Ok, I've dropped my consumption of the bad stuff to 1 500ml bottle every second week or so. But lately it just doesn't taste good. Is it just me or did Coke change. Its not the same.
Used to be heaven now its uuurg..
 
No, red can...standard normal 12 spoons of sugar in a can coke, heaven. I don't know what it is, didn't taste nice.

I know the plastic bottle and the glass bottle have different sugars in them, glass coke always tastes better.

But as of late it just doesnt take that good anymore.
 
Not sure if it's just me, but I think the glass bottle coke tastes better than the ones in plastic bottle/tin cans.
 
Maybe your body has stopped getting used to the taste and does not enjoy it as much anymore :)

Definitely not different sugars..

But I agree that plastic/tin/coke all have different flavours - probably due to "contamination" from the material, with glass being the "cleanest"

Yhis was my first instinct. The 500ml buddy bottle probably has the worse tasting coke.

Yeah, it lends itself to a less chunky beverage. When you have a coke and a smile it's usually someone else's smile…

If you've been cutting down on your sugar intake generally then that would explain it. Your sensitivity to sweetness has increased

Maybe you shouldn't sip it from a spoon, it's not soup…

One uses cane sugar and the other uses high-fructose corn syrup.
 
My wife told me yesterday that the coke in the fridge tastes like pepsi...
