I'm looking for an explanation as to why anyone chooses it over other diet sodas.

    Not only does aspartame rot your taste buds, it also rots your brain.

    Does it rot your taste buds? They die every 10 days...so sure why not?

    As for the diet soda arguments...I dunno, the only soda I've ever liked is the cancerous energy kind. I'm totally addicted to Soda Stream Energy.

    If you're looking for an explanation as to why people choose it over other diet sodas...

    the reason i pick Diet Coke is because it's the most commonly available sugarfree refillable beverage offering at the restaurants i visit. if more places served Diet Barq's, that would be my soft drink of choice

    Coke > Pepsi
    Diet Pepsi > Diet Coke

    ^ This, typically. I think they taste pretty much the same, but regular Pepsi (especially in a can) has this like... tinny taste to it. I can't really describe it. For the most part, though, I think they're both pretty much on-par taste wise. But give me McDonald's Coke any day because I swear to god there's crack in it. (as a former McD's manager, I *can* confirm it is different than what you get in the can/bottle, I'm just not entirely sure how.)

    As for me... I'll drink pretty much any diet besides Dew or anything fluorescent. I can't get over drinking bromine. Yes, the levels are low enough that it *probably* won't hurt me, but pesticide isn't generally something I want to consume.

    ^^^^ This, on the other hand, is pure unadulterated genius.

    I'm with all y'all on the half cherry coke zero, half vanilla coke zero.

    Of sodas I'll drink Coke, Coke Zero, Diet Coke, Pepsi, Cherry Dr Pepper. Not necessarily in that order. Sometimes Fanta or Sunkist or 7Up (plain or cherry) will pop up. But Diet Pepsi? It needs to go die, painfully, in a ditch. There. Said it.
