Well, there's a thing about how the major brands' original diet colas taste "so bad" to some, that some people don't realize.

Diet Pepsi and Diet Coke were some of the first diet sodas made, and they are NOT just Pepsi and Coke with an artificial sweetener. Diet Coke is not just "Coke with an artificial sweetener" - it's actually a completely different soda with a completely different recipe that has nothing in common with the "original" except for having some cola flavor in it. And same with Diet Pepsi.

Sodas like Pepsi Zero Sugar (what Pepsi Max is now called in the US) and Coke Zero are really "Pepsi" and "Coke" without sugar and with some other minor modifications. That's why they taste much more similar to the original sodas than Diet Pepsi or Diet Coke.
Allz I know is it always has a weird smarties after taste to me 'nd I don't like it!

DO THEY STILL MAKE DIET RITE????

If they do it's about as unobtanium as Shasta. Sometimes Dollar Generals will have it.

I want more stuff with saccharin back since they proved that the cancer it caused in rats only applies to rats. Or at least switched over to splenda (like the aforementioned Diet Rite did)

I'm on meds for psyche stuff and I don't want to throw aspartame into the mix:

They only diet cola I actually like is the diet Coke with lime. Lime flavour covers the nasty aftertaste of diet soda.

Spaghettios cold out of the can is my prefered way of eating them!!!!
I never tried it with spaghetti-o-s, but I used to eat cans of ravioli like that when I went backpacking. Campbell's used to make a chilli that actually tasted decent cold. I never ate it for the taste, though. It was just portable, and had the calories I needed to keep moving down the trail or fighting at SCA events.

I only have two, one for each hand, and they’re Christmas themed.

Ive had them forever. They’re old and ugly and I don’t remember ever buying them...

(The ship has passed on reevaluating my life 🎄)
Why was I thinking that you had to re-evaluate your life if you actually had themed potholders?

Making cheese burgers and potato salad tonight. I forgot how long it takes me to make a potato salad, chopping up all that stuff. 🍔🥔🥚🧂

I thought I was making something easy tonight until I was 45 minutes into it.
