I'm always surprised when I notice that I haven't posted in a number of days. I mentally compose numerous entries that never make it to the screen, even though I read other blogs twice a day. Well, onwards and upwards.
I love Diet Coke.
A lot.
Yesterday I conducted an experiment to evaluate all these new products, so I had a glass of Diet Coke, Diet Coke with Splenda, and Coca-Cola Zero. I tasted to see which I liked better, and then switched 'em all again to see if I could still distinguish between them. I could.
The results:
Coca-Cola Zero is very distinct from the other two (I didn't have a regular Coke, because I don't really care about how close it is to that). It probably does taste more like Coke, which I don't like (yes, I just prefer the taste of Diet Coke; it's not really a calorie thing), so never again shall that product darken my door.
Diet Coke with Splenda is very similar to Diet Coke, but slightly sweeter. If you've been to the Continent, it reminds me of Coca Light, which is even better than Diet Coke! I'm not sure that I can quite say that the Splenda variety Diet Coke trumps the original, but I would just as gladly drink it.
I'm curious about the future of all these products because I can't really believe that the market could support so many products that essentially serve the same purpose (no calorie Coke). I took the time to find out the difference, but do most people really care?

Hey, thanks for the eval on the Cokes, I was wondering about that Diet Coke with Splenda thing, how it was. Now I want to go and try it.
