Coca Cola Identification Challenge

As a standard beverage accompanying the ultimate cheeseburger, cola in one brand or type is bound to figure highly on most people's choices.

However, based on a chat we had in the office recently, a quick diversion from my quest presented itself.  Can you taste the difference between the more main products of cola by Coca-cola?

Cheeseburger

  • Coca-cola
  • Diet Coke
  • Coke zero
  • Coke Life
Someone in the office said they could, and furthermore state which each was.  I think the average person can detect a difference in taste, but not identify which specific product it is.

So I decided to test this and see if anyone could taste which Coca-cola product they were given - if the packaging was hidden from them.

Cheeseburger

I'll publish the results later today, but the set up will be multiple individuals, a blind taste of all at room temperature* and each person to identify which is which.

Any one have any thoughts?  I'm quite intrigued to find out the results.


*the individual who made the claim that they could taste the difference insisted that they need to be room temperature.
