I love Splenda Diet Coke (it's been available here for years, not sure it's available everywhere in the US; most of the time I have to go to Meijer to find it), and Diet Rite (also Splenda), didn't know about this, will have to track it down. Aspertame has a crappy aftertaste (I'm used to it now), Splenda tastes (and aftertastes) much better).

I’ve gotten it at Wal-Mart.

Diet RC uses Splenda, too.

Agreed.

Aspartame gives me nasty headaches.

I use stevia when I cook but for diet drinks I have to look for the splenda ones.

Add me to the list of Splenda Diet Coke drinkers. I think it gets reasonably close to the taste of cane sugar powered regular coke.

I’ll try this Splenda Pepsi out of curiosity, even though I’m a Coke fan.

"Diet Rite (also Splenda), didn't know about this, will have to track it down."

It's called Diet Rite "Pure Zero" and has a blue label. I like diet Pepsi, but I like Diet Rite "Pure Zero" better.

I’ve found that automotive anti-freeze tastes really good.

Plus, it’s used in ice cream, so why not in a carbonated beverage.

They started selling Diet Coke with Splenda just a few months (IIRC) before they started selling Coke Zero. Almost overnight, DC with Splenda almost disappeared, as they had a huge marketing campaign for Coke Zero. I just saw it for the first time in I don’t know how long a couple weeks ago and bought two 12 packs. Very similar to Coke Zero, but definitely a bit better.
