Think of it like the cola wars. The two leaders don't care if you're buying Coke or Pepsi as long as a third competitor is being kept down.

Pepsi used to be better briefly in the 80's when they had a cool logo and it came in short glass bottles.

I grew up on Pepsi because my dad always drank it. I have a hard time drinking it now because after drinking Coke for awhile Pepsi seems way too sweet now. I don't know if the recipe changed in the last decade but it was noticeable when I switched back to Pepsi and found that I no longer liked it.

Pepsi always was sweeter so no, nothing's changed.

Yea, it seems more syrupy than Coke. Coke is way more refreshing.

It was always too sweet. I feel like it leaves a coating on my teeth if I drink it. Never figured out why that was.

The infamous New Coke was made sweeter because Pepsi had taken such a large share. Costly mistake.

PepsiCo (PEP), because they own a gazillion other food and beverage brands besides Pepsi cola, is a great stock though. Buy, DRIP, hold for many years.

Coke is only better when it comes in the glass bottles, Mexi-Coke.

Otherwise, Pepsi and their 50000 other products, all blow Coke out of the water.

Regular yes, diet no. Diet Coke tastes horrible (sorry Mr. President), Pepsi Zero is great. Plus Pepsi Zero competes with energy drinks more so than with other sodas in that it it has 69mg caffeine compared to 34-36mg in most other sodas.
