Diet Coke made with real Splenda
 
Have any of ya'll tried this yet? I did today and it rocks.

If you are a diet coke drinker, you will swear it is regular coke.

Saw it at the convienience store and am used to seeing the 20oz diet cokes with the different color tops; green for lime diet coke, yellow for lemmon diet coke; silver top for regualr diet coke. Today I saw the blue top and was all 'what the hell now?" Dont know why I decided to try it, but it rocked. They dont sell it in the grocery stores here yet.

I'm hooked.

That and the Diet Cherry-Vanilla Dr. Pepper have made my summer so happy! :D

I don't really like it...I guess I'm used to the chemical asperatame-y goodness of regular Diet Coke.

My three favorite products: Diet Cherry Coke, Diet Coke with Splenda, and Diet Cherry Vanilla Dr. Pepper. Too bad none of these come in fountain :(

Oh yes! Unfortunately, everyone else around here seems to like it as much as I do so it's hard to find. And my hoarded supply is dwindling :(

LOL at Lil Hannah's "chemical asperatame-y goodness of regular Diet Coke"!

I can usually only find the Diet Cherry-Vanilla DP at WalMart! Another one I like is the Diet Vanilla Coke...a bunch of us got hooked on that at a Pi Phi reunion last year. The cherry and lime are good too.

My husband came in yesterday with something called Coke Zero. So far I can't tell how it's different from the other diet Cokes.

I like the Diet Coke with splenda, but my sister get's horrible migraines after ingesting splenda. Just a warning!

Where is everyone getting these custom-made versions of Coke?

Diet Coke with Splenda and Diet Cherry Vanilla Dr. Pepper are my two new vices! And this is coming from someone who hates diet sodas!

Lil' Hannah, I was so excited when I brought the Diet Coke with Splenda home because I thought my diabetic husband would love it. He didn't like it either. Said he preferred the aspartame flavored version because the splenda flavored version tasted *too much* like regular Coke! And here I thought that was the best thing about it! haha

I like it for a change, but it won't replace Diet Coke in my heart.

At any store, gas station... You have to buy them by the bottle or the can because none of them come in the fountain version - at least not yet.

This is not a good thing!

Regular Coke is gross. Aspartame all the way, kids.

I haven't had a real sugar soda (that wasn't cream soda or root beer) in years now, so I think I'm just used to the taste of aspartame. I was addicted to Diet Mountain Dew for years, but a while back when my roommate made me try her full-sugar version of Mountain Dew, I spit it out. How can people drink that?

It's funny how different people are. I'd rather go thirsty than have to try and choke down even 1 sip of Diet anything!

I don't know. I know I've bought Diet Cherry Coke in Vegas, but I haven't been up North in a while... Can get it in FL too (do you consider that the south ;) )
