    I can vacillate between Diet Pepsi and Diet Coke, but really prefer Diet Pepsi. I find it really refreshing. I usually buy Diet Coke though cuz my daughter hates Diet Pepsi, and she comes to visit every week. I find the flavored diet colas too sweet tasting. Like diet Dr. pepper and diet rootbeers once in a while.

    I enjoy diet pop (I noticed hardly anyone called it "pop".) My favorites are Diet Pepsi, Diet Dr Pepper and Diet A&W root beer. I don't drink it often, maybe 1-2 a week I'll have a can with my dinner. My absolute favorite pop is Mr. Pibb and I will only drink the original of that, no diet Pibb.

    I go back and forth because I have a mother from New York and a father from Michigan, so both soda and pop sound natural to me, haha.

    I call it pop IRL (Michigan). On MFP, I follow the thread when it comes to terminology ( . . . even to the point where people call every silly kind of challenging exercise HIIT ;) ).

    Michigan REPRESENT.

    I try to understand the context when people use certain words in threads too. When people talk about binge eating, I try to take it at face value even though I don't believe they've had a true binge, but are celebration eating or stress eating or boredom eating or multiples of the above.

    No, because I don't think the flavor is anywhere near as good as the syrupy originals. If I'm gonna indulge, I'm gonna indulge. I'm not going to drink some watered down version with a chemical aftertaste. (yes I know EVERYTHING is chemicals)

    I know I'm the weird one here, but I actually prefer the taste of aspartame sweetners in soda, lol. The pure sugery ones are just too much for me. But it has to be fountain or can. I hate the plasticy taste that comes off the bottled versions.

    I call it pop too. Soda sounds weird to me. I'm from Iowa.

    I do drink diet soda. Usually diet Ginger ale or diet coke. I drink it because I like it. It seems like a treat to sit down with a soda in the evening.

    I really hate the after taste of aspartame so I don't drink diet pop. I am addicted to Dr. Pepper and cream soda though so once in a while I save up the calories for one, usually just on the weekend. I wish we had mini cans of Dr. Pepper in Canada!

    There's a few options that don't use aspartame. Coke makes a diet option that uses Splenda ie sucralose.

    Coke Life is reduced calorie with Stevia and cane sugar also.
