Pour one out...

If you like your Coke Zero exactly the way it is now, it might be time to start stockpiling cans of sodas.

On Wednesday, Coca-Cola announced that it would stop selling Coke Zero in the US in August, replacing it with a beverage with a different recipe, design, and name: Coke Zero Sugar.


That shite was like crack to me. Hopefully the new stuff isn't New Coke V2.

When I drink a coke, Coke Zero is what I drink. I hope the new recipe is good. I guess it wasn't selling well or became too expensive or both.

Dammit. That was the one diet drink that actually did not taste like a diet drink. Will need a new bourbon mixer for the dog walks.

I can't go through that again. Coke Zero is my favorite, for real, and making it more like real Coke doesn't sound like an improvement. Time to start stockpiling. 1985 all over again.

Coke Zero is the best diet drink out there by far. This new shite better be great.

I never understood the appeal of soft drinks (outside of being used as a cocktail mixer). Sucking down black corn syrup just seems gross.

I don't drink diet soda very often. But when I do, it's Coke Zero.

Stay thirsty my friends.

I like Coke Zero, the wife likes Diet Coke, this is going to make her think she has better taste.

Was never a big fan. If I'm choosing diet, going with Diet Coke or diet Dr Pepper

Well that is really annoying. The only time I drink coke is when mixing drinks. I can't tell a taste difference at all between it and normal coke in a mixed drink. I sure hope the new stuff tastes similar, because that is a nice way to avoid several hundred empty calories.

I never really liked it. I'll give it another chance when the new recipe comes out.

Damnit.. I drink a Coke Zero with lunch every day.. I do drink other diet sodas from time to time but Coke Zero is my go-to.. and it was finally catching on at restaurants, and here goes Coca-Cola pulling the plug on it

They sure know how to piss off fat people and caffeine addicts

How is it with bourbon? Maybe like an Old Fashioned? May have to try.

Not at all like an old fashioned, but tasty nonetheless
