The ones that have that symbol are considred Strictly kosher and a Rabbi is usually present to oversee.Otherwise it's just indicated with a K.

Diet Coke was also not developed to taste like Regular Coke- it was meant to taste like a different soda (which is why Coke Zero tastes more like regular Coke). And when it was introduced, Diet Coke sold like gangbusters and then Coca-cola freaked out because regular Coke was not gaining sales and then introduced New Coke, which, after Iran Contra, was worst decision made by people in power of the 1980's.

I might put it above Iran Contra, actually. I've drunk a lot of Coke in my life.

I miss C2. Tasted just like Coke with half the calories.

Of course, as long as Coca-cola doesn't mess with Fresca, I'll continue to patronize the company. Fresca is the single greatest diet soda ever to exist in the history of the world, and I don't think I'm biased when I say that.

I can't stand diet sodas, but I have to agree with you GR that
Fresca is pretty damn good. It's the only diet I will drink, I Like
the peach and the original, the cherry is ok.

I've never met any diet drink that I could tolerate, I don't care what artificial sweetner is in them. All of them are horrible.

In reading this, I'm floored by the amount of colas that some drink in a day. I don't drink pepsi or coke 3 times in a week.

The only time I will drink it, in a more steady fashion is when driving 10 to 12 hours. That's when I'll break out the pepsi, or better yet, mountain dew, with even more caffiene. But even then, I'm still sipping.

And I love raw sugar in my coffee. Good stuff.

I survive on plain black coffee, orange and apple juice and beer.
I think at most I drink 4-5 cans a week.

I've tried the peach and the cherry, but the original is still my favorite. It's always a treat when I can find it in a bodega.

I haven't had any kind of soda since 1993. Even diet sodas...that stuff is the worst thing in the world for you, especially women. The carbonation eats away at the calcium in your bones.

I am proof that man can live on water and beer alone...:D

It also can cause skin problems, something one doesn't want to contend with.

I have a friend that is addicted to Diet Mountain Dew, its unreal. She drinks it from the time she gets up, until she goes to sleep. Awful addiction.

thats the way I am with diet pepsi...

Oh my goodness, was I ever a Diet Pepsi addict as a teenager. It kept my alcohol consumption to a minimum- I was legendary among my friends for wandering around parties with my bottle of Diet Pepsi while they were vomiting up Fuzzy Navels.

I just bought some of the Kosher coke and it tastes kind of funny. LOL

I think I like the unhealthy high fructose corn syrup better. :o

coke zero is made with different artificial sweeteners. the aftertase of zero imo is not nearly as bad as with diet coke, which i can't stand. the twang is horrible.

i don't drink soda. most diet drinks are awful too. but i will occasionally have a coke zero--maybe 3-4 a year and i'm not exaggerating. but diet green tea citrus flavor is pretty good--and green tea is good for you. i have one of those every day now.

as for coffee, i do half caff with sugar free french vanilla creamer, no other sweetener as the creamer is plenty sweet enough. other than that, water all day and the occasional bacardi silver or glass of wine.

Yeah the Coke Zero ain't bad, doesn't have the terpentine taste of regular Diet Coke.
