First they reformulate the recipe (which no one asked for), then they changed the name to "Coke Zero Sugar," and now they are selling them in bottles and cans that look very similar to the Classic Coke label.

The same reason they screwed up the original Coke formula in the 80s

Because we don’t need that much sugar. Look at our obesity rate

because coke zero sugar is fantastic and way better than coke zero. Dr Pepper zero is great too.

I can't tell much of a difference between "new" Coke Zero and "old" Coke Zero, to be honest.

Seeing as how Coke’s brand has reached the eyes and ears of more people on earth than the Gospel of Christ, I’d say this is the marketing department trying to do something to justify their continued existence in the company.

You realize how much weight you’d drop by not ingesting 130 calories a can? It’s actually significant if you like soda

Plus Diet Coke tastes better than regular coke

Based on your post alone, the marketing dept at Coke would be the last where people would have "justify" their existence.

Coke is a marketing machine and owes its market share to marketing.

Sucks that you have to go to Mexico to get a real, authentic Coca-Cola.

What I’m saying is that they’ve done their job. Now they just tinker with stuff so they have something to do.
