I wonder if they tested it out on the UK, as most of the people here don't have any taste in food?

Like how Cadbury chocolate tastes like soy now, and only me and my mum noticed. I mean Cadbury wasn't the best in the first place, but if you buy a Twirl now for instance, it tastes like soy and it is gross. Soy lecithin never used to be an ingredient in chocolate.

Do you drink it like water or are you slowly stashing it away? :)

Coke Zero. I live on it.

OMG cherry coke zero!! :GA: I've been trying to drink less of it, so I've been buying sort-of-sodas. They're basically only carbonated water with citrus flavor, so no caffeine, sugar, or artificial sweeteners. They're rather refreshing and satisfy my want for something fizzy. :orly: I haven't noticed less caffeine in the evening has made any difference for me though.  :dunno:
I do the same.

I tried a new drink made by the 7Up company. It's fizzy lemonade with cucumber and mint. Really refreshing.

I have a bottle of tap water in the fridge, and ad stuff I like to that. Right now I have water with lemon and mint. Love some ginger with that too, but girl is not keen on that and it is not hot enough outside two have two bottles cooling and steeping.
I can do upside down chocolate moo things!

Coke Zero. I live on it.
I used to love it until they changed the recipe.
Didn't know they ever changed it.
Me neither, it's always been the same here. When I go out to eat and drink, I have regular Coke with ice - Coke Zero with ice is too watery.
Looked it up and they're test driving the new formula in the UK, as well as packing redesign. The name was also changed to coke zero sugar in the because of marketing research results showing 50% of people don't know coke zero had no sugar. The new formula and product labels will probably be making their way around soon.

Interesting, so they're using us as guineapigs. Well, unless you love Diet Coke and that awful aftertaste - buy a lot Coke Zero and stash it. It tastes revolting now. It really is a completely different flavour. I don't understand why they ruined it. I can't say in words what a terrible flavour it is.
Maybe it will be a big enough flop in the UK and they'll give up on it. Can understand the logic behind the name change, and the packing re-design looks nice, but not sure what's the point of changing the recipe of a product that sells well.

I drink it. I do drink water sometimes (when out on walks nothing is better than cold water) but most of the time at home I drink Coke Zero.

It's really good. Every Christmas my boyfriend buys me all these packs of flavoured hot chocolate. This morning it's Maple Bacon. Surprisingly good.
