coke zero?

Options
so is coke zero like diet coke? like they've taken out the sugar and put something else in. or really no sugar and no sugar substitutes either. tbh I rarely drink coke but was just wondering.

    It's the equiv to pepsi max. It tastes better than diet coke anyway.

    Yes it is. Diet Coke was seen as a `Girls' drink, so Coca Cola wanted to bring out a `Blokes' drink. Thus Coke Zero was born. Apparently all they have changed is the sweetner they use, but this is only hearsay. I prefer Coke Zero as long as it's cold.

    apparently aspartame is used to fatten pigs or something like that, a friend that works in laboratory told me that...said it was used in their feed.

    I hate Coke Zero. Whilst I drink Pepsi Max (given a choice between regular/diet/max) I'd rather drink Diet Coke than zero/regular.
    It's basically like Diet Coke but more sickly/sweeter.
    TBH I thinks it's targeted at would be diet coke drinkers who'd feel a bit cissy drinking a "diet" drink.
