I have no idea how they do it, but Coke Zero tastes much closer to non-diet coca-cola.

The originial Diet Coke is sweetened with Aspartame (nutrasweet). Coke Zero is sweetened with a blend of aspartame and acesulfame potassium. It's supposed to taste more like regular coke because of the blend of the two. Chemically, they're almost identical.

It's more a marketing thing... without the word "diet" in it, it appeals to a different market. Some are fooled, but not me. HAHA

There are a lot of chemical compounds that are similar molecularly, doesn't mean anything one little change can make it toxic.

Water and Hydrogen Peroxide are very similar molecules, no difference there huh? LOL

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.
