I prefer the real thing because I detest the aspartame (whatever you guys call it) taste of diet and I find artificial sweeteners unpleasant. It taste like bitter and metallic, which makes the taste of my mouth awful after I eat something. I can't see how anybody can drink that crap. =\

I honestly don't trust diet soda at all, but have it occasionally, or when my Dad get's me the wrong drink. Anyways I prefer the regular old soda, I wish they didn't fill nasty stuff into diet drinks, otherwise I'd drink it whenever I can. I'm not a big 'soda' drinker, but it's come to my attention that I've been consuming a lot lately, which is not good. So I have been turning to water which is better for you.

I hardy drink soda these days. But before when I used to drink it, I drank regular soda a lot. But then when realized I needed to stop, but I couldn't. So I switched to diet soda. But then I totally stopped altogether. Because diet soda is just as bad as drinking the regular. I will drink some sometimes, but it is once in full blue moon. I drank one for the first time in a long time and I thought it was really too sweet. Blech...

When it comes down to choosing Regular or Diet sodas, it's really a "Pick-yer-Poison" kind of thing. I'd honestly rather die a fairly quick death by cardiac arrest than die a slow, agonizing, expensive death to nearly incurable cancer. So yeah, Regular soda all the frigging way!

That being said, I don't really drink soda often enough for it to be a health hazard anyways. I vastly prefer sweetened tea. (And yes, I use REAL SUGAR!)
I still can't stand diet sodas anyways, because of the lack of density and the aftertaste, which is horrendous. x3

Regular soda. Because Diet soda is even worse for you with all the artificial crap they put in it. :)
I totally agree. Diet soda has all those chemicals and artificial stuff in it. It isn't good for you. I learned the hard way. So I stopped drinking soda altogether. It was a good choice.

I hate diet soda! With all the stuff they put in it so they say it's diet, it makes the soda taste nasty!

Just give me regular soda. I don't care if people say it's worse than diet! At least I won't have that crap diet has in me!

Diet soda is made with aspartame. Aspartame is bad. Not to mention Diet drinks are yucky in my opinion.

I'll stick with my caffeine or caffeine free Coke (which has no benzoate, which is also bad and in most caffeine free sodas, not to mention those "zero calorie" sodas), thanks <3
