MMMM, the taste of metal.

My store sells Coke from Mexico. If there's one thing Mexico does right, it's Coke sold with pure cane sugar.
I also drink Faygo for work. It's the official drink of Insane Clown Posse!

Aspartame’s the best tasting artificial sweetener. I don’t taste any metal at all.

I’ve grown to like the flavored sparkling water with no sweeteners. They must be ice cold when you drink them. Love the ginger flavored one.

It tastes like metal and gives me a headache. But I’ve only accidentally tried it twice. I don’t want to be ingesting an excitotoxin.

Yeaahhhhhhhhh!!!
Aspartame, the nectar of the Gods. Sucralose taste like used band-aids.
Now if they only bring back the 24 ounce bottle.

Aspertame is bad for you. (Methanol is bad for you, and aspertame is metabolized into other chemicals, including methanol.)
Shame on Pepsi for putting methanol in people (who really should know better, but sadly do not. Yet.)

You are exactly right, aspartame is very bad for you.

Yes. People try alternatives to sugar, but I think you can’t have too much of any sweetener. But I wouldn’t have any aspartame, sorbitol, saccharin, cyclamate, etc.
To: laplata
I’ve been eating aspartame for years. It’s been key to improving my health.

Nasty stuff, any of those sweeteners. If I have a diet pop after not tasting one for a few weeks, the chemical taste is overwhelming - that should give me a clue to stay away.

Splenda (sucralose) tastes better.

These fake sugars are true neurotoxins. Who the HELL wants to end life with Alzheimers or Parkinsons?? If you have to drink soda, stick with sugar.

I gave up sodas years ago because they affect bone density. I prefer sweet tea anyway and use a sweeter callled Ideal that is 0 calories. I guess others agree that it tastes best because I sometimes find it sold out while the other brands have not. HEB is the only store Ive found it at so far.
To: nickcarraway
Hard to see the benefits to society of diet drinks - all I see is fatter and fatter people drinking them.
