It was ok...I didn't think it tasted that much better than regular diet coke.

The ONLY way I like real Coke is mixed with Jack or rum...even then, I'm moving more towards just drinking Jack on the rocks.

I HATE SPLENDA!!! It makes things taste wayyyyyy too sweet. YUCK. I tried the new Diet Coke made with it but it was still terrible.

Give me regular Diet Coke any time please.

Or actually no soda at all, regular iced tea, no sugar, no lemon, and tons of ice. YUM! :D

DC with Splenda is disgusting. Period. Give me good old plain Diet Coke, no vanilla or cherry flavor. Just Diet Coke.

Diet Coke = good

Diet Coke with Splenda = EEEEEWIES!

Although I do like the Sprite Zero and I like diet coke with lime. Diet coke with lime and SoCo is AMAZING!

Have they stopped making it? I was so happy, and now it's gone! It disappeared for a while around Christmas, and then it reappeared in new package sizes, and now it's gone again. Somebody please tell me it's just selling out.
Well, I know we still have C2 here on campus and in town at our stores. Maybe there wasn't such a demand where you live?

I'm currently drinking the Coke with Splenda because my doctor told me I had to cut back on my pop intake. I've never been able to drink diet sodas before because aspartame gives me massive headaches. I really wish Mountain Dew would be made with splenda. Although I really don't like Coke and Coke products that much, this stuff is okay.

Has anyone tried the Pepsi One, which I believe is also made with Splenda?

I am also horribly allergic to Splenda. It is in so many things and I was eating it and not knowing it. I did some research and it is made with chlorine, which I am highly sensitive to (I get headaches and nausea from walking by the outside of the pool on campus, or any cleaner with bleach in it).

Kind of sucks beause a lot of diet sodas are made with Splenda so I have to go without yummy things like Hansen's and other low sugar items. it is in freakin' everything, flavored creamers, orange juice, jams, etc.

very very nasty stuff...

I just tried it yesterday for the first time..was surprised at how much it tasted like real Coke. Hubby, who hates diet drinks, liked it.

It wasn't too bad, but I prefer the Diet Coke with Lime.


Have you all seen that Pepsi now has lime flavor?

It's in Wawa stores here. I'm tempted to try it. I'm a Diet Pepsi girl, but I'll try just about anything once.

txdiva 06-11-2005 10:34 AM

It's not bad, it's just very sweet.

Oooooh, I'm with you. That stuff is naaaaaaaaaaaaasty. It leaves a weird, yucky aftertaste, too.

Oh, and my boyfriend (who will usually drink anything) didn't even like it. That's how bad it is.

Do you have any bad reactions to MSG too?

I think anything with Splenda has a funny taste, so I'm reluctant to try it. I hate Diet Coke and the only diet drink I can tolerate is Diet 7-Up. I think the non-diet Coke with lime is teh isht!!

KillarneyRose 06-11-2005 06:55 PM

I'm so disappointed! Hated it!!! :(

I thought that it tasted like off-brand cola.

I have 11 cans; anyone want 'em? :D
