I drink caffeine free zero because I like the taste but I need to reduce my caffeine and sugar consumption.
I mean, there’s still the cola taste?
This is the perfect soda. All the flavor, with no drugs.
I don’t know what soda as caffeine to begin with.

Isn’t there a difference been “diet” and “zero”? Like doesn’t one use aspartame and the other use a different “fake” sweetener?
Diet coke retains the “new coke” recipe but with aspartame whereas coke zero is the “classic coke” recipe just with ace k and aspartame
I think, idk what I’m talking about I just like coca cola (the drink, not the company)
Edit: I have learned I had this backwards. Diet coke predates new Coke, and new Coke was a sugared version of that recipe. Not the other way around
Meanwhile people would take extra sugar extra caffeine and the OG coke too
Jolt Cola: All the sugar. Twice the caffeine.
Water that tastes fuckin well good? Sign me up
Tastes delicious and isn’t 250 cals a bottle you nerd.
I mean it’s not far off in some unfortunate circumstances. I remember years ago I’ve heard of towns in Mexico that lack clean drinking water and people were drinking Coke because of the water it contained. Idk why, but that really stuck with me.
Edit: I think it was this article
Doesn’t the USA use the word “calories” sometimes for kilocalories in food? So they divide the actual amount of calories by 1000. They also round certain things down, so that when they say “zero calories”, the can can actually have “3600 calories”?
Yes, and then they have a whole thing about how under 5 kcal per serving can be rounded to zero because it’s negligible.
That’s why despite nobody on the planet having ever eaten a single tic tac at a time, the serving size is 1 tic tac. That’s only 4 kcal, so in the US they can call it a “calorie-free snack”
Rounding happens but no, you’ll find nothing when that kind of delta and it’ll be of zero consequences.
kCal is a normal measurement in the UK too. I think anything being 4 kCal is probably negligible
4 kCal is a lot, around twice what a normal person needs per day. There is cal (small calorie) and Cal (large calorie), 1 Cal is 1000 cal or 1 kcal, 1 kCal would be 1000 kcal or 1 Mcal.
Coca-cola famously tried to sell bottled tap water in the UK as Dasani, but they abandoned it after they were very quickly exposed and ridiculed.
Honestly sometimes you just want something for hydration and has a bit of flavor don’t get me wrong I love water but you know sometimes you want something that safety without having to worry about calories or caffeine.
Yes, but no. In this fucked up world some zeros are bigger than others.
Can is full of water
I’m pretty sensitive to caffeine but I like soda, so I drink this. Mostly water and decaf coffee, though.
