Regular tastes best if it's made with cane sugar.  But I switched to diet eons ago because of the calories.  Recently I've cut out even diet soda for the most part.  Going heavy on iced tea and water these days.

I rarely drink it, but when I do I get the regular stuff and not the sissy diet crap.

I drink diet, even though the sugared variety certainly tastes better. But I don't drink much coke actually.

I rarely drink them, but if I do it's with real sugar. Except Coca-Cola where I generally opt for the Coke Zero.

I don't often drink them - when I do it's full-fat because as much as anything I don't really have them often enough to know the difference or which I'd prefer :mellow:

How does Coke Zero taste so much better than Diet Coke, I wonder?  :hmm:

I don't drink soda (what I call 'pop') very often but when I do it's always diet.  I can't stand to drink sweet drinks like regular soda, sweet tea, etc. ... they make me feel sick.

I think once you get used to diet pop that's what you come to prefer.

Yup.

I'll take a diet over a regular any day of the week. Over here, the sugared type is way too sweet to be palatable anymore.

Me. :blush:

But it is not like I could drink the regular stuff much anyway.

I never drank diet until they released Zero, which tastes closer to the real thing. But I'd rather drink regular if I wasn't overweight.
