It used to be a simple thing to stock soda, but now there are so many
different flavors that seem to overlap. I wonder if the store or the disty
decides what to put in? Have you noticed that the large bottles have
shrunken as well?

I just bought a diet vanilla coke in Delaware this week. It was an accident,
I thought it was plain diet. That vanilla tastes nasty, to me anyway.

Diet Cherry Coke is hard to find here, but Diet Vanilla Coke is not.
And I drink Diet Lime Coke weekly.

Diet is sometimes hard to find in any flavor. :-) For example, today in the
store, Coke products are on sale and shelf space for Fresca and Diet Sprite
are cleaned out. (12-packs and 2-liter)

In general, in the 20-oz to 1-liter size, there are a few, but again diet is
pretty rare.

OTOH, today they had 21-oz Diet Dr. Pepper (5% more than 20-oz!)

Plenty of Diet Vanilla, but I've never seen Diet Cherry. (C2 comes in
8-packs for the same price as other 12-packs.)

Steve - still waiting for Diet Vanilla Jolt Free Extreme Twist!

Diet Jolt would do me. Twice the caffeine! Only caffeine does nothing
for me, so... I guess diet Coke is good enough :-|

It's funny but now that I am an LC guy I can't stand some of the diet
flavors. TOO SWEET!

It's almost like diet coke with real lime, a totally better taste
than any of the others.

I've never seen the Diet Cherry. Didn't even know there was such a thing. I
do see Diet Vanilla, but it is too sicky sweet tasting to me, and just about
makes me gag. I adore the Diet Lime and could easily get addicted to it. :-)

Diet Lime Coke sounds really good! I have never seen it here though. Has
anyone else in the UK seen it anywhere? Or any soft drinks sweetened with
Splenda?

I've not seen the Diet Lime but it sounds great!

I have a heck of a time finding Diet Vanilla Coke in 2 liter bottles. I can
find 12-packs at Coborn's grocery store. the Diet Coke with Lime and C2 have
taken the shelf space from my favorite pop. good with Vodka too.

In the "this is odd" file, I found DietRite at my favorite grocery
store. This is, however, a store that has resisted, until very
recently, the low-carb trend. That's been perfect for me - they've been
the place I go to get good veggies and meats, but no trash. So, while
I'm thrilled they now have DietRite cola (it would be nice if they
carried some of the flavors, too) they also had "lowcarb oreos." The
mere thought of how much time I would be spending in the bathroom caused
me to veer away, looking green.

I wish people would follow the principles, and not the trends.

That said: I still like some of the lowcarb products, such as the flax
cereals, the low-carb breads for occasional use, and the breakfast bars
for occasional use. My thoughts on that are this: if there's some real
nuitritive value, I'm ok with it. If there isn't, I'm not. To each
his/her own, however, if those products float your boat.

My favorite is the diet coke with lime - I drink one almost every day - I
don't have problems with caffeine and don't like coffee.

I'm in the UK, I loved DVC when I was in the US in summer 2002. Since it
launched here in 2003 I've been a huge fan and it's gottem more and more
popular here. We dont and never have had Diet Cherry Coke and I never could
find it in the Baltimore Area when I was there for the summer.

I remember drinking regular RC years ago when I lived in the Chicago area.
Was underweight then and didn't need the diet stuff. I don't think either
of them are available in the UK though. I haven't seen anything that isn't
sweetened with aspartame. I don't like the aftertaste so I drink diet coke
with lemon when I do have any. That helps. I might get some regular diet
and fresh limes to try my own version of lime coke!
