Never trusted aspartame/acesulfume and never will. I don't like the taste, and I hate that alternative sweeteners made it harder to find classic sugar drinks somehow.
I mean, just drink sugar in moderation, a few cokes a month never killed anyone and they actually taste good. It only becomes a problem when you start to chug down liters of this stuff every single day, and by then I think it's very unhealthy whether it contains sugar or not.
- selectodude 4y agoDiet coke tastes better and doesn't leave a sugary film on my teeth.
- pastacacioepepe 4y agoMy point was more about diet coke having dubious health benefits (compared to regular coke), and that one can't use the lack of sugar as a justification to drink liters of diet coke daily.
- kbelder 4y agoSame boat. I stopped diet drinks entirely when Nutrasweet came out; drinking a few ounces of a drink with that in it would give me a rapid and severe headache. It made me suspicious of the whole business of artificial sweeteners. Besides, they all taste horrible.
