have a coke and a smile

Happy Birthday to me.  I took the day off today to just laze around when the doorbell rang and this arrived.

Now those of you that know me know I love Pepsi.  but I have some really special friends that are coke drinkers and we always go back and forth with the coke and Pepsi war in a very friendly playful way.  But this well this takes the cake I laughed so hard the delivery driver for sure thought i was crazy.  but on a rainy day when you are feeling old you can always count on a good friend to lift your spirits.

so for today the old coke saying "have a coke and a smile" has a special place in this Pepsi house.

pepsi vs coke

the age old fight. Now most of my friends are coke drinks (the horror) and I am a Pepsi drink (the finer things in life is how my husband thinks of it) so since we were meeting up for a brief visit while I was in Florida we thought we would have an international challenge.

We brought a bottle of Pepsi and coke from Washington state, Canada and Alabama. And with one of us only pouring into glasses we tested each.


Conclusion: side by side we couldn't tell the difference really. We did conclude that coke has more canonization and that Canada coke and Pepsi are way sweeter then the others. We also thought there were probably differences in the taste in cans and fountain drinks as well.

It was great fun for an evening of laughs.
