I bought this before I started SBD when I was an avid Coke drinker. It tasted awful so it sat in the back of my fridge. Well tonight I got thirsty and was sick of water so decided to taste it and yummm! It is amazing how good it tastes now that I havent had coke.

Just wanted to share in case anyone else might wanna give it a shot!

I absolutley love the diet cherry vanilla Dr. Pepper. I was afraid it would taste like cough syrup, the way diet cherry coke does. but was pleasantly suprised.

I*HEART* the stuff!! Try it with a bit of whipped cream for a mock float!

I love diet cherry coke!!! you really think it tastes like cough syrup???

I think this stuff is better than diet cherry coke. Will try the mock float. Thanks!

Isn't funny how different our taste buds are? I can't stand the lemon flavored coke either, to me it leaves an alka seltzer like aftertaste. I do like the lime flavored coke and vanilla coke. I think the lemon pepsi is a smidgen bit better, but still easily passed up. What's really funny about that is I add lemon juice to my diet coke all the time when I'm at a restaraunt.

But to answer your question, yes, I think that cherry coke taste like cough syrup. Or maybe it's the aftertaste, I'm not sure.

That's why they make so many different varieties, to satisify everyone!

I used to think all diet soda tasted awful period, but now that I dont have coke or juice it tastes like such a treat. I make sure to only have it once or twice a day so its like a treat for me and I feel like I am cheating. In these 4 days I have wrote down everything I eat and I swear sometimes it feels like I am cheating and not on a diet plan when I really am. After trying so many diets and hearing this kind of talk from everyone except me its great to finally say I think something is working!

Has anyone else tried the new Coke Zero? I swear it tastes like real coke.

Who else remembers when there was only Tab? I STILL say there's nothing quite like a REALLY cold Tab out of a cooler on the REALLY hot beach. (sigh) Baby oil on your skin and lemon juice in your hair. Guess I'm showing my age!

I think Diet Coke with Splenda takes like real coke but I prefer the taste of Diet! I guess I have just gotten used to it.

I love Diet Cherry Coke and Diet Vanilla Coke so I tried the Diet Cherry Vanilla DR. Pepper. But it still tasted like Dr. Pepper which is sweeter than I like so I'll stick with Diet Coke. I rarely drink soda anyway or else I would just open a can of eat and try mixing it myself.

I mainly drink hot tea at work (it may be almost 100 outside but it is 70 inside) and water at home (sometimes Crystal Light Lemonade).

Probably the one thing I didn't indulge in was soda... I do like the Zero Coke.. Will have a glass once in awhile... I like Ice tea mainly...sometimes crystal lite lemonade...
NOW MY DH on the otherhand, he's got at least a 6 pack a day diet pepsi habit that I wish he would break!

OH MY Gosh... TAB, yep, my mom and dad would get a case a week of that.. We were allowed 1 or maybe 2 cans a week ...Lemon juice and baby oil... I think you and I are around the same baby boomer age!

Leslie, you really are showing your age. But I'm right there along with you. I remember when baby oil was the favorite sun tan lotion, you'd slowly cook in the sun to get that nice deep burn because it would turn into a tan eventually. And the lemon juice! Yes I remember. Mom always wondered why we were going through the jar of lemon juice so often in the summer.

Tab <gag> never did aquire that taste. I wasn't drinking diet soda at that time. I was so glad when other diet sodas came out on the market. My sister always said, "just drink it, you'll get used to it." Maybe I have strange taste buds?

here's kinda a funny story... My sister's friend bailed out of going to the shore with her with 2 of our guy friends.. so my mom said I had to go at the last minute..So here I was cute pudgette, with GHASTLY white hairy legs. So one of the boys says he heard if you mix Iodine with Baby oil, you'll tan fast...
Here I was with GHASTLY orange hairy legs...
a real beach beauty.

Sarah -- lemon diet coke tastes to me, like lemon Pledge would if you spritzed the furniture polish in your mouth!!!

I don't care for the Diet Cherry Vanilla Dr. Pepper, but love Diet Cherry Coke! And lime! And Reg. Diet. Dr. Pepper!

Leslie - totally!!! I remember and I am only 27!

I love Diet coke with Lemon...that is my fav!!!

Watch out for the whipped cream, okay? If you're getting the kind in the can, it has sugar. Go for Cool Whip Free instead, and stick to 2 Tbsp.

I love the Diet CV Dr. Pepper too...but boy does it have a lot of red food coloring in it!

I also adore both Diet Vanilla Pepsi, Diet Coke with Lime, and Diet Vanilla Coke. I don't like either of the lemon varieties, though I love a slice of lemon in a diet coke.
