Anyone still drink fizzy soft drinks much any more?


I stoppped over a year ago and now drink fruit juice.


I feel the better of it too.

I never buy 'full fat' soft drinks - empty calories.

How is this new? hasn't Coke with lime been out for more than a year?


I don't drink much in the way of fizzy drinks. I drink tea or fruit juice.

They only did it in diet form originally.

I try to drink juice and very rarely drink fizzy pop. I like lucozade but if I buy a bottle it all goes within a few hours .

I drink fizzy pop but diet versions, though I try to avoid it. I'm not so keen on juice, especially dilute juice.

Juice 'drinks' are actually worse for you than fizzy pop. Something that's described as a fruit juice drink can contain as little as 5% fruit juice.

Water is better for you.

Juices made from concentrate can be too acidic. As for water - it's too boring!

I drink fizzy drinks occasionally. I wouldn't drink just one thing exclusively.

I drink fizzy occasionally, but I prefer water, sugar free juice drinks or fresh juices.

I haven't tried that one, does it taste anything like a coke float?

I have never had a coke float so I can't say

Vanilla coke is the best. They are stopping making it soon 

What's a coke float?

It's a glass of coke with a scoop of vanilla ice-cream floating in it.

Are they really?

Yep. It will be replaced by Black Cherry Vanilla flavour, but Coke say they may reintroduce Vanilla at some point.

So that means only if cherry vanilla doesnt sell well!

Probably!

Why take it away? Why not just leave it there, surely it can't be selling that badly?

It can't be performing well enough to justify production costs.
