Huh? The new Coke Zero is absolute garbage. I swear they released an intentionally bad product with a bunch of hype so that they can get away with scrapping the product line without any consumer backlash. The whole point of Coke Zero was to taste more like the regular stuff, not less.

Something like this. New zero is so fucking bad that $1 store brands are better. Maybe the profit margin was too low so they want to get rid of it and just have diet coke again? Dropping it outright would have too much backlash, so they change the formula to be worse and wait for consumers to drop it.

If by "bite" you mean a garbage metallic taste which the entire point of the product line was NOT to have that, then sure.

Don't really drink soda super often either, tried it at my friend's house the other day and it was pretty decent. The full sugar is still the tastiest (especially the mexican version)

When you get older you can't handle sugar as easily, it doesn't taste the same anymore.

Its why you drink diet and zero sugar drinks when you get older.

Coke Classic is the closest we have to original recipe Coca-Cola. New Coke (from 80s) was based on the Diet Coke formula. Diet Coke is a completely different formula, even if you replace aspartame with sugar (yielding New Coke, which is availbale from time to time and permanently in American Samoa). New coke was cancelled for economic reasons, as the company figured that people who like the Diet Coke/New Coke flavor would just drink Diet Coke. Coke Zero, however, is based on the "original" Coke formula, with tweaks to make it more Coke-y. It is a superior cola for that very reason.

This is the truth. Though to be honest myself, sometimes when I'm doing roadside preaching I need to pull out my pocket Coca-Cola catechism to get the part about Samoa right.

>Coke Zero, however, is based on the "original" Coke formula, with tweaks to make it more Coke-y. It is a superior cola for that very reason.
But the latest reformulation fails on that front. It WAS the superior Coke without calories until this most recent tweak that turns it into a worse tasting drink that's even more obviously a diet soda that Diet Coke. It genuinely feels like a self-sabotaging move and I'll be damned if it doesn't lead to them giving the product range the guillotine in the end. Too many companies nowadays are consolidating their product ranges; Coca-Cola is probably no exemption, but even their worst-selling products have huge followings just due to their sheer market size.

New conspiracy theory: Coke sabotaged the new Coke Zero in order to turn fans away from it so they could axe it.
