    Carbonic acid, phosphoric acid, and citric acid are common among the favorite brand of soda (softdrinks).

    Bought sprite zero. Almost same taste as regular sprite. Unlike Coke zero. screenshot_2023-06-02-04-28-10-00_39060a31215a48c7aaf1fb3368fa2e89_1.jpg

    I was watching a Coke docu on YouTube. Pepsi did a Pepsi challenge and found out people liked Pepsi more than coke. Coke did the same experiment and verified that people liked Pepsi more on a blind test. So Coke changed the taste of their product and called it new Coke.

    But the backlash of people wanting the old Coke back is so huge that they reintroduced the classic coke. Now they have 2 cokes in the market, new Coke and classic Coke. New Coke didn't really sell well so they discontinued it.

    But when they conducted blind taste, new Coke comes 1st, Pepsi 2nd, classic Coke 3rd.

    So I was wondering, they have introduced a lot of coke in the market, cherry coke, vanilla Coke, mallow coke, Coke zero, Coke light. I wonder if one of those is the discontinued new Coke. I'm just curious what's the new Coke taste like.

    I thought Pepsi simply has more sugar in it which is why I liked it better.

    Aspartame back in the spotlight.


    [CODE]
    The US Food and Drug Administration has considered aspartame safe since 1974, but others have questioned that finding. The Center for Science in the Public Interest, a consumer advocacy group, has called aspartame the low-calorie sweetener of “most concern” because, it says, there is “compelling evidence that it causes cancer and is a potent carcinogen.” It nominated the ingredient for evaluation by IARC in 2014 and 2019.

    ‘Broad Consensus’
    “There is broad consensus in the scientific and regulatory community that aspartame is safe. It’s a conclusion reached time and time again by food-safety agencies around the world,” the American Beverage Association told Bloomberg in a statement. Coca-Cola Co. and PepsiCo Inc. declined to comment.

    These reports will follow a May WHO report finding that artificial sweeteners don’t help with weight loss.

    The IARC assessment will classify aspartame into one of four categories: carcinogenic to humans, probably carcinogenic to humans, possibly carcinogenic to humans or “not classifiable as to its carcinogenicity to humans.”

    My wife also doesn't like Coke zero, ayaw nya ng lasa. But ok sa kanya sprite zero since halos pareho lasa sa Regular sprite. Yun nga lang walang resto ang may sprite zero. Grocery lang and lazada kami nakaka bili.

    maybe a bit OT but still related to these carbonated sodas. I noticed the current formulation of sprite tastes like a bit of a flavor close to a mayo. especially when i drink sprite in mismo plastic bottles. The glass variants of sprite meanwhile does not have this taste but some glass bottles has this kind of flavor.
