I honestly think people who prefer one over the other would not be able to tell them apart in a blind test.
Many people don't have a good pallet, but it's pretty easy to tell the difference via the texture. Pepsi is a bit more syrupy, and sweeter, whereas coke is a more bitter-sweet taste. Both are absolutely carb bombs, but as soon as you spend just a little time comparing the tastes of the two, you can pick out their distinct flavor notes easily. I'm only comparing the shitty HFCS beverages in America which both coke and pepsi use. Cane Sugar Pepsi, vs Cane Sugar Coke I'm not so sure about. I do prefer Can Sugar Coke (i.e. mexican coke) over HFCS. I haven't had a cane sugar pepsi in years.
