there's no provable causal link between aspartame and cancer. yet again the WHO/IARC releases another confusing recommendation which the press picks up as some sort of dire danger, which is disencouraging because this may undermine their previous recommendations against stuff like glyphosate (an actual fucking carcinogen). that being said aspartame tastes bitter wtf do you seriously like diet coke?
My SO has to go under anesthesia every few years for some medical diagnostics, and theres a clear liquid diet. The previous time we stupidly got our normal gatorade zero for it. Felt horrible, bad migraines, etc.
The most recent time, we realized how dumb that was and got frickin sugar gatorade, sugar jello, and some of those Nitro Pepsis. Pretty fucking good. Felt waaaaaaay better not missing all those calories.
I compare it to drinking skim milk. Once you make the switch whole milk starts tasting worse - same thing with regular soda once you start drinking diet.
God I completly disagree with this. Diet flavoring tastes fucking disgusting to me and always has. Meanwhile I like nondiet sodas a lot, even though I know they are terrible for me.
's general "I FUCKING LOVE SCIENCE" population spent years shitting on people for being wary of glyphosate by pulling the "it's made of science therefore it can't be bad" and "if you don't like science product you must live in a mud hut and believe in ghosts" and even "actually this feeds the third world so if you're opposed to it you want the global poor to starve" cards.

Regular coke (or any non-diet soda for that matter) has a consistency that's just too gross for me to drink. It's like drinking syrup.
Yes! I have a sugar soda like once every couple months and it's so syrupy. I can feel it on my mouth and teeth. Way worse than diet soda in every way
Same, I get a Jarrito's lime from time to time.
my dad fucking swears on pineapple jarritos, i dont see the appeal

I had no idea what Nitro Pepsi was, looks interesting. Might try to get one before work.
solid B+, like a guinness but pepsi

I have made the switch to 1% ages ago and whenever I steal some of my roommates whole it still tastes better. Not feeling this one.
maybe that's just me then
i can relate to this
i have nothing else to add i just didnt want u to feel alone
Some UK food bodies once classed it as a syrup iirc. (But I might be remembering it wrong. Was to do with the volume of sugar to water ratio)

Juice is my vice; for some blessed reason I find soda in general simply unappealing.
My sister is like that, the only soda she's willing to drink is Ramune, and she only does it out of committment to weebdom
Diet Pepsi for me. Every time I try a regular Pepsi it tastes like stale unsalted popcorn.
diet pepsi and pepsi max are underrated for sure
The only soda my parents really bought growing up was diet Pepsi, most of them taste fine to me.
