I suspect tho you think advertising works differently than it does. That people see something then go out and buy it because they saw it, herp derp, coke, I want coke now. But thats not really what they are after, they just want to leave an impression on you so when you are out buying soda because you want soda (not because you saw a soda commercial) you are more likely to select coke because you've been influenced by their advertising. But I'm sure a smart guy like you thinks it's because you can actually taste the difference and just prefer it to the other one.
lol, I sure as hell don't consume most of the mass consumer trash. I'm not anymore less or more likely to drink coke. If I drink a soda, it's going to be very selective in what I choose because I don't drink soda often, and I actually pick my preferences off taste. But sure, publish some stupid scientific "study" which are frequently cherry-picked to give results on how they want them to come out. As in, it's unlikely anyone really spent money on a "scientific" study based on marketing since it's not really a scientific topic. Research is going to be quite limited since marketing isn't a scientific field by nature. (Not saying it can't be, but, for example, nutrition is quite scientific and the actual knowledge on it is still expanding.)
And yes, I do taste the difference. If you honestly can't taste the difference between something like Coke and Pepsi, that's pretty incredible. Also, if I had to drink a **** macrobrew, I'd choose Coors Light. Miller Light is similar, but Bud Light is by far the worst as it is too sweet because of the rice.
Not everyone is a obese American who can't taste the difference, eats a **** ton of garbage food, and can't handle spicy food. It's actually pretty stupid to have this view of everyone and never understand why people are like "OMG YOU CAN'T TASTE THE DIFFERENCE STOP LYING LOL"
