i started drinking it, its not too bad once you get use to the taste of aspartame

does coke hold a monopoly over splenda, or will we be seeing pepsi products with splenda any time soon?

I used to drink Diet Mountain Dew all the time... just because it still has the caffeine in it, but is supposedly 'better for you' than regular. Everyone else in my office would drink regular... I was the only one that would drink diet.

Now I prefer MD LiveWire over Mountain Dew (Original), but I still like the green stuff, too! ;)

Diet Mountain Dew is a staple for my dad. He drinks at least 3-4 of them a day. I am used to it by now and I like it better than regular. It's the same as most people who drink diet... After a while, regular tastes too thick and sugary.

Great job.

Quote:
The FDA has required since 1979 that food and drugs containing Yellow No. 5 be labeled to indicate its presence (and the U.S. Department of Agriculture requires similar labeling for meat and poultry), but that requirement came about because tartrazine was found to be associated with a variety of allergic type reactions in sensitive people, not because it wreaked havoc with the male reproductive system.

Blasphemy.

Diet Mountain Dew is one of the better diet sodas available, though in general one should limit consumption of any soda (regular or diet).
