Lost Soul Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 thats interesting when you lay it all down like that, but god to me diet drinks are all nasty, they never give you the true taste of what a product should be like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cluberti Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Most diet drinks are indeed too "sugary" compared to their non-diet counterparts, but I've found that I can't drink regular soda at all anymore, and I actually drink Diet Coke whenever I need a soda fix. I find it to be quite tasty (and Cherry Coke Zero is pretty darned good too, at least to me). Regular soda has become to syrupy for my taste buds.

cluberti Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 So...you prefer diet or regular? I prefer neither, but when I have a soda jones, I go for diet because I probably want the sugar and caffiene, but don't want it to taste like syrup. Make sense?

tain Posted August 30, 2007 Author Share Posted August 30, 2007 Yeah, that makes sense (except diet has no sugar). My previous line of thought was that you preferred one over the other. I haven't met many folks who don't like *any* soda. That is downright un-American! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaGhul Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Yes, actually, according to Wikipedia, most soft drinks made in the USA now use corn syrup in lieu of sugar. So that makes perfect sense. I actually prefer diet myself. I started drinking it because my mom's a diabetic, and whenever I went to visit her, that's all she had. And once you get used to the taste, regular Coke tastes too sweet.But, every now and then.... I get the Jones for a real one!! :P0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
