And you know what's really frightening? If you drink enough of it, you begin to like it

Returning to an occasional coke out of necessity after swapping to other sodas is a bizarre experience. It really has a strange taste. Not even necessarily bad, but strange. But if you return to it for a few weeks, you stop noticing it.

Bought an oreo coke out of morbid curiosity today. I love trying weird shit like that. 10/10 would try it once and never again, again.

Funnily enough I've tried a Coke Oreo the other day and it's the most disgusting, vile shit I've ever had the misfortune of tasting before. Tastes like flat coke that's being left in the open for a week. Why, oh WHY would someone think that's a good idea? Who's the executive that greenlit this shit?!

[–] slackassassin@sh.itjust.works 3 points 11 months ago

I dunno man. And you're not wrong. Mine probably would have been better if it wasn't sugar-free. That dominated the oreo flavor.

But I'll try any of that weird shit. I love the wacky chips and whatnot. Once.

Where is on the scale of “tastes exactly like oreos” to “tastes like monkey butts but the more sips I take the more I want it”?

[–] slackassassin@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 year ago

It tasted like an oreo you got out of a monkey butt, so def wanted more.

[–] Pulptastic@midwest.social 5 points 11 months ago

It tastes exactly like those coke Oreos.

[–] PlantJam@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

It tastes like vanilla coke, but different. I described it as greasy vanilla, but creamy might be a nicer way to put it. I didn't notice any chocolate flavor.

So you’re saying that doing too much coke can result in the loss of taste?

Just like The Federation.

[–] wieson@feddit.org 5 points 11 months ago

I didn't drink it for a while and after that it tasted disgusting to me. And I used it as an opportunity to drink healthier from then on.

"you can't even taste the cocaine"

[–] niktemadur@lemmy.world 22 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

Mabe it's me, but I don't see disgust like I've previously read about in the "history" between La France et Coca-Cola, I see a curious surprise with a mild shock of the utterly unexpected.
Imagine the flavor of Coca-Cola being that alien in your life.

I guess that you must be French then, because to me, as a Scandinavian, that man looks disgusted. Like he's about to ask why he was handed battery acid for a refreshment.

[–] P4ulin_Kbana@lemmy.eco.br 20 points 1 year ago

That's a normal reaction. I like it.

[–] lseif@sopuli.xyz 20 points 11 months ago (1 children)

if i made a mistake with the french spelling, it is because i have no respect for that language

[–] Beacon@fedia.io 20 points 1 year ago

That's the correct reaction

Doesn’t your government require that you make this comment in French?

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

He said it with a very thick French accent ... and he was smoking a cigarette and drinking a beer that he bought from the depanneur .... and doing it doggy style while watching the hockey game ... when they typed this out.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

But is that enough for the Office québécois de la langue française?

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I hope you didn’t just make this, but had it on your phone for some fucking reason already.

I live in northern Ontario and I have lots of French Canadian family and friends .... we are required by law to maintain this image on all our systems here.

[–] dephyre@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This doesn't taste like cocaine!

Well, that one might have

Doesn't taste like anything to me

[–] someguy3@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If that's his first carbonated beverage, I can understand.
