Let's Talk Diet Drinks So my question to you gals is this..... which diet drink (i.e Diet Cola, Diet Cola Zero,Diet Sprite, Diet Sprite Zero, Diet Dr. Pepper) tastes the best? I have heard that Diet Coke is 99% water... would this be the same for the remaining diet drinks? I like water don't get me wrong but after awhile it kinda grosses me out and I miss my sodas...:D so any ideas?:p |
I drink Coke Zero and Sprite Zero. I think they taste the best. Pepsi Max is good out of a bottle. lol I know it sounds weird but, I don't think it tastes as good in a can. |
well I am tooo hooked on diet pepsi... so I am not much help except to tell you this...anne |
I drink diet coke with splenda (different from regular diet coke or coke zero). Most bigger stores carry it, but not all, you have to look for it. I don't drink it out of the can or bottle, I pour it into a glass. For some reason it tastes much better out of a glass. I keep the cans in the fridge so they are cold and I don't put any ice in the glass as it gets watered down with ice and doesn't taste as good. That's my MO! :D |

Yes lets talk about diet drinks - it's so freakin confusing. I'm addicted like Anne to Diet Pepsi - I buy BIG K from Kroger and it tastes just like it for 1/2 the price - but I'm hearing all sorts of really BAD things about the diet sweeteners....When I get to work I'll get the article and post it.... I'm trying to drink Green tea with raw sugar and do NOT LIKE THE TASTE .... I need Fizzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz in my life ! |
I used to drink a lot of diet sodas, but not any more. My favorites were Valt0, Diet Mountain Dew (expecially the Code Red) and Diet A&W Rootbeer. I have cut out artificial sweeting from my diet and I do believe I am feeling better. Now I drink water with lemon or lime. |
I love Fresca, but I really can't drink it anymore. I think the carbonation and the tart flavor did a job on my esophagus! |

I'm trying to stop but not getting very far - I've been wondering if drinking diet soda every day is the reason I feel so dragged out all the time.....good for you. Now HOW did you do it - don't you really miss it ? ps...I drink lots of water all day at work - then come home and sometimes have 2-3 a night ....BAD ME |
Any type of diet soda is still bad for you. All synthetic sweeteners are bad for you. Water is the way to go. Also flavored waters & vitamin waters are not that great either. They contain several preservatives & artificial ingredients. I work for a beverage company, my responsibility is to make sure labels are FDA compliant before they hit the market therefore I know alot about ingredients added in beverages. |
I like fresca.. and I have never really been a BIG soda drinker BUT i do like variety and would like to know there are other choices out there for when Im feeling like some pop and don't want to drink the real thing... lol... |
I love diet Coke but only allow myself one can a day and a small glass at night. I also like Diet Pepsi. I have been drinking the Crystal Light packets you add to a water bottle to try and get more water in me. I really like them. I won't drink just plain water, although I know I should :) |
I am addicted to Diet Pepsi....tried to "quit" just can't....I gave up smoking 2 yrs ago and THAT was easier than giving up Diet Pepsi. I know artificial sweetners are bad...but I can't have the sugar due to hypoglocemia (low blood sugar)..so what is a girl to do?? LOL.... |
I drink Diet Pepsi like it is going out of style! :p Seriously, I drink about 5-6 a day. I know I have an addiction to the caffeine in it...if I don't have one by about mid-day I start getting a really bad headache. I keep telling myself...it could be worse, it could be a non-diet soda. |
i read somewhere that Diet Coke is good for people with arthritis or Rheumatoid Arthritis..... the aspartme (sp) helps the fluidity in joints.... ? |
I drink Diet Rite Pure Zero....it has splenda in it which is better for my headaches. If I drink stuff with Nutrasweet in it, I tend to get massive Migraines. If I stay away from it, I do better. I'm also trying to drink more water. I was adding the packets to my water, but most of them also have artificial sweeteners. I do add fresh lemon, lime and oranges to my water and it is totally refreshing....now if I could just give up my coffee, I'd be doing great. I'm not quite ready for that, yet. |

I drink flavored seltzer water and very rarely drink diet soda. You get your flavor and your fizz with none of the bad stuff! :) Id rather have an occasional glass of the high test soda then diet everyday. However, if I were to drink diet soda it is usually Coke Zero or Cherry Coke Zero. To me it has the best flavor! When I indulge in the real stuff, its almost always Sunkist! LOVE THAT STUFF! :) |
hmm.. flavored seltzer water? Like Pierre? |

my mom has severe RA and has been told to comepletly stop drinking anything with artificial sweeteners |
I am absolutely hooked on Coke Zero & Pibb Xtra Zero....they really taste the closest to the original! |
I never could handle diet soda, bleech. Nothing beats a fountain soda pop though. Couple months ago I stopped drinking soda and switched to mostly water. Last few times I've tried soda I get a couple sips into it and I just can't drink it anymore, makes me sick. Rootbeer if I just get the craving. |
I LOVE diet Dr. Pepper!! Back in high school, I stopped drinking pop for 3 years straight. I came to college, started drinking it again and I CANT quit now!:eek: I think I'd kill for a cherry vanilla diet dr. pepper fresh out of the fountain over a nice glass of ice!:D |

I have fibro and migraine headaches and the only artificial sweeteners I can use is the splenda. I still react to it, but not as bad as the nurtasweet. I try to stay away from artifical sweeteners but like it has been said, it is really hard. I do have to have a soda from time to time and will put up with the effects if I'm really desperate. There is nothing like a Ice cold Sun Drop, which is a soda like Mountain Dew, that is made locally and is heaven. I do have some form of soda from time to time, we can't be good all the time. Maybe I should take up drinking beer..lol, but that gives me nasty headaches!!! |
