the taste of coke? or (making flavours people cant describe)

[Spygon]

Right today i was at my mates house drinking a bottle of coke and his 12 year old cousin was watching TV with us.Right let me give you the back story of my mates cousin he is from a very strict family that wont let him drink any fizzy drinks or eat highly sugared sweets due to them being bad for his health and teeth.

So anyway today he turned to me and asked me what coke tastes like?.I thought about it for a second and i could not come up with an answer i really cant think what the taste of coke actually is.

So i wondering if anybody can describe the taste of coke or have any other products that they cant describe the taste.

It tastes like killlll your parentssssssss.

 

[Berethond]

It tastes like killlll your parentssssssss.

It tastes like BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD KHORNE.

Coca-Cola is flavored in part by the coca plant from South America. The same plant that cocaine is derived from. There are also other flavors like nutmeg I believe.

You're right you know, it actually is impossible to describe the taste of coke.

 

[Valate_v1legacy]

It tastes like killlll your parentssssssss.

It tastes like BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD KHORNE.

I thought it was THE BLOOD GOD KHARNE!

 

[Raven's Nest]

Coca Cola tastes like Pepsi, but better

 

[Space Spoons]

Round. That's all that came to mind, honestly. It tastes round.

It's difficult to describe the taste of anything. Seriously, i'm having trouble with something relatively simple: an apple...

NO! It is ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNO-TOAD!

I would say an apple has a sour citrus taste to it

 

[Shruikine]

It tastes weird. I don't really like it, but I drink it... Why?

Also, Khorne is the God of Blood and Destruction in Warhammer 40,000.

Technically, if the flavor were not unique it'd probably be replicated enough to put the hurt on their secret formula, kinda like the 11 herbs and spices the Col. uses to make tasty chicken tastier. People have been trying to figure these secrets out for years.

I've been a coke drinker for longer than some folks in these boards have been alive, and for the life of e I'm just as puzzled as the rest of you.

That's because coke is made from demon magic and as is such, does not correlate to any of our other earthly mortal tastes.

Seriously, though, I taste many different things in coke, and what's more surprising to me is that it tastes different at different temperatures. Refrigerated, it tastes syrupy, at room temperature, of nutmeg and oranges... Does anyone else get this or am I just crazy?

 

[Guitarmasterx7]

you mislead me. I thought you where talking about a different coke. I shall leave now.

Sorted. Ten minutes of lengthy thought and consideration over... =P

At a certain point, you can no longer describe or simplify something.

What is blue?
A color.
What does blue look like?
Purple, but with less red in it.
Describe blue.
It's a color.
But describe blue.

And that's pretty much where it ends.

You can compare something to something else if you can find a base for comparison, (i.e. blue and purple, above,) but words can only do so much.

isnt blue a cold watery colour of am i reading too much into it.

Actually, almost all sodas are all but impossible to describe, other than the ones with fruit flavors (Sunkist, Grape etc.)
