[@omgitsmercy23]

Energy drinks and bottled water both deserve their own tier lists

[@PalmelaHanderson]

Fun fact: the reason some restaurants don't serve coke or pepsi is that getting coke or pepsi typically comes with an exclusivity contract that can kind of suck. They'll be like "if you want to serve Coke, you have to also serve our new dragonfruit Fanta" or whatever. Or Pepsi will do the same thing with Mountain Dew. Some restaurants just prefer not to deal with it and get RC or just serve sodas in cans.

[@jesseperry9602]

As someone who was born and raised in the South, i can tell you that to me, RC Cola is not hipster soda in any way. Its the type of soda you find in those old ramshackle Trading Post type stores tucked back off the main road that always smells like hard candy and rotten wood. The best way to enjoy an RC Cola is with a Moon Pie and a sleeve of salted peanuts!

[@cristiannuques1718]

That's the point tho. Hipsters will turn RC cola into something that it is not.

[@koobs4549]

So basically you’re saying there is no way to enjoy it?😂 Sorry, I grew up in what I like to refer to as the Pseudo South or South Adjacent, (i.e. Florida) & both RC cola & Moon Pies are an abomination. When I went to stores like the one you’re describing, my go-to was always Peach Nehi & Mighty Mesquite Crunch Tator’s. Wish I could find it where I’m at now, if they still even make them, that shit slaps.

[@LilComedown]

What part of the south are you from? The RC, moon pie, and peanuts sound familiar but not quite lol I am from South Carolina (I've put peanuts in a glass bottle Coke and I don't like moon pies 😂)

The sticky video game comment just unlocked a core memory I didn't realize I had buried.

[@darrellmarcks6304]

Xcybergimpx in chat got it right, Mexican Coke is S tier. Still in glass bottles and made with cane sugar. It's always in the import or craft soda section of the supermarket. American Coke cold is B. Ice cold A. Room temp it's the worst. It gives your teeth "the squeak" and if you don't brush your teeth right afterwards you can feel the enamel dissolve. There's a reason we use it to finish stoned concrete work.

[@devenscience8894]

Mexican Cokes mostly use HFCS now, but the laws in Mexico allow them to still list it as "sugar." Mostly it tastes that much better because of the glass, which is the best container for sodas to be in, and not absorb any of the properties of the vessel. Plastic is the worst, as I'm sure you know.

[@darrellmarcks6304]

Mundet > jarritos > Mexican Coke > Sangria Senora

[@dancegregorydance6933]
