Why is diet soda a huge vice for so many people?

We've long known that it is arguably much worse for you than the regular version (which already isn't good for you) but it also tastes way worse.
I get that we all have bad habits, but the mass obsession with diet soda is one I've never really understood.

I read somewhere that your body thinks it’s getting sugar but it isn’t. It’s fake sugar. But your body craves sugar so people keep drinking it. Turns into an addiction. Could be bullshite though.

Makes no sense.
And it’s wrong

People are weak. Bottom line. They’ll believe anything esp if it comes from an American doctor who is a glorified legal drug dealer these days.

We who drink them like to pretend they’re not bad for us because of no sugar/calories. Still, the chemicals in them cause some unease. I guess you trade one devil for another.

Paracelsus my friend. It's how to live life.

I usually drink a Coke per week but with cane sugar, so much better.
Anyways, 90% of the people that drink Diet Coke are already fat

We have known that there have been reports that it can have worse affects on you than regular soda, but there are also reports that say otherwise.

It ain’t critical thinking chief, it’s simple thinking. You can’t know something and it be arguable at the same time

I'm not suggesting it's good for you, at all, but it absolutely does help with that, especially if you're chugging down a few of these a day.

Not sure my wife could make it through the day without Diet Mnt Dew. I hate to think how many of them she drinks.
I quit drinking cokes when I quit smoking 20+ years ago. Haven’t had one since.

Diet sodas are disgusting. If I'm going to have a soda I'm getting the real thing. Why frick around?
