Hi Friends!

This weekend at the lake, I discovered my Dad drinking "Diet Rite, Zero" in the tangerine flavor. I had to try it myself, and to my surprise.. it tasted JUST like a Sunkist!

Here's the facts...
0 Calories
0 Sugars
0 Sodium
0 Carbs
NO Aspertame
Flavored with Splenda

Is it seriously too good to be true?! A soda that tastes like a normal soda, no funky after-taste, with THOSE kinds of nutrition facts?!?! I'm hooked! Anybody had these, or seen a downfall in them?

    Flavored with Splenda
    I have seen posts on here stating the opinion that splenda is unnatural and nobody should drink it etc etc. Then again, there are people on here who are of the opinion that all manufactured food and all carbonated drinks should be avoided like the plague.

    I say go for it and enjoy it! :smile:

    Sounds wonderful! I shall get some!. I don't think splenda is a problem unless you are putting 6 packets in your coffee and drinking 8 sodas a day. We might found out it causes cancer in a few years, so might as well enjoy now, right?

    Zevia is good too. It has 0 everything and tastes great. Only catch is that its a little pricey and you have to get it from a Whole Foods type store
  • I'm currently hooked on Diet A&W. I've tried Diet Rite and can dig the taste.
