I pretty much agree with this one...but I'd rate Coke Zero and Pepsi One (in that order) ahead of Diet Peps. Diet Coke has always struck me as having very little flavor other than the artificial sweetner. I also like Tab....if I can ever find it (and I'm not referring to the new "energy drink" version).

Pepsi only. I've cut back my soda intake tremendously but when I have to have a caffeine/sugar fix, only Pepsi will do.

Pepsi is for losers

Coke is the real thing

(although with the sugarfree stuff Pepsi wins hands down)

that's the artificial sweetener breaking down over time (Ace-K and Aspartame)... quite bitter after it loses its sweetening properties.

Not to derail, but anybody try Fresca? It's put out by Coke. Good product, and much better for you.

I absolutely LOVE diet lemon coke. That's my favorite. I'm not sure if you can get it in the states any more. I've had the diet lime coke there but don't like it.

It depends when you bought KO!

Diet Coke
Diet Coke with Vanilla, and
Coke Zero.
I haven't had a drink of "normal" Coke in years.

Pepsi is a no-go. That includes the diet stuff. If I'm really desperate, I'll drink Pepsi Max.

Fresca is good.


I only drink diet versions of Coke or diet pepsi or at least I used too. I prefer Diet Coke.

I've recently tried to limit my intake of artificially colored beverages like Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi and soda altogether. If I drink soda, I aim for sprite, fresca, 7up that type of thing.

Well, they don't make Diet Vanilla any more, at least in the U.S. I love Diet Coke, but the Vanilla stuff may be the worst stuff I've ever tasted. I dumped the rest of the can, as well as the other 11 cans from the 12-pak down the drain.

Interesting. I like the Lime, but NOT the lemon. I saw the lemon as recently as a couple of days ago on sale at the supermarket.

Favorite is Pepsi One, followed by Diet Pepsi (or Pepsi Light, depending on the country). Also a fan of Diet Pepsi or Diet Coke with Lime, and Fresca ^

A large Diet Coke with your stir fry?
