I've never understood this sentiment since their flavors are so different at least to me lol. I guess Coke and Pepsi are closer to each other than they are to Dr Pepper but it's still easy to distinguish between them.

and yet i don't think i could tell them apart either, unless maybe i were drinking both together and making a point to identify the differences in taste lol

i don't think i've ever even had coke and pepsi available to me at once to test this, but that might be a fun experiment

i guess if i HAD to pick one it'd be coke, but that feels like a mostly arbitrary choice, maybe i just like the color of the coke can more lol

but if i were to request coke and be served pepsi i wouldn't even notice

technically anything that isn't alcoholic (a "hard" drink) is a soft drink, excluding pure water, milk solutions and infusions like coffee/tea

https://www.britannica.com/topic/soft-drink

but it's often used as a synonym for 'carbonated beverage', i guess because (north) america is a soda society so what other drinks could there be aside from soda and beer lol

oh, i wasn't questioning the nutritional sensibility of your choices, i was more questioning your palate lol

i love iced tea too but i don't really like nestea or especially brisk because in addition to being only faintly lemon tea flavored, it also somehow stings all the way down

brisk in particular reminds me of this:

(https://i.imgur.com/wkpjlb4.png)

which i don't know if you have in canada but is notorious for being this extremely cheap artificial juice that's so cloyingly sweet that it burns lol

in terms of healthiness, i would assume that mass produced iced tea is at least a little better than soda if only because it doesn't contain phosphoric acid, but idklol

i also imagine iced tea is at least slightly less sugary

the carbonation isn't really what makes soder a problem though, unless it's specifically the bubbles that you happen to be sensitive to

it's probably the combination of phosphoric acid and high sugar content that damages teeth and weakens bones and elevates risk for the beetus

Quote from: Thyme on October 16, 2018, 06:03:00 AMwait nvm gatorade has recently been added to that list


try pickle juice next y/n

In all seriousness though, now that you've been drinking it for a while, how much would you say it's eased those long walks? O_0

Post by: Thyme on October 16, 2018, 02:51:38 PM
oh lol, idk it doesn't burn for me
at least not as much as... idk, sunny d befuddlement

and idk about the gatorade, i feel it might have helped, but on my last two long walks heat wasn't as much of a factor and i definitely didn't need to hydrate as much so

yeah, brisk causes a sunny d-type burn for me, coupled with the fact that the drink beneath the burn just isn't very good lol, but that's just my opinion

Is Arizona available in Canada? befuddlement

that's probably my favorite of the mass produced iced """teas"""

snapple iced tea is pretty okay too, certainly better than brisk or nestea but not as good as arizona imolol

*casually shills for home-grown new york products*

that's actually perfectly consistent with the way electrolytes work lol

as the body consumes its electrolyte supply the waste is excreted via sweat (and urine, hence why they're salty), and if you're sweating less due to the cooler weather that would reduce the rate of electrolyte loss (and, naturally, dehydration)

Definitely less often than Coke but I'll see it paired with Coke and Sprite at the bottom of a convenience store cooler from time to time

t Americans seem to have a strong preference for Coke if they strongly prefer one over the other

Especially in the south for some reason despite Pepsi also being from the south

For the record, the packaging material only makes a difference because it affects what you're tasting when you put your lips on it. It's all the same shit. Pour it in a glass if you don't believe me.

according to the interwebs the packaging can affect the taste enough to make a difference.

The linings used in plastic and aluminum cans can leach into the drink or absorb soluble ingredients from the drink itself and create a subtle taste difference. Glass doesn't react much with the drink so is technically the most authentic

Soft drinks pour differently from glass/plastic/can openings, creating variations in carbonation when meeting your tongue.

Glass bottles remain colder longer (also take longer to cool) versus plastic or cans

If you drink from a plastic bottle, the opening and closing of the cap will affect carbonation

Also plastic bottles are more CO2 permeable; losing up to 15% of their carbonation in an experiment when stored, unopened, in direct sunlight for 12 weeks

you're right about the beer, but for some reason the taste of soda out of a can is really bad to me

this is definitely false for the reasons ypr enumerated above, but in any case (lol) the difference in taste from one material to the other is pretty negligible to me
