    Diet Coke vs Regular Coke, regular Coke wins! Except I mostly drink Diet cause I fear regular coke will just push my ole pancreas over the edge and parts inside me would begin to implode.

    Remember Vanilla Coke lads? Wonder whatever happened to that, that was the nicest Coke ever.

    I'm fairly sure diet coke is actually worse for you in that aspect, same with every "diet" fizzy drink!

    Never really liked vanilla coke all that much, but lemon twist one was f'awesome.

    Connacht Gold Butter is the only butter worth talking about - the rest of them just taste like crap!

    Hate when you open a new one from the fridge though, and it's hard and difficult to spread over the bread :o

    When I was a kid it was still North Connacht Farmers.

    Low Low ftw! Lol, a thread about coke turns into milk and butter :P

    Finches anything rocks, specially rockshandy, got a huuuge bottle in Dunnes for €1.50 a while ago :D

    Ooh, Duffy I remember NCF aswel! They had that symbol on their milk and stuff, I can still picture it!

    I drink it very seldom and we never have it in the house. It makes me feel bloated so i try to stay away.
    I would mainly use it for rum & coke.

    That's delicious as well! An excellent mixer too!

    Is there a reason that Coke tastes better from a can - or is it just my imagination? It's possibly because cans keep colder easier, and colder Coke is more refreshing... or something :o

    Dunnes ftw - look at these €2 offers :P
    http://www.dunnesstores.ie/page.php?pid=372

    Don't ask why it says "Please Drink Sensibly" at the bottom of the page as there's no alcohol on offer - unless they're referring to the milk :P

    Its cos when you're a poor student all you buy is stuff with the bright yellow price labels which means SALES!!! Dunnes can have really really good reductions on things which also happen to be everything I like :cool:

    I always figured it was something to do with being stored in plastic for long periods of time... maybe it's both of those!

    The order is like such:

    Plastic bottle < Can < Glass bottle

    Ew :P I hate coke, I think its the most horrible tasting drink I've ever had. I've tried to use it as a mixer but I just get sick of the taste of coke, not even the taste of the alcohol!

    Sprite Zero ftw ;)

    sprite make coke just so you know!

    I don’t actually drink much coke at all. Prefer Pepsi to coke but only when it’s in an ice cold can. I drink 7up/Sprite or orange juice mostly. I always drink milk with my dinner. Can’t imagine drinking anything else with it tbh.

    Lads what the hell is Tanora? I've never heard of it. :confused:

    NCF cartons were blue and red instead of green and yellow and they had a recycling notice on the side.

    considering I go through about 2-3L of coke every day :o
    Look at your teeth in a mirror.

    Now wave them goodbye.

    They only sell it in Cork I think, it's tangerine flavour. Which sounds odd and unnecessary but it's fookin delish


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,486 ✭✭✭highlydebased


    I generally drink 3-4 cans of Pepsi Max/Diet Coke daily :/:(
