Actually, Coca Cola tastes differently according to the region you’re living in... They tweak the recipe based on country

Just inside of Europe the taste difference is super obvious. E.g. it's clearly sweeter in Sweden than Germany. That could just be a difference in carbonation though.
Also, for the zero calorie drinks the sweeteners used vary.

A can of coke is the same everywhere. Fountain cola varies wildly since restaurants use different levels of carbonation, syrup and freshness. McDonalds fountain coke is the best.

Between countries, a can of Coca Cola varies[1], particularly in the amount of sugar[2], as well as the type (HFCS in the US, cane or beet sugar in most other places).

I had an interesting conversation the with an oyster farmer about the variability in taste geographically in the northeast.
And to me, honey is just honey. But apparently some folks can discern by taste which flower pollens comprise a batch.
But then you drink a Coca Cola, which tastes exactly the same no matter where or when. It’s like it’s more of a chemistry experiment than a food.
