbonated beverages wonderful?

I voted for regular Coke...but Irn Bru just beats it up and leaves it lying in the gutter

Scotland is the only country in the world where Coke is outsold by another soft drink (yes Irn Bru)... and not only is it good...its a great hangover cure

Well Dr. Pepper is a Coke product

Mountain Dew is a Pepsi product

I like them both (Mountain Dew especially mmmmmmmmm ..... Mountain Dew)

Some UFI for you guys ... Addicted too coke ?????????
No links to support this(of course) .... might be just a myth .........

I heard years ago from my grandparents the original Coke included ingredients dervied from the Coco Plant.
Well at that time the derivative of the plant which is used too manufacture cocaine was not removed

Love Coca Cola ????????????
