Why is Diet Rite ok?It's the sweetner, Splenda. Besides the diet cola, there are many flavors (in plastic bottles) to choose from.

Why is Diet Rite ok?If you are looking for a really great (IMO) drink and the water that all people recommend is boring you to death maybe you should try "Fruit2O". It's just water, with a teeny amount of fruit flavoring and sweetened by Splenda. It's really terrific and I'm sure that drinking a lot of water is good for you.
The taste is really subtle and it has a ton of different flavors.

As others have intimated, Diet Rite is good for Atkins because it does not contain Nutrasweet. Aspartame (the generic name for Nutrasweet) causes a very similar metabolic reaction as sugar and keeps you from burning fat.
Also, does anyone know if there's an organized "freepers on Atkins" group? I just started the diet a few days ago (already in heavy lipolysis according to the ketosticks) and was wondering just how many of you out there are also on it.
