Do you like carbonated drinks?

Post Reply New Topic

I don't necessarily have a problem with carbonated drinks, and I do enjoy them sometimes, but lately I've been finding that I like non-carbonated beverages somewhat more. It's hard to find ones that I actually like drinking though, most are fairly bland, but the ones that are good are better than carbonated stuff IMO.

It caused hiccups and sometimes would come out my nose when I was a child. As an adult I drink it more slowly and tend to let it go flat or put allot of ice cubes in it to dilute it. Even thou it causes problems when I drink it, I still want it. Sprite is my favorite.

I hate soda and coffee. dont like tea much, either. hate pepsi and seven up, ugh.

I never had much of a problem with them. I remember as a kid, my brother and I would sometimes try to see who could hold a carbonated drink under their tongue the longest (it burns, A LOT). I kind of like the burning actually. I also like extremely spicy food.

I'm fine with carbonated drinks but was just thinking of making an autistic character in my book dislike carbonation. Actually I rarely drink ginger ale because the combination or bubbles and ginger flavor is a bit over powering.

I'm fine with carbonation & like soda

Are you kidding me? I drink carbonated stuff practically all the time unless it's diet which always tastes flat to me. I find it to be very calming almost like a de-stresser. But that's just soda. Monster on the other hand has me bouncing off the walls after 2 cans whenever I have a creative writing period. Helps keep my brain alert and come up with ideas for my stories.

I usually do in random occasions. I could even take a liter of (either pepsi or coca cola) alone. Sometimes more than a liter for an entire night/day of me sitting here by the computer. (Yes, that is unhealthy)

Unless it's cold, I can take it.

Mostly no.

I stay away from carbonated drinks aside from the occasional sparkling water.

Yes, but only a few selected brands: Pepsi, Coke (to an extent), 7-Up, Sprite. HATE Dr. Pepper taste, always have and never will have it again. Hate "orange" sodas like Fanta. #1 is Pepsi for me, I like the taste of it more than Coca-Cola as it's cold, but not completely sweet like Coca-Cola. I make sure to ONLY have 1 12-oz can of some soft drink a day. I don't drink down a 1-liter Pepsi in 1 day...I go 12-16 oz at a time.
Absolutely hate diet sodas as they are even worse than regular sodas.
Funny story - I used to have caffeine-free Pepsi (non-diet) for years, from elementary to probably 7th grade. If I had regular Pepsi I would get too hyperactive due to the caffeine. Caffeine-free tasted exactly the same as regular Pepsi, but I had no ADHD-like-symptoms to deal with. Jumping up and down everywhere, etc. After about 7th or 8th grade, normal Pepsi was just fine.
