And these people drink enough to know... These are PRECISELY the people who know the LEAST. The last person whose opinion I'd trust on the taste of Pepsi (or whether something ELSE tastes like Pepsi) is a die-hard (Old) Coke drinker! For those of you who drink Coke, HOW DO YOU DEFINE "TASTES LIKE PEPSI"? HOW DO YOU *KNOW*, IF YOU DON'T DRINK IT? Have any of you actually tasted the two (Pepsi and new Coke) side-by-side, blindly? And you REALLY don't detect a difference? Get your taste bud differentiation circuits checked! New and Old Coke MAY be as far apart as Old Coke and Pepsi, but that doesn't mean Pepsi=New Coke! And as for those who say "virtually no one on the net likes the New Coke, because of the overwhelming number of anti- articles", think about this: Why would anyone who LIKES the New Coke BOTHER to write to complain?
