We had our Pepsi Challenge – a blind taste test using Mexican Coca-Cola and Mexican Pepsi, both sans corn syrup and loaded with real sugar.
There’s no doubt – we’re a Coca-Cola family. All three of us who took the challenge – me, my son (not a soda drinker at all) and my husband picked Coke as our clear favorite.
I was a little surprised because I actually thought I’d like the Pepsi better.
The other striking thing for me is how both colas aren’t nearly as sweet as the Coke and Pepsi I can get out of the vending machine and fast food soda fountains.
No doubt our taste buds would be open to a little break from the super syrupy sweetness in the prepared, prepackaged foods we still eat.
