DIet Cherry Coke

Post by **feedback** » Fri Mar 10, 2006 9:44 am

If you really want to drink pop, but without the 200+ calories per can, get something made with sucralose (splenda). It's sugar + chloride ions, it's completely non-nutritious meaning your body doesn't break it down or store it, it will go right through you. If you drink a ton, you might get diarrhea or something, but it's better than being a fat munt or getting cancer.

Isn't that what Coke/Pepsi Zero contains in part (multiple artificial sweeteners)?

Goes through you like nothing at all, except for the caffeine.

The new diet coke recipe here uses sucralose. I haven't tried it yet though, as I don't usually drink pop.

Americans, please leave the thread, this has nothing to do with your long standing cherry diet coke. It tastes nothing like the American version whatsoever. Also fuck your country for seeling rootbeer when we can't get it here.

You haven't had root beer until you've gotten some homebrewed shit from a county fair

I believe in excessive amounts yes. Moderation is always wise, but I guess some people just can't live without pop.
