Do multi-pack cans/ 2-litre twin-pack bottles of coca cola....

A can of coke is nice but Pepsi is way feckin nicer.

Most other countries don't use real sugar in their soft drinks, and use corn syrup or sweeteners instead, which is why Irish/UK Coke usually tastes better. People go crazy in the US looking for Coke with real sugar, which I believe is sold in Mexico, and in some shops in the USA during passover because the regular US stuff isn't kosher.

I think here is the country that uses real orange in Fanta Orange, presumably as it competes with Club Orange. Fanta abroad always looks lighter and tastes weaker.

Of course it's nicer, it has to compete with Orangina.


When we went on holidays to Spain, my parents would bring back a car load of Spanish wine, and I'd get a crate of Orangina.

Haven't had it since I was a young 'n though.

Nope, but have no gripes with people cunning enough to have gotten in there when times were good. Hate c'unts that got into the public sector back in the old days though, by virtue of nepotism.

Always thought that about the cans, never voiced my opinion though for fear of men in white coats calling to my door.

However, the order of preference:

Glass bottle
Can
Plastic bottle

Definitely isn't in anyone's head. Its all down to how its packaged. Same with anything, the aluminium affects the taste, etc

OP I think it might be mostly in your head.

Something to try at home:
Take the wrapper off a 500ml bottle of coke you buy in the shop. Without the wrapper it tastes different. This is clearly all in your head

Just saw the thread o.p and i was going to mention this last week on here. I never buy multi pack cans of Pepsi but at the moment im living out in the bush in oz so brought 2x24 packs of pepsi, i usually only but the bottles. Anyway when i went to drink them they were without a doubt a lot weaker than the bottles:(.
