HuffPost

Soda or pop is a universal drink that comes in many shapes, sizes and even flavors. This sugary and carbonated beverage has found its way into every restaurant and household in America. Here are five of the most popular soft drinks, as voted by Americans.

1. Coca - Cola

Coca - Cola is the most popular soda in America. Last year, this beverage made 3.75 billion dollars in sales during only the second quarter. At this rate, Coca - Cola is growing extremely rapidly and will remain at the top of the beverage industry.

2. Diet Coke

Diet Coke comes in at second place. Being a subunit of Coca - Cola, Diet Coke quickly gained attention and recently passed Pepsi for second place. This beverage is perfect for those who don't want to ingest sugars and calories.

3. Pepsi - Cola

Coming in at third place is Pepsi- Cola. This arch rival of Coca -Cola was introduced 12 years after Coca - Cola, and has a net worth of an astounding 127 billion dollars. Pepsi still has a long way to go until they can catch up the Coca - Cola.

4. Mountain Dew


Securing the fourth place spot is Mountain Dew. This misty and sugary drink is a subunit to Pepsico. Americans love the Lemon-Lime flavor that every Mountain Dew contains. Started in 1948, Mountain Dew will continue to be an American favorite.

5. Dr. Pepper

In fifth place is Dr. Pepper. This soda was introduced in 1885 and has been am American favorite ever since. With its unusual taste, a heap of sugar and carbonated base, Dr. Pepper is sure to continue to stay a fan favorite.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
