I don't like most diet "fountain" drinks, but when it comes to canned I prefer Diet Pepsi. However, you asked about Diet Coke or Coke Zero and of those two: Coke Zero hands down. Diet Coke has an after taste.0

Actually, the studies have been thoroughly canvassed here by some very knowledgeable people and, while there may not be an amazing positive effect, they also don't hinder weight loss, so if having a Coke Zero for no calories rather than a Coke with 250 calories keeps you in a deficit, have at it.
Absolutely agree.0 -
Coke Zero. Diet coke tastes disgusting to me and always has, even though my mom always kept the house stocked full of the stuff growing up. Although if I really have a craving, I'll have a mini-can of regular Coke and just count the calories. It's too delicious.0

I bought a diet coke today and my daughter about had a fit and took it away from me.
She said she wont let me add cancer to my list of problems. Anyone know ANYONE who has gotten cancer from a diet coke? Cause I dont..

Both delicious and refreshing. And zero calories. I go back and forth but I find if I am getting a fountain drink I prefer diet coke and if out of a can I prefer coke zero.0 -

No one asked you.
I much prefer Zero. I preferred Pepsi Max until I realized that one of the energy drink components in it (guarana, which they've taken out, or ginseng) was giving me heart palpitations. I also really liked Diet Pepsi until they put Splenda in it. I'm glad they've put out a classic version, now.
Weird, Pepsi Max has never had that in it here. Mountain Dew doesn't have caffeine here either.
Where are you? Pepsi max has ginseng and MTN dew caffeine here in Canada
Australia. I don't think there are any non-cola soft drinks (aside from energy drinks like Red Bull etc) that have caffeine. And Pepsi Max definitely doesn't have any ginseng either. That actually explains why it tasted so weird when I was in the US.
Fun fact - We also have Sprite, label looks the same - totally different drink.
I had recently seen a post on Tumblr that what we call Sprite here you guys call lemonade. Now I want to know what Sprite is!
Yup, Sprite here is what we call lemonade. It's a clear fizzy sweet drink that tastes like... well, not a lot. Not lemons. And it isn't lemon/lime like in the US. I'm actually struggling to describe what it tastes like and think of a US equivalent.
Over sweet fake lemon! I remember that.0 -
Definitely Coke zero0

Vimto. I don't know why I've been wanting it recently. It reminds me of my childhood and was sold in these small glass bottles. At some point when I was a child they stopped selling it, and I haven't had it since. I'm not really a "browser" at stores, I just go and buy whatever I need, but I believe I might have seen it somewhere. If it really is Vimto I'm going to get one. I might find it too sweet now that I'm a grown up, but hey, at least I will scratch that itch.
Back to coke. Neither. I'm not a big fan of coke and coke-like drinks (the brownish black stuff), but I would drink it if I had no other choice. When I have a choice, it's 7up free.0 -

No, they are simply different from YOURS. I have always preferred Diet Coke. I'd rather drink water, or most anything, if there is only Diet Pepsi offered. Ugh.0 -
Coke Zero but now I must search for this cherry type!0

@arya8 I've never found bottles of Cherry Coke Zero, only 12 oz cans. Wal-Mart, Homeland, and Reasor's all have 12-pack's for less than $5. I normal swing by Sonic for a Coke Zero with cherry flavor added in but that's 80 calories. The cans have 0 calories and aren't as sugary sweet but still super yummy!0

Thanks for letting me know! Next time I go to walmart, I'll search for it.0
