Coke for sure.
I hardly drink soft drinks anymore and order diet when I do (which I once couldn't drink without almost gagging), but this apparently showed up also on Facebook and 2 of my 3 children...separately tagged me on it.

What's the difference? They both taste the same.

The Mexican Coke is made with real cane sugar (I used to work for Coca Cola). Most of the local mexican stores carry it.

The reason you see so much Pepsi here is that one of Pepsi's largest bottling operations in the US is near us (Orlando). They will nearly give the syrup away to keep local places serving their product. Same for Coca Cola.

And no, Pepsi is NOT OK - not if you like Coke. Pepsi just tastes way to syrupy and sweet. My favorite is Coke Zero. However - prior to joining Coca Cola, one of my favorite sodas was Diet Mountain Dew. Luckily, Coca Cola came out with Mello Yello Zero 9 years ago, and it's pretty close to Mountain Dew - way closer than Pepsi is to Coke.

I like fountain coke over Pepsi, but bottled or canned I prefer Pepsi. Coke tastes too syrupy to me in can or bottle, but not as bad as dr. Pepper

Try Jack, or Jim beam, that clear you sinuses. Don’t even try real Mountain Dew.

Whenever I order a Pepsi and the staff person says “ did u want diet “ my response is always” r u calling me fat” if my husband is with me he says “ Did u just call my wife fat” We always get a good laugh out of their reaction, and they do too.

Then there's the customer who says, "I'll have two chocolate eclairs, two of the large peanut butter cookies, three slices of cheesecake, a cinnamon roll...and a diet Coke."
