One reason is all the “zero sugar drinks” outside of sprite had very similar cans and color schemes in their logos.

This is a better looking can and design. It’s more satisfying to the eye and will give more of a mental thought of drinking a regular coke.

Diet Coke tastes like regular Coke mixed with pool water

As another fatty, I can attest.

I can stay fat without sacrificing taste for my own conscious. Knowing that every can is one moment closer to putting me closer to the final dirt nap.

The only reason I ever really drink "soda" is when I want a caffeine boost for whatever reason when I'm not in the mood for coffee. Diet Coke has more caffeine than Coke Zero so I prefer that. I can't imagine the fat folks that receive most of their hydration from soft drinks. I prefer good old water above all else.

That's the original name. It was "coke Zero sugar" until like 2014 then it became "coke zero". Now it's back to "zero sugar" hopefully they went back to the 2008-2014 recipe

I know you're just trying to push a narrative here, but you realize the change was from a black can to a red can, right?

I like the Mexican version of Coca-Cola more better. It's the Coca-Cola like I remember.

Probably bc Mexican Coke is made with real sugar, as the American cokes use high fructose corn syrup

Cokes in Europe also use real sugar

Ok if we don’t like the amount of sugar that is one thing, but there is no reality where Diet Coke taste better

Drink it for about seven days. On the eighth day you will not notice a difference. I haven’t drank a real coke in 20 years. I don’t even drink diet but once in a blue moon. I basically cut only soda out of my diet and dropped 45 pounds. It’s delicious but poison.

Damn. How many cokes a day were you drinking back then?

I consider a Coke to be like a candy bar when it comes to diet. Every now and then I will have one, or half a can but it’s pretty rare that I eat or drink a Coke/candy bar.

The zero sodas are far better than diet. I am so happy they came out being type 1 diabetic. Had to do insulin to enjoy a soda that didn’t taste like arse was not a good plan.

They have a lot of great options too. Root Beer, cherry coke, etc. so…shut up

It looks like the 50% less calorie Coke C2 that they had for a year in the mid-2000s.

I love Coke Zero, I hate Diet Coke. If a restaurant has Diet Coke but not Coke Zero, I will take the calorie hit and drink regular Coke.
