COCA COLA ZERO. anyone else tried it.

Yeah Coke Zero is pretty good... I'm the same, normal coke contains way 2 much sugar.
I only drink normal coke as a mixer.

I tried it and as Malakai has said, it tastes like coke but the after effect doesnt have that sugar 'hurts the back of my throat' feeling.
But as with most non sugar soft drinks it has phenalanline[sp] chemical in it which is very bad for people with rhumatic joint issues, so I try and steer clear. Im better off drinking regular coke but not by much. But yeah taste the same without the sugary after taste.

My g/f said the same thing. She reckons it tasted like Pepsi Max.
It's basically the Pepsi max of coke... Coke Zero is pretty good though. It's a much better drink than that Pepsi Samba crap (not that they compete in the same category).

Vanilla Coke is the best of the Coca Cola drinks....
Diet Coke is horrible, I'd rather drink diohrrea then that, and for that reason I fear Diet Vanilla is just the same turd with a hint of vanilla in it. Gonna have to try this Zero thing.

I'm quite a fan of coke zero. I'm usually a pepsi man through and through but coke zero tastes a lot better than pepsi max. Pepsi max tastes like it has too much sweetner in it.

I was talking with the guys at work about this, and our secretary said it tasted like flat Coke.
I was filling up at the servo the other day and my curiosity got me better of me, I got a 600ml bottle out the fridge. Took a mouthful... I couldn't throw it out the window, because I was doing 100km/h, and I didn't want to waste $2.80. It doesn't taste like flat Coke, it's got absolutely no taste at all. Even flat Coke tastes better than this crap. So it's fair to say I won't be buying it again...

I began Drinking Diet Coke when I got my braces (They're off now) and still drink it in place of normal Coke. I really like Diet Coke, I'am a seasoned drinker of the stuff now and I reckon that this Zero doesn't cut it. Its far too gassy for me and bloats me very quickly, making me feel yuck.
Having said that I gave it its final chance to impress me yesterday when I bought a thirty can carton of the stuff. I'll keep y'all posted. |
