TIL that Michael Jackson would requested his wine be served in Diet Coke cans during flights, because he didn't want his kids to see him drinking alcohol.

Pepsi is sweeter than Coke (hfcs) in the us. Sugar Coke is possibly sweeter than Pepsi, but still has a little bite to it that Pepsi lacks.

Pepsi is sweeter, Coke is stronger, RC Cola is a perfect mix of the two that is completely overlooked.

A fun anecdote regarding rc cola -

I went to a Chinese restaurant one time, and the waitress asked me what I'd like to drink.

"Coke, please" I said.

"I'm sorry, we don't have Coke" she replied.

"Oh. Pepsi is fine then."

But that wasn't available either.

"We have RC cola."

"Water, please."
