I presume Coke Zero is the no-sugar drink from coke - aimed at the male market who think diet cola is a bit girly.
I dont touch any diet drinks, they are evil!

This controversy has been going on for a while now, which is probably another reason as to why they changed the name.
Hmm..I'm not sure about "diet" being "girly", since many people (male and female, including teachers) drank it when I was in middle school, but with all the controversy and just the word "diet" being touchy now, I'm guessing they changed the name.

-------aye the article IS scary. I dont touch any stuff with asparatame in it.
years ago my mum had went to the docs and said that she was feeling down all the time.
the first question that he asked her was "do you drink any diet drinks?"
to which my mum replied yes, we always used to have diet irn-bru in the house.
he told her to stop drinking it and keep away from asparatame, she did and was fine after that.I read something a while back that it gives MS type symptoms to a lot of people. and in a lot of cases where doctors are not familiar with asparatame poisioning, their patients are actually diagnosed WITH MS!!
mad stuff.

Coke Zero uses splenda though instead of Nutrsweet, right?
- mrdobolina0

My stepsister's mother, a dietitian and allergologist puts it short: aspartame is toxic.

Around here we have Diet Coke, Coke with Splenda, Coke Zero, Diet Coke Plus (w/ Vitamins...)
... Zero is the best tasting, but after reading that.. I think I will just stick to Vodka.
What ever happened to real sugar? Is it really that bad?

cell phones are supposed to give you cancer too....no one has stopped using those
I think we should all avoid going outside, lock ourselves in our houses, dull down all sharp objects, then pad our furniture and walls...that way nothing bad will ever happen to us
oh and if you have to go out of the house and get a cancer drink don't forget to wear one of these

You have a point, Dukie.
It's all about moderation and/or using your better judgment when it comes to risks like this. It doesn't mean you can never drink it again (unless you have health issues), but to be careful.
I mainly drink things just for the taste, so it's a good thing I am picky about what I consume.

Coke Zero taste like Pepsi. I prefer regular Coke, although I wouldnt mind some Cherry Coke which we don't get here in Mexico
