I can't even tell the difference between Coke and Pepsi.
One's in a red can, the other in a blue one ;-)
oh well, me neither actually.
Really? How much soda do you drink? The difference is readily noted by me. I can even tell the difference between regular and diet Coke.
This seems to suggest that it is easier to tell the difference between Coke and Pepsi than it is to tell the difference between regular and diet. I can tell the difference between all of them, but the first is a lot harder and I think that experience is pretty common. Most diet drinks use aspartame as a sugar substitute and aspartame leaves a very distinctive aftertaste in my mouth.
Wait, is that supposed to be harder? I'm not sure I could tell the difference between Coke and Pepsi, but I think I could tell the difference between regular and diet.
I don't like cola very much, so if you gave me a drink of fizzy black stuff, I wouldn't be able to identify which brand it was. Also, other sodas have a tendency to give me heartburn so I've been drinking them much less than I used to.
Is this unusual?
I have heard people remark they can't tell the difference. My father for example.
