Which kind of soda do you prefer and why? I prefer Diet Cola because it just flat out tastes better. Its crisper and more refreshing than the goop that is regular cola.

soft drink - The term soft drink originally applied to carbonated drinks and non-carbonated drinks made from concentrates, although it now commonly refers to almost any cold drink that does not contain alcohol.
When I drink soda I drink diet, I'm dibetic so all the others taste far too sweet for me. But mostly I like to stick with Just plain water with lots of ice.

Diet, all the way. Regular cola just gives me a headache if I drink it, I can't cope with the amount of caffeine and sugar in it! Diet cola definitely tastes better too, a lot more fizzy and it isn't thick and syrupy, like regular cola can be.

i prefer diet coke to regular coke. I use to drink the aweful Tab when it was popular. At that time I could not drink a diet coke, because it was twice as sweet as tab. Tab had saccharine and diet coke had a different sweetner. Well they stopped making Tab in my area so I had to switch to diet coke. There was a time I drank regular coke, but now it leaves a bad taste in my mouth. I LOVE diet coke.

I have been drinking diet pop for so long that I can't stand the taste of regular pop. A regular Pepsi tastes like you're drinking pure sugary syrup! My favorite is Diet Pepsi, which is always what I get when given a choice.

I prefer Dr.Pepper, not diet though it taste so much different to me. I don't care for Diet Coke either I don't know maybe it's the sweetner they put in there. I just don't like diet.

In Australian we can buy Diet Coke with Lime and this has become my favourite over regular Coke. To me it is not as sweet and a bit cleaner on the taste. Of course my wife keeps telling me that I shouldn't be drinking any of it!

I drink diet, though I had to limit certain kinds because aspartame and splenda gives me headaches if I drink too much.

I drink diet soda almost exclusively. When I have regular soda it tastes incredibly sweet and syrupy to me; it's almost like drinking Coke syrup all by itself.
