I'm hoping the Pepsi contract expired and went back to Coke.

LOTS of cruiser discussions. 

[Lee Cruiser]

Personally, I prefer Pepsi, but it is not a huge deal either way for me.  I may drink one a day on a cruise. I don't like the taste of canned Coke, but I can get something else, so I'm good with either.  I just want to cruise again!

As long as DP is still an option.....

Agree. And if they start offering the new DP Zero, hubs and I will be two very happy cruisers!!

On the rare occasion that I drink pop, I choose coke over pepsi (unless it's pepsi with real sugar).

 

That said, my wife is stoked about having mountain dew available.  Happy wife = happy life, so I hope they stick with pepsi 🙂

No one knows so keep it cordial and on topic please. Last time this got crazy and it's all speculation at this point in the soda debate.. Thanks

[asalligo]

I would so hope that they go back to Coke!

[cruisingguy007]

This is quite literally the last thing I'm worried about. The luxury of soda choice wouldn't even crack the top 100 concerns at this point. I'd be perfectly happy and thankful with generic soda at this point if I could cruise. First world problems.

Thanks for the reminder of another reason not to sail on Carnival Cruise Line.

 

At least some competitors offer Coca Cola products.

It's been so long since Carnival cruised...I wonder how many crew members may have had babies, gotten other jobs or not coming back for whatever reason?

[marshhawk]

it's the least of my worries...soda, but I like Pepsi better.  Well actually I like root beer best, add vanilla ice-cream, and i am one happy cruiser....😸

I think it's different to different taste buds.  To me, pepsi is more fizzy but coke is more syrupy.  For that reason I prefer pepsi.  But others say pepsi is sweeter, I just don't taste that.

[TNcruising02]

I don't drink much soda, but I prefer coke over pepsi.  I prefer plastic straws over paper or sugar.  I prefer butter pats over butter from a crock.  Hmm.  What else have I not thought about in over a year?  Oh yeah, I don't need a lanyard for my platinum gift.  I do wear lanyards. 

 

Thanks for this thread.  Sometimes it helps to think about trivial things and have a good laugh over how people used to get so heated about them.

...and it'll be even longer before Carnival cruises again...

...this is just an item that tips the scale in a different favor for me.

Sure you didn't mean different flavor? 😉

Motor oil vs nectar of the gods

 

In all seriousness, as much as I love Coke, I don't drink much of it due to the high sugar. I'm quite ok with just bringing a handful of cans on board if I really want one. 

[a4ofspades]

Super excited that we'll be cruising again soon. For the cherry on top, I would love for them to leave Pepsi behind and go back to Coke. 😬

[firefly333]

Coke too sweet to me, we are pepsi fans. Lol

 

I'll drink coke if that's my only choice and I want a soda.

[cellfree]

Many of us do prefer Coke. We bring ours onboard and at some ports buy it if we can find a grocery store.

For those who don't know the difference between Pepsi and Coke, take a can of Coke, open it, add five tablespoons of sugar and leave it sitting out all night. That's what Pepsi tastes like. Carnival needs to go back to Coke.

Ewwwwww. I can say the same thing about Coke.🤢

[solocruzin]

@opshannon is correct. Pepsi has 41 grams of sugar per can, Coke has 33 grams of sugar per can. Much more sugar in Pepsi.
