    Well... then that's a no. Lime is similar to lemon though.

    No it never gets to $5 bucks it does get to $3.50 something I won't pay that I'll drink 0.64 cents SamsClub Soda sold at Wal-Mart instead. A few weeks now its been 5x 2 liter for $4 dollars, but just for the holidays for Coke Products. A friend of mine works to Coke in IT and he can get the 20 oz bottle you get from the vendoring machine for $.50 cent.

    Yes I've been to the UK many times and Coke always taste different there than it does here. Sometimes coke can test sweet like Pepsi if mixed right in the fountains. If you don't like the way coke taste you can all them up and they'll send you a bunch of free coupons for their software. It happen to me and the wife. Vanila Coke made us sick to the stomach when it first came out. Funny coke sent me a box to fit a 2 liter box in and it could be FedEx back to them with free pickup. It took them 3 weeks for the secret call from coke test lab to get back to me with the results. They didn't want me to go to the press with it.

    Anyway I have Cherry Coke in the REFG now.. I still think Wild Cherry Pepsi taste 100% better. Coke also makes the cheap stuff called Fanta. Wow! they have Crush orange soda and Mello Yello boy this some soda empire. I wonder what happen? I guess sells couldn't meet the demand for the smaller vendors too keep up! Merge they did all of them with either coke or pepsi.

    I'm still part of the "Coice of a New Generation" even though I'm now 42!

    Although DP is the best.

    I Think I get It, But Just To Be Sure.......

    Are you sure you're only 42? Sort of young for a prog-rocker. What's that you're trying to spell, "Coitus of a new generation"?

    I miss the old coca cola tv spots (... can't beat it....) but I like the taste of pepsi better :D
    plus I don't like the new 'zero' crap. btw is it just a european product or is coke zero available all over?
     
  7. eroz Newcomer, in training Posts: 108

    It is available in the US, as well as Sprite Zero.
  8. mscrx Newcomer, in training Posts: 829

    oh nice. but you don't have fanta, do you?
  9. eroz Newcomer, in training Posts: 108

    Of course we do....Fanta, Fanta, Do you wanna Fanta?

    I think we have 4 flavors, Grape, Orange, Lemon-lime, and something else.....

    Oh.....,That Guy.....

    If they take all the caffeine and refined sugar out of Coke, all you've got left is carbonated water and food coloring. Ur, Zero..! Concur, do I. Face it, without the stimulant and the poison, you might as well drink water.

    As to the TV advertising, didn't Michael Jackson's head almost get blown off making a Pepsi commercial? I don't drink it, but God bless the Pepsi Corporation anyway! (LOL)

    Who has had Tango, tastes just like Fanta. What are the differences ?
  12. mscrx Newcomer, in training Posts: 829

    thats interesting because I was told fanta is an EU product and in America its all about 7up and other sugar waters...
    we have like 5 or 6 tastes for fanta but in only like the orange taste...

    captaincranky, you're right and I do drink water most of the time and sometimes as tea :)
    a pepsi is something I drink once in a while but coke is not what it was 10 years ago... its a different taste and I don't like it. worst thing is coke zero because the taste is even worse than diet coke (which in Germany is "coke light" - same for pepsi and others...) :D
  13. eroz Newcomer, in training Posts: 108

    Turns out there are more than 4 flavors available in the US. They are just not all available in all parts of the US.

    I have a cousin that works for Coke in Atlanta, so I voted for Coke, but I really don't have a brand peference. I brought Pepsi to his house one time, and he told me I had to get that *%i& out of there.
  15. eazy_duz_em Newcomer, in training Posts: 170

    yep...coke all the way.... same problem with pepsi being way to sweet making you more thursty.
  16. hamas123 Newcomer, in training Posts: 499

    Has anyone had tango or red bull ?
  17. eazy_duz_em Newcomer, in training Posts: 170

    red bull is cool :>... kind sweet kinda bitter...makes a cool taste :D
  18. Myzz617 Newcomer, in training Posts: 382

    Red Bull and COKE go great with most of the liquor I drink.

    Montser is pretty good also, the Green one
  19. Flash19 Newcomer, in training Posts: 36

    Pepsi all the way.

    I grew up in the American South (it's okay, I'm not racist) and my grandfather helped invent the first Minute Maid vending machines so drinking Pepsi was pretty much a sin in my grandmother's house. I've always found Pepsi to be way too sweet and watery tasting.

    If I was going to have coke with lemon, make is a regular coke with a slice of REAL lemon- thats the best. But in general I don't drink either very much anymore, new studies are coming out saying that soda is actually bad for your mitochondria. And anyone whose played Parasite Eve knows you just don't mess around with mitochondria.
