I think a lot of sweet things taste awful. But that doesn't mean I watch people drinking Coke and can't understand why they like it.

That's because taste is subjective. I only drink things I like. Do you really think people, other than teenagers experimenting, are drinking things they don't like?

And getting black out drunk, again young people aside, is not the aim.

I think you might be a bit sheltered. Not liking alcohol or drinking is fine and normal and should be encouraged for health reasons, but you've made some big assumptions about people.
