Diet Drinks

Post by Bob Roberts »

My wife and I love Diet drinks made by Coke. When the store runs their 12 packs on sale, we buy all we can to stock up. A new Target opened this week in Knoxville and they ran their's on sale for $2 a piece with no limit. We ended up with a ton of 12 packs. We bought all the variety they had, and love it all. What are your favs?

I used to love diet coke with lemon, its been discontinued. Had coke zero in an airport last month and loved it, the artificial taste of diet coke wasn't there. Closest flavour to the original I have tasted. I still prefer the sugared stuff, too bad my waistline doesn't.

I love Diet Coke and don't mind the taste, but Coke Zero is awesome! The only time I don't like Diet Coke is when I'm eating something sweet with lots of sugar, but Coke Zero still tastes good with stuff like that.

There's no option for "I'd rather drink bleach"!

Some things are supposed to be bad for you- cola is one of them (ice cream is another).

I can't drink Aspartame, or I get a migraine. I can drink just one sip in the evening and be out of commission the WHOLE next day. Started when they started using it in diet drinks back in the mid-80s. (Took awhile for me to figger out where the headaches and fuzziness came from!)

That stuff is evil. It's gotta be really bad for ya. I was so HAPPY they started putting Splenda in Diet Coke recently, since I had to give up the sugar kind after all these 20 years. Diet Rite has Splenda too when I can't find Diet Coke. :)

Unfortunately I agree with you-wish I could get used to them, but it just is not going to happen.

I've been on a diet cherry coke kick for a while. Coke zero isn't bad, but I don't generally like diet cola if it isn't flavored. I'll take a diet DP or Dew anyday. well, at least days when i can't have my pepsi!

Anything with Nutrasweet is a NoNo!

At 95 degrees it starts changing its chemical composition.

You do not want to know what to!

If you do research.
