    Not sure how to interpret this. Is Coca-Cola making fun of Trump with the Diet Coke? If so its pretty funny.

      How will the Onion be able to make believable, funny, but fake stories that sound real enough to warrant a click anymore? We’ve been at this point for a while where the truth is about as funny as whatever the writers there could come up with.

        I drank coke for 30 years, but in the last year I stopped in part because of Gaza (among other terrible things and people they’ve supported over the years) and in part because the prices they’ve been charging lately are ridiculous. It was easier to quit than I thought it would be and I doubt I’ll ever buy a coke product again.

          Why is it so hard to get Pepsi in US, I personally feel like it tastes better.

            I mean… Diet Pepsi is pretty bad.

            Me at a restaurant: diet coke please

            Waiter: is Pepsi ok?

            Me: I’ll just have water

            Pepsi has the aspartame taste since they have it in all their drinks.

            I can’t stand it.

            But the Italian Mole Cola is great.

              Personal preferences are totally valid but Pepsi does not put Aspartame in all their drinks. Here’s Pepsi’s ingredients:

                Well, I just had a look at the ingredients list here in Sweden, we do have sweeteners in ours and while they are not aspartame, the have a similar aftertaste.

            I never liked the taste of Pepsi, but at this point I’ve just stopped drinking all soda.

    Now’s a perfect time to find an independently bottled soft drink supplier, such as Frostop (my personal favorite), or any one of a hundred other locally made sodas- or honestly just switch to water and tea, your kidneys and teeth will appreciate it

    How long until he replaces the Diet Coke button on the Resolute Desk with a soda fountain machine?

    Go full on fast food with it.
