Default Diet Coke Taste Test

I bought a can/bottle of each of these from the corner store today and tried them all out:

Diet Coke
Diet Coke w/ Splenda
Coke Zero

Diet Coke, as always, had a crappy chemicalish aftertaste.

Diet Coke w/ Splenda tasted sweeter and more like sugar without that aftertaste, but still kinda sucked.

Coke Zero tasted a little more like regular coke and also tasted more like sugar than Diet Coke, but still kinda sucked.

Overall, I thought all three drinks pretty much sucked. I am going to stick w/ my plan of just not drinking soda.

I am an avid consumer of Diet Coke, and recently conducted a similar test. Coke Zero indeed tasted the least bad. However, since I drink Diet Coke because I am addicted to it, not because I enjoy it, I will be sticking with my chemically Diet Coke. You are wise to keep this monkey off your back.

Have you tried the Pepsi One?

I like it much better than the Diet Coke w/Splenda.

Either way, I'm usually drinking Diet Mt Dew anyways...

You should have done a blind taste test.

If you like sprite, I suggest Sprite Zero or Diet Sprite. Both are good diet sodas.

Is diet mountain dew good? Obviously a subjective question, but I drink 2-3 cokes a day and it's catching up with me if you know what I'm sayin'... Would like to start drinking diet something if it's not horrible.
