Water tastes good when you're physically active and need liquids. Oh, and it's free at restaurants. :3

I don't always drink things for pleasure.
Sometimes I do it for sustenance.
Society nowadays is completely absorbed in pleasure in comparison to even 50 years ago.
That's why obesity is bigger issue.

I remember Crystal Pepsi! I loved that stuff, though it was weird as hell when you drank it from a glass. You'd expect a different taste when you saw the clear liquid.
I don't remember Coke II, although I've never been one for Coke products, except Dr. Pepper.

Milk is not one of my favorite drinks, but I don't dislike it. Chocolate milk is actually good, specially.

Love milk..I drink entirely to much milk.
Water is boring and I have a hard time drinking enough of it. Flavo(u)rings help but ehh not worth it.

Both tbh. If I'm thirsty I'll drink something I like. If I've got the choice of something I enjoy vs something I don't enjoy, I'll take the former. if I have no choice then obviously I'll drink whatever I can find. This is a thread about preferences you see.

I use to never drink coke and thought it tasted horrible. Maybe it's the same with water. But I like the taste of water, as long as it's not mineral water... I hate that stuff.

I was in 6th grade when Crystal Pepsi was out. So whatever age that was.

Lol, that sounds so gross. I don't like drinks that have a mild sweetness to them, like flavored water. I abhor sweet iced tea. I think it's disgusting, but I was raised on unsweetened tea... and wheat bread. XD

It's time to bring this dumb old argument here.
Pepsi > Coke
Coke aims for the first taste and "Ooooooooh wow this is good lol" kind of appeal.
Pepsi aims for the relaxation aspect of drinking soda. The soda isn't as flavor blasted as it is something you can drink and fall in love with if you have the patience for it.
Additionally, the extreme first flavor of Coke's products goes really bad with a lot of meals, ESPECIALLY anything spicy. (buffalo wings / general tso's chicken) + coke = shitstorm.
You can't deny this. Just buy some Pepsi and Coke from the store one day, Mug and Barq's the next, etc. and try to ABX them and note the higher quality offered by Pepsi as, rather than marketed to casualfags, it is marketed to those who really enjoy the best in life.
