Pepsi Max vs. Coke Zero

Enonoid

Any preferences or should I not be drinking either?

Neither- stick with water.

I say neither but if you must have one, I'd say Coke Zero, less sugar to me.

We are a Diet Pepsi household but there is something off to the taste of Pepsi Max (ginseng or the extra caffine perhaps) so I would go for Coke Zero if those are your only 2 choices.

I like them both, but Pepsi Max has more caffeine! Mmmmm....Caffeine!

Most on here will say don't drink either but I drink at least one a day. Keeps me sane with eating better overall and holds off my appetite sometimes along with keeping my sweet tooth in check. To answer your question, I like both but if I had to choose it would be Pepsi Max. Man, it tastes like the real thing!! Drink up!!

I like them both to be honest.

They are both gross... Drink your water and splurge with a normal coke or pepsi every once and a while

The gingseng and other crap in Pepsi Max makes me jittery and I don't like the way it tastes, so definately Coke Zero for me!

daddiod

I am addicted to PEPSI MAX.....

Cherry Coke Zero is my favorite!

Neither. skipping soda all together (diet soda or not ) will increase your weight loss. Especially if you replace it with tons of water.

I do diet rite because it doesn't have aspertame. It's also 0 calories, sugar, carbs and so on. However, it also doesn't have caffeine...which has been an adjustment to say the least.

Coke Zero if you have the need for something other than water. I don't drink it every day but probably have a couple over the course of a week.

Coke Zero! On some days if you cut me I would bleed that stuff but for the most part I try to keep my consumption low. But I really enjoy a nice cold can.

RikanSoulja

Neither lol but I'm a Pepsi type of guy so if I'm going to drink one I'd go for the Max

Whichever is cheaper.

^^^ This. While diet pepsi is my first choice, coke zero is my second choice. I wasn't a fan of pepsi max. Tasted strange to me.

I don't drink coffee and need the caffeine, but I go with Diet Mt Dew. I try to stay away from dark colored beverages. However, I do like a Cherry Coke Zero every now and then with a LOT of water!

Coke Zero just because I hate Pepsi. I drink one Coke Zero a day to wake me up in the morning because I don't drink coffee, the rest of the day I drink lots of water. Drinking either one will not hinder your weight loss

I like that too!

I personally am trying to kick my soda habit (I hate diet drinks so the only way for me is original coke lol) and I am just drinking one 5-Hour Energy everyday. But then again, a lot of people will say that's bad for you too. Choose the lesser of the evils and whatever suits you best

I'm addicted to Diet Coke and refuse to give it up.
I've tried many times and can't.

Pepsi max makes me deathly ill. Love diet dr. pepper. Tastes like the real thing!

msjamartin

Use to really like Pepsi One but can't hardly get that anywhere. I'm a Pepsi person myself for the full fledge sugar filled drink but I don't really like any of the Diet Pepsi products currently out there so if I splurge I do Coke Zero.

I know I'm weird. I like Real Pepsi and "diet" Coke. I don't really like Real Coke or "diet" Pepsi.

Then again, I only allow myself to drink any of the cola sodas when I'm at the movies. So maybe once a month.

I've pretty much cut out soda completely now. I used to LOVE Coke Zero, and I have been absolutely shocked & pretty proud (*pats self on back) that I only have soda maybe every two weeks or so now. That was a big deal for me, and I was able to quit without getting the headaches that I used to get when I tried to quit. I upped my water in-take before cutting out soda & then weaning myself off. It worked really well for me!

If you are going to drink the soda I would recommend Coke Zero. I've never been a Pepsi person. I've always preferred Coke or Dr. Pepper. I also like Dr. Pepper 10. It's 20 calories for the bottle or 10 for a can (I believe). I have heard bad things about artificial sweeteners and things in sodas. I've heard that it's better to just drink the regular soda if you are going to drink soda, but I don't really care for the taste of regular soda anymore after having the Diet/Zero ones for so long. When I want a little caffeine or just something other than water, flavored water, or whatever I will usually go for the Coke Zero or Dr. Pepper 10. Anyway, my 2 cents given. Good luck to you!

Neither of them has any sugar at all.

A beverage that has zero calories cannot contribute to weight gain. Eliminating it cannot contruibute to weight loss.
