These are similar products but they draw very different crowds. These are my observations over the years.
Diet Coke people- tend to be obese and have an extreme addiction to the product. They simply cannot go a day without it
Coke Zero people- more casual with using the product. Most people who drink Coke Zero do not Need it daily

I’m a Coke Zero person. I think I’m superior to the heathens who are suckered into addiction of Diet Coke.

I don't like diet coke, but do drink coke zero. Maybe one every other day.

I haven't tried mountain dew zero yet, but I want to.

I don’t get why anyone drinks Diet Coke. Coke Zero is sooooooooo much better.

Diet coke completely different formula than regular coke

I drink diet coke and coke zero occasionally. I don't really have a preference.

I might drink one or two per week though. I can't stand the sugar bomb of a regular coke.

Grew up only being allowed to have 1 soft drink a day, and the only ones my parents bought were diet versions.

When people get used to Diet Coke, they tend to no longer like regular. Since I grew up on Diet Coke, I never liked regular. Coke Zero tastes like regular to me.

From what I've read, different people taste artificial sweeteners in different ways. Some people can't handle them at all and taste them immediately. Some people like some, but not others.

I only drink cold drinks when I'm at lunch and feel like a change of pace from unsweet tea or Arnold Palmers. Sometimes when taking a break from beer while watching sports or at a gathering. When I do, Coke Zero is freakin delicious. Diet Coke is adequate if it's really cold.

Well something with zero calories cant make you gain weight alone, so not sure why weight is associated with diet drinks.

I’ve liked Coke Zero since it originally came out.

I’m really glad that it caught on and a lot of places carry it, although I do drink water a lot when I dine out.

Sounds like you just live around a bunch of fatties. Which, if you live in Louisiana, that's why.

I've noticed more females drink Diet Coke and males Coke Zero. I don't work with a bunch of fatties so I can't really say.

I've never met anyone that NEEDS coke. Well not the soft drink, anyway.

I think they're just referring to a lot of Diet Coke drinkers coincidentally being fat.

As far as the "diet soda makes you fat" argument, the studies done on this concluded that some people are ~triggered~ (lol) by the artificial sweeteners in diet soda and it causes them to crave sugar and eat as a result. I fortunately am not one of those people. Diet soda actually is the perfect filler for me when it isn't meal time and I'm hungry.
