Poll: Flat pop

[Lerasai]

I cannot stand too much fizziness. I don't know if I'm just sensitive or what, but it feels like a million fiery needles that I definitely do not want in my mouth. Flat or just a bit de-fizzed, I really don't care as long as it's not super fizzy. Or root beer. Man, I hate root beer.

A lot of people are talking about other things going flat besides just normal cola, and don't think I've had any other soda go flat besides cola, but OT I hate it when it goes flat.

 

[Xpwn3ntial]

I don't like it, but I can't let a soda go to waste just because it's flat.

That would just be sick.

Fizzy it is.

 

[Vuliev]

If I have a 2-liter of coke/sprite that's gone flat, I'll gladly drink it, but I don't actively de-fizz my soda.

 

[Psychedelic Spartan]

Well, for me it really depends. My sodas usually only go flat if they are left open, but if they have been left in the fridge, unopened but I find out they're flat, I'll drink it, but if it's warm it goes down the drain.

 

[Sethzard]

I'm not a huge fan as it gets a bit too sweet.

 

[thespyisdead]

i am a fence sitter on this subject... i will drink it, but would rather not have to

 

[Barley Seed]

Depends on the pop. Flat Pepsi Max (cherry, citrus, original) tastes divine, but on the other hand flat Dr Pepper tastes like horse shit.

 

[Coffinshaker]

lol... pop...

but yeah, flat soda is pretty gross. sprite is tolerable and ginger ale isn't so bad, but the rest are just awful... except rootbeer... that's pretty much poison when it's warm and flat.

 

[Dutch 924]

I enjoy flat coke and lemonade. Lemonade in particular tastes like grapes when it's flat

 

[Techno Squidgy]

I find that most drinks are of reduced quality if they should be fizzy but have gone flat. The exception being Dr. Pepper. It's so deliciously good when flat.Just as good as when fizzy. The word pop describing a drink irritates me for some reason though. Must be an english thing.

 

[TehCookie]

Depends on the flavor. I cannot stand flat coke or rootbeer but lighter pops like mountain dew, orange or sprite still taste fine. I like my pop fizzy though, the only time I drink flat pop is if it's a old and I don't want to waste it.

 

[redisforever]

Depends on the drink. As long as it's cold, usually yes.

 

[Double A]

Anyone else like flat pop? I personally hate the fizz, IMO gets in the way of the sugary goodness and replaces it with an unpleasant burning sensation. I'll spend upwards of 10 minutes shaking a bottle and slowly releasing the fizz then drink it fizzy.

... you know you can just drop a spoonful of sugar in it and it'll decarbonate, right?

OT: No. It's disgusting. I've had flat Dr Pepper, it tastes like the syrup alone. I like it sweet, but not that sweet.

 

[TheScientificIssole]

I love that shit kay-razzy fizzy(I tell you!).

 

[Zen Toombs]

Depends on the soda. As has been stated, some taste better flat and others taste better fizzy.

Considering how horrific soda is for you, taste and caffeine content are basically the only reasonable reasons to drink soda anyway, so drink it as ye like!

I'll spend upwards of 10 minutes shaking a bottle and slowly releasing the fizz then drink it fizzy.

You let all the fizz out then you drink it fizzy? How does that work? Surely letting all the fizz out renders it impossible to be drank fizzy again.

 

[zehydra]

I prefer non-flat soda, but I will drink flat soda.

 

[putowtin]

let some of the fizz out of coke and Dr Pepper, leave it in the fridge till it's nice and cold, that's the best!

 

[Daffy F]

The carbonation is the best bit though... I couldn't answer your poll either, as I find it depends on what fizzy drink it is. For example, I prefer my Dr. Pepper to be only slightly carbonated, whilst any lemon/lime flavoured fizzy drink has to be almost fully carbonated for me to properly enjoy it.
