If you had one glass of diet coke and one glass of normal....

norwegianwood

would you be able to tell the differnce after a sip? i'm just wondering, beacuse i wouldnt have a clue, but i know loads of people who claim they can....

PrettyInPunk

I can immediatly, the Full coke tastes far more sugery too me. I drink Diet Coke all the time so know the taste very well

thebigcheese22

yeah i cud def tell the difference!

now pepsi and pepsi max, thats a whole different kettle of fish...

BaconZombie

Coke > Coke Zero > Coke diet.

Mena

You'd need to have your taste buds removed to not taste the difference!

Moved from After Hours.

Delirium

Yep, can definitely tell the difference.

On a side note, is anybody else grateful that pepsi max tastes far better the normal pepsi! If I didnt know about insulin release and human lipid metabolism and carcinogenics, I'd swear they were cheating nature with pepsi max!

you jokin, world of difference. cant stand diet coke. take it from a coke addict

abelard

Absolutely, I'd know immediately.

The sweetness from Diet Coke tastes, almost, more artificial, if such a thing is possible when it comes to Coke!

I actually find Diet Coke repulsive compared to regular Coke.

used to hate diet coke, but now drink about 3 litres a day, might have a problem

There's a huge difference between Coke Zero and Diet Coke IMO - Zero actually tastes like Coke actually nicer I think. There's no aftertaste like in diet and you really can't tell it's sugar free. I can't drink Diet Coke anymore has to be Zero.

Dinkie

Yep! I also think diet coke from a can tastes better then diet coke from a bottle

It took me ages to learn to like diet coke after years of drinking the regular stuff.

Coke zero is quite nice though.

bocha

yep - easy. :P

took the words right outta my mouth , oh and pepsi too

Kenno90

great now i want a glass of coke (Diet)

Any true fan of the real thing can tell the difference. Diet and Coke zero are nothing compared to real coke. Just like the version over here does not taste as nice as the stuff in the UK.

MonicaBing

Yup, i can sooo tell the difference between the two, Real coke rocks, you cant bate nothing on a hot day but coke from a can, it just doesnt taste the same from the bottle:rolleyes:

thought u said 'tastes like pepsi' on first reading, i wouldnt be a big coke drinker, but prefer the taste of diet, it actually does taste more like pepsi, but then i hardly drink pepsi at all...

edit, is usually the vodka that im worried about,,,

Faith

You can definitely tell the difference. One tastes like drinking slightly dissolved sugar and hurts your teeth, the other doesn't.

seanybiker

huge differance. I rather the taste of diet coke.
Pepsi FTW though

TerrorFirmer

The difference is definitely huge, but I actually prefer Diet Coke - regular Coke is just far too sweet and sugary, as well as being full of **** - not that Diet Coke is healthy, or anything of the sort, but at least it won't make you fat.

The winner of 0 cal drinks is definitely Pepsi Max. Unbelievable.

rubadub

Huge difference, coke zero is far more similar but I can still get a different sensation with the "syrupy" feeling of regular coke.

Diet drinks also make you absorb alcohol quicker, so you get drunk on less, so you save money and take in way less calories.

Diet club orange is my fav diet drink. Still has 10-11% orange juice in it, so not sugar free, but keeps it really tasty.

MonicaBing

A wee treat to myself every now and again, Cold can of Coke, Bag of cheese n' Onion Tayto & a bar of Cadbury's Dairy Milk! How's that for keeping it Irish?:P

Oh actually what about Finches Rock Shandy? Jayz that'd knock the thirst outta ya..:p

tannytantans

I think you guys just don't realize that sweeteners harm your body much more than sugar does

Agreed. I drink, give or take, 4 litres of coke a day. I don't like Diet coke and refuse to drink it. I've actually cut down on my intake as it used to be about 6 litres a day.

tannytantans

Oh i know that the Diet Coke is by no means healthy.I meant good in a no calories way...

Also after my last post i had to go out and buy a bottle of coke!

PlayGirl

definitely can.. diet coke taste more like that fake sugar (splenda and stuff) than normal coke
