They taste completely different to me. (Both Diet Coke and Coke Zero.) Admittedly, I haven't tried the apparent new formula you mentioned, though.
I've never had any drink with an artificial sweetener that I've enjoyed the taste of, and I've tried a ton of different ones. I now just choose between sugary drinks or water based on if I want to treat myself or not.
- _qua 5y agoI could certainly easily tell the difference between the first iteration of Coke Zero and regular Coke but the new formula (I just googled and it looks like they changed it last year https://www.nytimes.com/2021/07/14/business/coke-zero-change.html https://www.nytimes.com/2021/07/14/business/coke-zero-change...) is very similar to regular Coke. I'm someone who likes good food and can usually identify most of the spices and ingredients in a meal by taste and smell, but for whatever reason, to me, Coke Zero is almost identical to the real deal. I'm a bit surprised by the reaction here because I had incidentally just talked about it with some co-workers the other day and we were all on the same page about the minimal taste difference.
