Diet Vanilla Coke

[figmo]

I found it!!! The Safeway near my house had the 20oz bottles for 99 cents/each. Not a great price (I'd have preferred a two-liter bottle for $1.25, but they didn't have any), but I had to try it.

The result? I'm hooked. :-)

If Coke pulls Diet Vanilla Coke off the market, grab a bottle of Torani sugar-free vanilla syrup; it is made with Splenda. Their sugar-free Raspeberry syrup is a wonderful additive to my genericokes.

Heretic.

I tried Vanilla Coke when it was first released. I looked at the lady giving out free samples and said that I thought they destroyed all the stocks of New Coke.

I thought New Coke was still on the market in a handful of metro areas where the stuff sells relatively well. Not that *I* care for the stuff, mind you, but there are a handful of small cities where folks apparently do like it.

What i really want is Coke flavored with real sugar, rather than corn sweetener. Gotta get myself out to Brookline during Passover for that.

New coke
Neeewwww coke
Just the thing that would induce you to spew coke
It's so awful, so very awful
Not even my dog would drink it

Wow, such picky soda people :).

I like Vanilla Coke. I haven't seen diet Vanilla Coke in Canada yet, but I'll try it once it gets here.

Bless you!

I liked Vanilla Coke, but it would be a seldom treat now. Thanks for telling me about the diet Vanilla Coke! A new soda to drink!

I've had Vanilla Coke made at a fountain and I've tried the bottled stuff. The bottled stuff pales beside what you can get at a soda fountain.

What makes you think I don't already have a bottle of sugar-free Torani vanilla sitting in my Torani syrup cabinet (yes, I have such a thing)? :-)

The diet stuff has to be fresh because they're still using Nutra-Sweet, which has a limited shelf life.

You usually can't get the diet variety of vanilla Coke at a soda fountain because they don't tend to keep sugar-free syrup around.

The regular stuff makes me pass out -- something about that "high fructose corn syrup" in it.

I think some places just use a drop or two of vanilla extract, actually.
