Both.

Usually blue flavor for both as well.

I don't really like either ... Give me life/vitamin water!

But sure, if I had to pick, Gatorade.

This, but I voted for Gatorade.

I'm mostly a Monster girl, though.

I've only had Gatorade, so I'm selecting Gatorade.

Also, Monster/Sobe are completely different types of drinks. Gatorade/Powerade are basically just water, some coloring, salts, sugars and maybe some other minerals and stuff in the more fancy selections. Those others are energy drinks which are more to release energy quite a bit more than necessary. I don't really like the feeling very much.

I drink both, depending on which one is on sale at the local variety store.

Granted, I remember growing up with Gatorade, so it has more of a soft spot in my heart.

Blue is really the best and I've always gone Gatorade but lately it feels like their formula has changed and it's not as awesome as it used to be.

Powerade has HFCS in it and has higher sugar, so Gatorade for me.

Doesn't Gatorade also use HFCS? Or so I had thought...

Whichever one's on sale, but I like the Powerade Zero better

Just double checked. You're right. I thought I read somewhere that gatorade didn't, but every source I'm finding now says that they both do. Oh well, I don't really drink either anyway.

The myth that high fructose corn syrup is more unhealthy than sugar or will give you cancer or whatever is all pretty much crap. It's more or less the same stuff, just a somewhat different molecule, but they have the same effect. Just high fructose corn syrup is a cheaper, inferior product that doesn't taste as good but increases profits.

in my opinion, Powerade tastes kinda watered down, and Gatorade has much more of a flavor to their drinks, so Gatorade for me

Yeah, Powerade always tasted a little weaker/more watery than Gatorade, to me. That it's also somewhat cheaper in this area probably doesn't help, either, in that regard. I'll drink either, but if I have a choice (between the two), I'll get the Gatorade.

Sobe seems rather scarce, here, these days, along with Snapple. And I'm afraid to try the multiple Vitamin Water clones.

Gatorade for sure. Powerade is pretty much sugar and flavour, absolutely no good for drinking during sports. Gatorade however is more protein and electrolytes, which is necessary to keep up my energy.
