Coke or Pepsi?

Answer 1

pepsi

Answer 2

When I drank soda I preferred Pepsi over Coke but my favorite was the Dew. I stopped drinking sodas (by choice) for health reasons. I now drink a natural and healthy energy drink twice a day (8am & Noon). It is the first energy drink to hit the market in the form of a powder so you can easily mix it up no matter where you are at as you just pour the contents of the ez 2 carry packet (fits easily into your pocket) into the beverage of your choice, shake it up, and you have got an energy drink. It is awesome and extreme natural energy. If you or anyone else would like a couple of FREE SAMPLES check out my profile or the link below to get yours sent to you

Answer 9

You'd be better off drinking a beer. Better for you! Did you know that Cops use Coke to clean blood off the highways after a car wreck. Coke has so much acid in it that it will eat away at the ring in your toilet bowl that bleach can't even get rid of. Why the F**k do you want to put that in your body... just drink a beer!

Answer 10

The preference for Coke versus Pepsi is not only a matter for the tongue to decide, Samuel McClure and his colleagues have found. Brain scans of people tasting the soft drinks reveal that knowing which drink they're tasting affects their preference and activates memory-related brain regions that recall cultural influences. Thus, say the researchers, they have shown neurologically how a culturally based brand image influences a behavioral choice.
These choices are affected by perception, wrote the researchers, because "there are visual images and marketing messages that have insinuated themselves into the nervous systems of humans that consume the drinks."

Even though scientists have long believed that such cultural messages affect taste perception, there had been no direct neural probes to test the effect, wrote the researchers. Findings about the effects of such cultural information on the brain have important medical implications, they wrote.

"There is literally a growing crisis in obesity, type II diabetes, and all their sequelae that result directly from or are exacerbated by overconsumption of calories. It is now strongly suspected that one major culprit is sugared colas," they wrote.

Besides the health implications of studying soft drink preference, the researchers decided to use Coke and Pepsi because-- even though the two drinks are nearly identical chemically and physically--people routinely strongly favor one over the other. Thus, the two soft drinks made excellent subjects for rigorous experimental studies.

In their study, the researchers first determined the Coke versus Pepsi preference of 67 volunteer subjects, both by asking them and by subjecting them to blind taste tests. They then gave the subjects sips of one drink or the other as they scanned the subjects' brains using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). In this widely used imaging technique, harmless magnetic fields and radio signals are used to measure blood flow in regions of the brain, with such flow indicating brain activity levels. In the experiments, the sips were preceded by either "anonymous" cues of flashes of light or pictures of a Coke or Pepsi can.

The experimental design enabled the researchers to discover the specific brain regions activated when the subjects used only taste information versus when they also had brand identification. While the researchers found no influence of brand knowledge for Pepsi, they found a dramatic effect of the Coke label on behavioral preference. The brand knowledge of Coke both influenced their preference and activated brain areas including the "dorsolateral prefrontal cortex" and the hippocampus. Both of these areas are implicated in modifying behavior based on emotion and affect. In particular, wrote the researchers, their findings suggest "that the hippocampus may participate in recalling cultural information that biases preference judgments."

The researchers concluded that their findings indicate that two separate brain systems--one involving taste and one recalling cultural influence--in the prefrontal cortex interact to determine preferences.

Answer 11

It depends on the mood. I like them both.
There is a definite taste difference.
We had a psychology class at a local highschool do a taste test.
They switched the drinks and labeled them wrong and all of the men did not know the difference but every single woman knew the difference.
Interesting.
