Default Favorite pop/soda/coke

As I sit here and crack open a pop/soda/coke this afternoon, I realized that I am out of my favorite flavor. So...I thought I'd ask you about yours. I figure we can send out results into the Pepsi Taste Challenge thingy and let them know what actuaries prefer.

(Diet pop is included in regular pop selections.)

Wait, you drink something other than Alcohol or are you just referring to what you mix your drinks with?

If it doesn't have caffeine, why bother?

well, I prefer Diet Coke, but if I'm going to splurge on the calories, it's Regular Pepsi.

Then again, I'm kinda fond of Fresca.

Yet again, I don't fit the categories of the poll (well, okay, I guess I'm "other"...whatever!)

As soon as they start making diet pop/soda/coke with Splenda instead of that Nutra Sweet crap, I'll start drinking diet pop. Until then, please pass me the Mountain Dew.

Caffeine-free diet mountain dew - same ickey flavor with Nutrasweet aftertaste, but none of the benefits of the sugar rush or the caffeine rush.

Yuck.
