Coca-Cola Zero

Has anyone tried Coca-Cola Zero? I'm a die-hard diet Coke fanatic, so I was skeptical about this, but now that I've tasted it, I'll never go back to diet Coke. It tastes almost exactly like regular Coke!

The only problem is that it's not sold in Canada (yet), so I drove across the border yesterday and brought home three cases.

I've tried it - I really can't tell much of a difference between Diet Coke and Coke Zero. I'm a fan of both (I like the taste better than regular coke, unless I'm using it as a mixer).

I'm not such a huge fan of the Diet Coke with Splenda though.

I can't stand Diet Coke at all but I really like Coca-Cola Zero! It tastes very similar to regular Coke. I just wish it would be on the fountains at restaurants.

The zero part refers to the taste IMO. I didn't like it at all.

I tried the US version of Coke Zero, and I enjoyed it.

I don't think it's out in Canada yet, but I will try it when it finally on the shelves here.

Co sign. I only buy it because it's 2 20 ounces for a dollar here. It's a drink....nothing special.

Coke Zero is made with splenda and another sweetener.

Someone told me that Coca-Coca Zero is the same as Coca-Coca Light (Europe) -- is this true?

My mom and I were always Diet Pepsi drinkers until we tried Cocacola Zero. We hate the name, but to me, it tastes the same as regular Coke.

I don't think so. I think Europe's Coke Light is basically half Diet Coke and half Coke (so therefore half the calories and sugar.) Coke Zero has no calories. Not positive about that though.

I am a Diet Coke addict and I just tried Coke Zero today for the first time. It tastes exactly like Coke. That should be a good thing, but I have been drinking Diet for so long that it is a shock to the system. I think I like it though. I had better drink the whole case to be sure.

Reading this thread inspired me to buy a bottle of Coca-Cola zero. It's good. It would be better with crushed ice. It's starting to warm up since I don't drink soda very fast, and that seems to increase the Splenda aftertaste.
