I think they call that water

How do you pronounce this water drink you speak of?

 

[Muskieratboi]

This is going to be New Coke for the Millennials.

 

[sensui-tomo]

as long as they still make dr pepper 10 i'm fine (i dont like dr pepper regular , kinda like diet dr pepper but dr pepper 10 has the right mix) .....

Speaking of Coke, anyone got a craving for Vault? (that surge like drink)

 

[Tylercrat]

Coke Zero is great from a can or bottle, but for some reason I prefer diet in fountain form.

Yeah it does taste better for some reason from the fountain. I'm not sure why.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

What marketing genius came up with that name?

The name had a slow start in focus group testing, but we feel it will come on strong.

 

[PuppetSlave]

Ughh hopefully this fails down under so they give up on this.

Preferred diet and then they changed it so it tastes like zero. If they now remove zero then I will just switch to pepsi max. Been drinking zero and diet for so long the regular coke just tastes wrong.

 

[JetBlackPanda]

As a type 1 diabetic.. I welcome regular profile soda with no sugar or very low sugar.

Bring it on!

 

[Archaix]

Coke zero is the only coke product I ever drink. Diet Coke is terrible.

I can't have too much caffeine because of a heart defect, so I always drank caffeine free Coke, and recently switched to caffeine free Coke zero to cut back on my sugar intake. Now what do I do? :/

"Pepsi Blue"

 

[Incendiary]

Damn, I love Coke Zero. That's really annoying that they're cancelling it. Hopefully this No Sugar Coke tastes good enough.

 

[Log4Girlz]

Syrup inconsistency. Half the time the machine probably got loaded with regular coke by a kid who didn't graduate high school

Nah, I'm talking even at my location with proper syrups attached

 

[adamsappel]

They do, it's either called Coca Cola Life or Coke with Stevia. It's actually not that bad, but it takes a while to get used to.

Oh, right, the green label. Yeah, that was even better! But I didn't want even the 60 calories. I guess Coke Zero was always aspartame as well. Why change the formula? I read that Coke Zero was the diet version of Coke Classic formula and Diet Coke was the no-calorie New Coke. I remember the New Coke debacle. I visited my grandmother that summer and she had the basement filled with real Cokes in those little glass bottles!

 

[God Dayumm]

Doesn't roll off the tongue. Should have called it Coke Unsugared or Coke 0gr or something

Coca-Cola No Sugar No Caffeine

 

[Piichan]

I'm all for Coca Cola experimenting. They launched Coca Cola Plus not too long ago here. Tastes like Zero, but has the added benefit of further breaking down the fat of whatever you are eating while you drink it.

Curious about what No Sugar tastes like.

 

[MikeOfAllTrades]

My wife will be devastated. They better not touch my Mello Yello Zero!

 

[soultron]

What is this nonsense? Diet Coke taste significantly better than Coke and Coke Zero. It's not even a competition really.

Bait No Sugar right here.

 

[Commanche Raisin Toast]

Coca-Cola No Sugar No Caffeine

Do they make it sans caffeine? If so then I'm down.

Diet Coke is a totally different formula. New Coke was essentially Diet Coke, but with HFCS added .

Coke Zero was supposed to taste like regular coke (which regular coke doesn't even taste right due to the switch to HFCS from sugar). However, it doesn't.

 

[JetBlackPanda]

Most of these companies could cut the sugar content to like 5-10 grams of sugar and most people would have no idea.

Some Mt. Dew offshoots like Green Label are considerably less sugar then a 12oz can of Mt. Dew and the geen label cans are 16oz.

 

[Flame Lord]

I'll be waiting for Coke Zero Classic.

 

[LegalEagleMike]

but i like coke zero.

 

[Novocaine]

RIP Diet Coke: man edition

How the hell do you not know a non-diet soda has sugar?

A lot of people lack critical thinking skills.

 

[Davey Cakes]

Coke Zero is the best Coke!

 

[Ocaso]

No way this isn't a marketing stunt meant to create outrage along with awareness of the new product. Coke Zero is amazing and better than regular Coke. If they actually discontinue it...

 

[JetBlackPanda]

Coke Zero is the best Coke!

It's really good but it's REALLY unnaturally sweet.

 

[jmdajr]

This is bullshit!!!!

 

[Chris R]

WTF? Coke Zero already tastes like Coke and has zero sugar???????????????

 

[Tagyhag]

I didn't like Coke Zero, but I'd definitely try a new version. Nothing beats cane sugar Coke though.

lol. I loved the belching when I used to drink diet coke. It felt good. I don't drink soda anymore because it was having a bad health affect on me. But boy do I miss it.

Drink sparkling water, same good belching.

 

[unpopularblargh]

Didn't they say the same for coke zero? I'll believe it when I see it, coke zero was a lot better than diet but still no where near regular.

This.

 

[Strangelove77]

They should just get rid of Diet Coke instead.

 

[Lord Frieza]

WTF? Coke Zero already tastes like Coke and has zero sugar???????????????

It does not taste like regular coke

 

[Shiv47]

If I needed a reason to quit drinking soda, Coke getting rid of Coke Zero would be it.

 

[linkboy]

It does not taste like regular coke

This is the only Coke that tastes like regular Coke.

 

[NHarmonic.]

It's 2017, who still drinks this stuff?

Toxic shit.

 

[Phu]

Coke Sugarless

 

[Liseda]

good, diet/zero version of coke tastes like shit.

maybe this will taste better

WTF? Coke Zero already tastes like Coke and has zero sugar???????????????

maybe if you have no tastebuds, they taste very different

 

[Piichan]

Fixed in bold.

How so?

 

[Cptkrush]

Toxic shit.

Practically this entire thread. Got any evidence to back up your toxic claim? Cause I'll get out ahead and say most research on it is completely biased or just myth in general.

 

[100%TrophyMaster]

Diet Coke with Splenda is where it's at fam.

 

[royalroyal]

Yes please.

 

[Amalthea]

They always state that their newest sugar-free Coke tastes nearly like regular Coke. And then it doesn't.

 

[Chris R]

maybe if you have no tastebuds, they taste very different

They are different, but it's close enough.

Diet Coke is shit, same with Diet Dr. Pepper.

Wish more places had Dr. Pepper 10 around since that tastes almost exactly the same as regular Dr. Pepper and has only 10 calories per can

 

[Red Devil]

I stopped drinking regular Coke in favor of Coke Zero, I hope this is just something like a name change.
