    You IDIOTS! Clear American beverage is for people who have Diabetes! Who has the choice of cutting down on Sugar or dying. It is not a sports drink or a drink for skinny people. You Skinny Sports Nuts, please DO NOT Drink any Clear American beverages. People who have Diabetes needs it to prevent us from dying. When you Skinny Sorts Nuts purchase Clear American beverage, it leaves less on the shelves for us to purchase. Half the time, I can't find it on the shelves. The major beverage makers won't make any diet beverage that taste good any more. the only other diet beverage that may be found on the shelves is Tab, but it is hard to find. I'd rather take my chances of dying from cancer after drinking 999,999,999 cans of Tab, than dying from Diabetes in a few years. I know, The World Is All About You!

    If it were specifically ONLY for diabetics, you'd buy it in the pharmacy.


    Ooh, the Golden Peach. So freaking yummy! In fact, this reminded me, I have one in my work fridge. Think I'll crack it open!

    I do notice I will get headaches from the aspertame if I drink more than one per day.

    I'm going to Walmart today (it's a rarity, I try to avoid them at all costs) and may have to check at least this flavor out

    Key Lime tastes exactly like Sprite to me. Not Diet Sprite...Sprite. I also like Fuji Apple and Mandarin Orange. Plus they are only 50 cents a liter!

    ETA: Another note - I can't stand it in the cans. Only in plastic bottles.

    Make sure to buy all of it so those with diabetes suffer (that is what this resurrection is about, isn't it?).

    But my dad will be home in two weeks so he can be saved by them!

    Found one that is Darth Vader shaped. The control lets you choose between the light side and the dark side. It just toasts the "Star Wars" logo text onto the toast though.

    This is one of the only flavors I've found that I like from this brand. Tastes like a dreamsicle.

    I agree with many of the above posts. Aspartame, in reasonable amounts, is harmless.

    My problem is with my husband's daily use of ELEVEN packets of Sucralose (brand name Splenda) in ONE cup of coffee!! He had to have a kidney removed 2 years ago (benign tumor) and I worry about the one he has left. Sucralose is fine, in *reasonable amounts* but I think 11 packets at once is UNreasonable.

    He clearly should give up coffee and just drink a Diet Coke (or a real one!) in the morning instead. About the same caffeine content in one. But - you know how husbands are. Can't nag them into good behavior ;)
