So you're saying the carbonation is the best part of Pepsi? The thing you like most is the parts where the liquid is not?  You misunderstood. The carbonation helps to spread the suagary liquid goodness all over the inside of my nose.

Coke is more acidic and Pepsi has a medicine taste with truckloads of sugar in it. Not surprising I guess, considering Pepsi was invented by a pharmacist looking to create a good tasting digestive aid. I give him a fail on the digestive aid part but a win on the taste.

When I saw a post about Mexican coke I was really worried about y'all.
While I always preferred Pepsi over Coke cause I don't like too much carbonation, I completely switch to Mt. Dew years ago. I've heard that dark colas can cause kidney stones due to the type of acids used. Been down that road once, and once was enough.

I wonder if another pharmacist invented "sarsaparilla"(root beer)?

Well, if you're really worried about your health, you wouldn't be drinking sodas at all, right?  I'll stick with my once in awhile Coca-Cola habit--either aluminum can, or Mexican glass bottle. Yes, I do like the taste of aluminum. I'm weird.

OhioKyle, I'd hate for you to be not drinking coke for the wrong reasons. Take a look at what snopes.com has to say on the subject. I'd like to point out a key quotation: "Besides, the gastric acid in your stomach is much stronger thatn any of the acids in Coca-Cola, so the Coca-Cola is harmless." Well, harmless in the acidic sense. If you drink a lot of ANY cola and don't supplement your daily fluidic intake with plain water, you're harming yourself in the long run. Moderation, people.

They finally got the Mexican Coca-Cola back in at our Costco, so I picked some up. Pretty good, but I'm not sure I'll ever pay the premium again. Still, it will be nice to have around to offer guests for a while. Bottles are so much cooler.
