    I have 1-2 cans of Diet Coke every day... so I'm going to say yes.

    If those are your two options, go with A.

    That being said, Coke Zero is zero calorie of course, but you're still dealing with artificial sweeteners...

    I personally don't drink soft drinks very often but if i do (like when i go to the movies) I drink pepsi zero...
    If i was you... I would drink it... and then don't buy anymore... it isn't going to kill you... but there is no real benefit to it either..

    I drink a pint or so of Diet Coke every day. Personally I don't have an issue with artifical swettner and I enjoy it with a ton of ice alongside my evening meal.

    For me, I do my best to stay away from artificial sweeteners and processed foods in general. So soda in general is a no go for me. If I want a sweet drink, I have a fruit smoothie made with almond milk and OJ.

    It just depends on what your current goal is. Mine is to get healthy, and they say you are what you eat, so why would I put fake sweetness in my body?

    And to me, anything that I feel is 'pressuring' me to be consumed, should be conquered instead. :D

    I generally don't drink diet sodas, pretty much any soda for that matter. But, sometimes, as in rarely, I get a hankering for a Diet Coke. The only time I ever have it is at the movie theatre...small diet coke does the trick.
