I keep telling the guys at Coke to give us Diet Coke with Lime and Splenda. Nothing yet.

I guess the fridges are going to get stinky...either that, or people aren't baking....

Nothing beats this stuff.

[FreedomFarmer]

Empty calories and no nutritional value. Rather like talking to a socialist.

[radiohead]

I don't care what they say - Diet Pepsi, breakfast of champions.

Demand is slipping because people can't find this:

They saw the handwriting on this wall a long time ago, that's why the big soda companies have been expanding into non-soda beverages and even non-beverages. Check out these products lists, I don't think they're worried about soda's market share very much.

Boy! Do I feel guilty. Around Valentine's Day a report came out which showed a link between aspartame and cancers such as leukemia and lymphoma. I immediately stopped with the Diet Coke (a little more than 2 liters a day). Now, this, coke has lost market share. It's my fault. It's all my fault.

Diet Rite, baby! Still get my cola flavor, but no sugar or caffeine!

Every year before Super Bowl the soda manufacturers increase there prices. I've seen $3.68 for a 12 pack! They didn't charge that much when Coca Cola contained the essence of the coca plant! I realize the gasoline prices have hit food prices, ($2.00 for a loaf of bread!) but I'll drink tap water first.

Change the Lightbulbs and this cost will be brought back under control!

I find sports and energy drinks to not be tasty at all.

I try to drink as much water as I can, but I will always have pop as well.

I can't stand it when people call it soda...that reeks of New England elitism.

It is POP, dang it. :)

You mean canned burps are fading as a fad?
A buck a can have anything to do with it?
Maybe the obesity factor exceeded the rehydration factor?
Now that GatorAde doesn't taste like dead fish with cherry syrup anymore it's finally making a dent in sales?

Can we just go back to water, wine or beer?

How come there's no cranberry soda?

[coconutt2000]

Energy drinks are making a big dent in the sale of sodas at bars?

[Looking4Truth]

Great substitute for soda without all the artificial crap.

1 part any kind of pure fruit juice, 1 part club soda or sparkling water. You've got to mix it, but it's worth it.

[PJ-Comix]

I've been drinking more wine lately. Has anybody noticed that wine prices seem to be dropping? I pick up on the bargain wines.

[mass55th]

I was always a drinker of regular Pepsi until about 2 years ago when I was diagnosed with sugar, and now drink different flavors of diet Pepsi. I don't care for their diet Pepsi cola. I prefer their diet Pepsi Twist, Vanilla, Wild Cherry, Lime and Pepsi One. I also drink A&W diet Root Beer and diet Creme Soda.

Coke could prolly make as much money selling WATER as it does selling sugar water...

Yahoo! Mountain Dew!

That's my favorite.
