The Sun newspaper did a comparison between all the different types of coke. The difference between Diet coke and Coke zero was one different e number.

Personallty, its not bad, I like both. However, Pepsi Max Lemon + lime, now that stuff rocks.

Ok, i know this drinks are full of ****, but hey, everyone needs a vice of some sort ?

Don't know about your supermarkets but Coke Zero is 2x the price of Pepsi max in our Tesco! Plus for the first 2 weeks Zero was lauched they didn't have any stock of Pepsi Max...

full fat is the best.

Diet, why drink it, it's like drinking air.

Coke Zero is nothing like they said it would be. Supposed to taste like for like to full fat but just not have any sugar in it.

like hell it does, taste bloody horrible.

Full fat and nothing else.

Isn't that the idea?

I heard it was mainly a marketing ploy, Diet Coke attracts females, Coke Zero would attract males.

Doesn't full fat coke have something like about 20 spoonfuls of sugar per glass?

And diet contains cancer causing chemicals I thought?

Asda sells vodka and coke in the same bottle, its quite nice and does the trick, even if it is a tad on the exspensive side

Paul, I'm with you on where you are coming from. Why drink absolute shíte when it's properties are almost equivalent to drinking Optimax.

I'll take water, any day.

Zero is pretty good, as is regular diet. I've even tried the caffine free stuff which is ok too. My fave at the moment is the diet black cherry and vanilla.

Doesn't really matter what you drink to be honest. It isn't the sugar that does the damage to your teeth, it's the acidic fizzy water, which is present in every type of coke! Causes severe enamel erosion which leads to lovely sensitive teeth and all manner of problems. All fizzy drinks are my dentist's pet hate. I think he is on a one-man crusade about them

I find all the diet fizzies leave a really nasty aftertaste which I presume is the sweeteners.
I'm a D&B, Cream Soda and Irn Bru fan (all non-diet).
Anyway a few spoonfuls of sugar gives you energy, everyone knows that
