As we know there are two large beverage maker in the USA--coca cola and pepsi cola which supply the drinks for Mcdonald's and KFC separately. So which brand cola do you usually drink?
I myself usually choose the pepsi, as I prefer the KFC to Mcdonald's. And I think the tasting of the pepsi cola is more milder than the coca cola which contains more carbon dioxide in my opinion.

hi martylau,
i dont drink any cola bcoz any soft drink(soda),whether it is Coke or Pepsi or some other soft drink is the most acidic beverage you can buy, with a pH of about 2.5, about the same as vinegar.Acid oxidizes whatever it comes in contact with.If you put soda or vinegar on metal, it will rust it quickly-so you can imagine the devastating effect it can have inside our body.
Soft drinks also contain high levels of phosphorous,which leaches out calcium from your bones.Thus increased soft drink consumption is a major factor that contributes to osteoporosis.Tooth loss, periodontal disease, and gingivitis can be problems, especially with a high phosphorus intake, particularly from soft drinks.
Besides weak bones, weakened immune system and dissolving teeth,consumption of soft drinks also leads to weight gain,obesity and resulting diseases and disorders.
Diet sodas are no better-Aspartame,the sweetener that is used,can cause increased levels of Methanol in our body leading to an increased risk of Cancer.

I never prefer taking colas and hence I neither choose Pepsi nor Coke. I prefer taking water always and I often take Fresh Juices whenever I feel so. Rrely I take colas may be once or twice in a year or so. I never prefer taking colas because of certain things like the Carbon di oxide content degrades your body a great extent. It is not good to add carbon di oxide in your body by artificial means and it leads to degradation or weaking of bones and calcium contents in the body. Hence it is highly preferable to take water instead of colas. Taking colas is one kind of addictions.
