So the low carb craziness has hit our favorite beverages...What does everybody think about these new lower sugar, carb, and calorie sodas? Are they a worthless mix of diet and regular, or are they a good necessary balance between the two?
I've tried both, and C2 most definitely prevails. It does what it's supposed to do. It tastes a lot like normal coke and it has less calories. Pepsi Edge on the other hand doesn't taste enough like regular Pepsi to warrant its existence. If I want a lower calorie/carb pepsi, I'll have a Pepsi One or a Diet Pepsi. Anyway, from now on if I crave a coke, I'll go with a C2 instead of regular coke. Though if I crave a Pepsi, I'll still go with regular Pepsi because Pepsi Edge doesn't quite do it for me.
In addition, if they don't make C2 versions of Vanilla Coke or Cherry Coke, I'll sacrifice the calories and carbs to drink those...
Thoughts please.
