    Coke zero all the way.

    As a kid they used to have (normal) Pepsi vs Coke stands around, where you did a blind test.
    I learnt that I had to say I liked the one I didn't to get the free stuff :).

    You will probably get a 50/50 vote here, but I really like Pepsi Max.

    Just something I thought I would share- in the late 50's-early 60"s in my teens, the drink we loved was " bodgie blood" which was Coca Cola and strawberry flavouring with or without icecream! I tried it a few years ago and I still think it is good. Perhaps the idea for Cherry Coke came from this. :D

    I've lost around 50lb since may; I not only drink coke zero, but also other non-caffine fizzy drinks most of the time.
    So, certainly not for me. I do drink a lot, but generally don't like water.

    It may cause issues for some people - just as many other things can (dairy, nuts, etc.)

    I'm a Pepsi person although in the diet form. Diet Pepsi wasn't as popular in the UK as Coke and Diet Coke. Not that I drink much fizzy drinks now a days :laugh:

    And what about Pepsi MAX Cherry, cannot resist getting a bottle of that sweet tasting nectar when it's on offer at £1 a bottle at my local ASDA !

    Diet Coke all the way!

    I prefer it to ordinary coke and have always chosen it, even when I wasn't watching my food.

    Pepsi Max is too sweet for me, so Diet Coke.
    Hardly ever drink either now as I try to avoid Aspartame / NutraSweet.

    Pepsi Max. I allow myself a little soda every day but I drink like 90% water now.

    Well, Coke Zero has zero caffeine, zero calories, zero everything. Pepsi Max is LOADED with caffeine, but still has zero calories. I hate the taste of Coke Zero. Pepsi Max is awesome!!!

    Pepsi max has almost double the caffine and also has panax ginseng. So if you are looking for a little extra energy you chose the right one. I prefer the pepsi max taste myself.

    When I lived in the UK it was Diet Coke for me but since moving to the Netherlands and noticing the taste of Diet Coke is different to the UK I switched to Pepsi Max, Though when I'm in the UK to visit I always revert back to Diet Coke
