Because books.
It's been years since I drank regular Coke or Pepsi, but Pepsi always tasted crisper and lighter to me. And I've been used to artificial sweetener for so long that anything not diet tastes like the old Coke syrup you used to get at the drugstore.

I finally had to give up on soft drinks in the coke/pepsi spectrum. I not only had to give up non-artificial sweetener but caffein . If I can't get either sugar or caffein from coke/pepsi/DRpepper, I don't see the point of drinking it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sort of related to that, I was shocked at how satisfying an ice cream float still was, even when made with diet root beer and frozen yogurt. Totally hit the spot!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Because it tastes good? I mean, I wouldn't drink it if it didn't.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I prefer Coke to Pepsi, but will drink either. I drink Coke Zero regularly, but it does not taste like regular Coke. ("Tastes less like ass than Diet Coke" is not an effective marketing slogan, but that's my view on it.)

Coke and pepsi always tasted OK to me. What I liked about them was the lift. Sugar high plus caffeine boost. No high, there are tons of stuff that taste better to me.

The only soda I like is root beer. Now I want a root beer float.

The status is NOT quo.
Damn you, wee Kate! Now I want a root beer float.
