Diet soda drinkers --

[Luv2Roam]

All the great accomplishments in this world and no one seems to make a decent diet soda without that nasty after taste.

What diet drink do you prefer and why?

 

[Dan Murphy]

Diet Coke, Pepsi are fine for me. Preference is Diet Rite.

Did you know about 10% of us don't find the taste of artificial sweeteners sweet? It has to do with our chemistry.

I have not found any diet drink something I could continue to drink. They all taste very bitter to me. I do find nutrasweet to taste sweet though. Go figure.

I do not like any diet pop, yuck!

If I stop drinking diet drinks, it takes me a while to get used to it again. I just force myself to keep drinking until I am used to the taste again. Now I am currently drinking caffeine free diet Coke. That takes a long time to get used to drinking. After drinking that, really sweet sodas like Pepsi taste really funny to me. I don't like diet Pepsi at all though.

Im a Diet Coke addict, so I taste no nasty aftertaste thats for sure. I dont particularly care for diet Pepsi, but if its all thats offered, I dont really have a choice.

I don't like Diet Pepsi or Diet Cole. My favorite drink is Diet Mountain Dew Code Red. I can also drink regular Diet Mountain Dew. The bad thing is I haven't been able to find Diet Code Red in cans yet. .

I have no choice (am diabetic) & only drink diet. I prefer diet coke to pepsi - the pepsi taste flat & sweet to me. I also like PA Dutch birch beer & clearly american key lime seltzer. I don't taste the after-taste with the aspartame. When they used saccharine, I rarely drank soda at all. YUCK!

Dan - I had to laugh! The only cola drink I like less than Diet Rite is Tab! I guess that's why there are so many different brands!

Don't like diet sodas either, I think they taste nasty!

And Nutrasweet (aspartame) gives me a headache!

 

[Snow White]

Bluck!!! Cant do diet drinks, when Im feeling guilty for drinking my "real" coke, I'll drink more tea

I LOVE Diet Pepsi.

Regular Pepsi or Coke taste DISGUSTING too me, way too sweet.

To each their own.

 

[catsrule]

diet coke addict...like it because it isn't as sweet.

 

[RoutemanDan]

Diet coke drinker.
Drink diet cola for two weeks and you will never be able to stand the taste of regular cola again.

 

[janette]

Another Diet Coke person, don't really like anything else except for Diet or regular Dr Pepper.

Can't drink regular Coke, it just tastes awful.

 

[DopeyRN]

Blondie nutrasweet gives lots of people headaches...and worse. I know someone who's daughter had a couple of seizures, and the pediatric neurologist freaked when she told him her daughter drank diet drinks. It is, and this is just my humble opinion, a dangerous man made chemical. Plus it tastes nasty. If I ever become a diabetic (gasp!) my soft drink days will be over.

 

[Kallison]

I like the new Diet Vanilla Coke, I can't really taste the diff between Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi. I don't like diet light colored sodas like Sprite. I try not to drink soda, but sometimes I just need that caffeine fix, especially when I'm at work.

Ditto!

I used to drink Diet Dr Pepper every now and then, until they changed the formula. Now all I taste is their artificial sweetener. I agree, those artificial sweetners are very bitter and leave an awful aftertaste. Give me the full sweetened version of anything I drink!

Wasn't TAB the FIRST Diet Cola, or am I mistaken? I USED to drink Diet Coke, but switched to Diet Pepsi when they came out with the "new pretty blue" cans. I had a REGULAR Soda today, and BOY did it taste Sweet, after drinking Diet for 2 years!

DIET PEPSI!!!

I will drink diet coke if need be.. I have heard that nutrasweet is bad for folks with fibromyalgia.. but going without a diet pepsi would be worse for me. I am greatful for anything with nutrasweet. I am diabetic too, it is soooo nice to have a choice.
Nutrasweet does not add carbs to my daily count.. YIPPEE!!
