What reason do I have to not sip on diet soda as opposed to it's regular calorie filled counterpart? Literally tastes the same, but has 0 calories. What's the catch lads?

Because aspertame causes cancer. If you think chemical sweetener is better than natural sugar fucking kill yourself.
Ethan Phillips
Your body doesn’t know what to do with fake sugar, just like it doesn’t know how to handle the toxic amounts in soda/overly sugary foods
Jacob Gutierrez
It tastes like shit, user.
Cooper Hernandez
>tastes the same
Do you chain smoke or just don't have a tongue? Because they do taste different.
Gavin Kelly
If you were that concerned with calories in soda, wouldn't you drink soda water instead?
Alexander Mitchell
This. It's harder to burn off the fake sugar than normal sugar, and the fake stuff can even make you more hungry/thirsty.

Especially if he has so little taste that he can't detect a difference between diet and regular soda.
Samuel Richardson
I know aspartame is deadly but is sucralose just as bad? I've been wondering about that
Chase Bennett
natural sugar is also a chemical sweetener
>what's self control
Daniel Hernandez
Keep in mind it still impacts your blood sugar levels

It does not literally taste the same. Why the fuck do people believe this? Are your taste buds fried? Have you had a stroke?
James Harris
There isn't a catch op.
Aspartame is the most studied food ever. People just don't like it because they see it as unnatural and therefore witchcraft.
The only study I've seen that suggests any kind of ill effect is that when your body tastes it it prepares to process lots of calories from sugar. When it doesn't get those you get hungrier and eat more, leading to weight gain.
There's a lot of bullshit in this thread. Ffs, burning off fake sugar? Things burn because they contain energy. Fake sugar doesn't contain those calories.
Robert Taylor
It's an industrial waste product, unfortunately
Brayden Robinson
Shill. Pilots are forbidden to consume anything with aspartame before flight. It's a neurotoxin
Xavier Powell
NO!
It's called self-control.
Juan Wright
It tastes worse. It also gives you autism.
Gavin Phillips
Do you guys also think GMOs are bad and that vaccines cause autism?
Blake Russell
>Implying vaccines don't cause autism.

Or just don't drink sugar water because your babby palate needs sating for you to function.

Kill yourself

It doesn't, but if you think it does, you should just drink water, it tastes just as good.

Why are caloriecucks mad that diet soda is superior?
Connor King
I love Coke Zero and legit think it tastes better than regular Coke, but diet Mtn Dew is nothing like the real Mtn Dew, and infinitely worse than Throwback Mtn Dew.
Bentley Phillips
this. too many hippie "i don't like chemicals in my food" type people on Veeky Forums
Jack Scott
>literally tastes the same.
No it fucking doesn't.
Henry Bell
We used to have a "Coke Cherry Zero" over here. Sadly they discontinued it. Man, I loved that shit. Legit tasted better than the original.
Michael Powell
definitely does not taste the same
Jackson Rogers
in fairness, if he lives in america then both versions are loaded with artificial sweeteners and aspertame
>smoking weed and smoking crack is basically the same thing
Jaxson Murphy
I prefer the taste of diet coke. I guess I prefer the flavour of chemical sweeteners. It isn't a problem because I only drink them a couple of times a week. The lack of calories part is just a nice bonus
Chase Wood
Have a Zevia!
Caleb Scott
If the calories you're saving from diet soda is making or breaking your caloric intake you either drink too much soda or eat too much food.
Andrew Richardson
I drink soda aboutonce or twice a week, but when I do it's an entire 1,5L bottle. In total that would amount to 600-700 calories if I drank regular soda, which really isn't that little. Especially if I'm using it to mix it with spirits, which would be total overkill calorie wise
Andrew White
>drinks a liter at once
Well, ok man go for it if you can't tste the difference. Old Coke Zero was close, diet Dr. Pepper is pretty good. But if you unironically drink diet coke you're insane.
Michael Perez
>vaccines cause autism?
but they do user

diet coke tastes better than regular coke tbqh
