Question

Mitzi and her husband went out for a nice dinner, where Mitzi ordered a Diet Coke with her meal. When her drink was served, she took one sip and made a disgusted face. "That's not Diet Coke," she said with an irritated look. "That's a Diet Pepsi." Mitzi's ability to distinguish one soda from another demonstrates __________.

Answer 1
