Comment on Prices are out of control
dingus@lemmy.world 16 hours agoI hear this but I don’t understand. All diet soft drinks taste absolutely disgusting to me. I’ve had both Coke Zero and Diet Coke and both have that disgusting fake sugar aftertaste.
I either get non-Diet soft drinks or I go sparkling water. I can’t do that fake sugar shit. It’s nasty.
But the one exception for me is that I put fake sugar in my coffee. The bitter aftertaste of the coffee helps mask the aftertaste of the fake sugar.

ah man to me coke zero has this different flavor it almost tastes like black pepper or something? some kind of zip or zest. while diet coke is def the sweetest. regular coke now (after drinking diet soda for over a decade) or any corn syrup based soda leaves a weird aftertaste that i hate. but when i was younger i hated diet taste! haha
