Coca Cola

Coca-Cola
The global drink

The task my class took on was to find out if students around
the world have the same reaction to Coke that we have
here in New Hampshire. They wondered if students just
drank Coke because everyone else did or if they really liked
the taste. We asked students from the learning circles
questions about their drinking habits as it pertained to soft
drinks. We received responses we were expecting and also
answers that amazed us. The thing we were most
surprised about was that of the students we surveyed, the
ones that were most dissimilar to us were from Kansas in
the U.S. The students there drank a lot of drinks we here in
New England had never heard of.
Why do students drink Coke?
• The bottom line for the
students surveyed was
they liked the taste.
Peer pressure did not
seem to have a
significant influence on
the decision of what
soda to drink. Students
also felt strongly about
they decision to drink
Coke Versus Pepsi.
There really does
appear to be a cola war.
