They taste exactly the same to me, but my wife can tell them apart. She likes Pepsi and *doesn't* like Coca-Cola...that's insane.
I'm sure I could tell the difference if I had a can of each and alternated between sips. But to immediately know whether one is Coke or Pepsi just by the taste? Pfft.
Maybe it's because I rarely drink soda.

@vivify saidI think the easiest way to tell the difference is in the spelling.

@vivify saidYour taste buds are not up to standard, clearly. You cannot become a cook / chef.

@very-rusty saidDoes that also work with Pepsi?
Coca-Cola...If you pour a can or bottle of it down a drain that is clogged, leave it over night, it will eat through it and open the blockage. I once saw that done as a kid and never drank Coca-Cola again. Imagine what it must do to your stomach?

@ghost-of-a-duke saidThat works with a whole pile of drinks which people normally consume.

@very-rusty saidyour stomach acids are so strong that they would not only eat through the blockage but would eat through the pipes as well

heavy cola drinkers need to worry about their teeth more

@ghost-of-a-duke saidI really don't know, but never drank either one after I saw that being done and actually working on the clogged pipe. The next step of course would have been to run a snake down the pipe, which can put a leak in the pipe if not done properly.

A growing body of evidence suggests that diet soda consumption correlates with an increased risk of a wide range of medical conditions, notably: heart conditions, such as heart attack and high blood pressure. metabolic issues, including diabetes and obesity. brain conditions, such as dementia and stroke.
@rajk999 saidBased on that I’m switching immediately to full fat regular Coke 🤔

Based on that, switch to none.
