Stevia to be used in Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi

I don't like stevia, I don't like the taste. So long as Diet Dr Pepper doesn't use it, I'm good.

I would not buy it even without the Stevia, as I don't "do" cola beverages. Have you tried birch sugar or Xylitol? I wholly approve of the use of Stevia and am ever so glad to see that the bad has been lifted, however, personally, I cannot stand the taste. http://www.xylitol.org/ Although I can tolerate any kind of natural sweetener, I try to make healthy choices in sweeteners whenever practical. Therefore I use agave syrup when I want something runny, and xylitol when crystals are desired. Both are reasonably shelf-stable, but xylitol obviously stores better.

I have read this to Darlene. I can't tolerate the taste of diet sodas, about the only one that I will drink on occasion is Fresca. If I am cutting down on sugar I would rather do without, then to drink diet. i Drink my Tea unsweetened, with lemon occasionally and I like that okay. or just water and lemon. I know with your condition you look for treats anywahere you can find them. I hope this proves good for you.

That would be great, I think Stevia tastes a lot like sugar and it's supposed to be all natural. I actually loved the taste of Tab back in the 70's but I think it tastes awful now. Either they changed the recipe or my taste buds have changed but I can't stand it! Same with Coke Zero, nasty stuff and nothing like the regular Coke! I don't drink much pop. They say it takes 8 gallons of water to flush out the effects of one can of pop so I'll have a real Coke every once in awhile but that's about it. Even though it's bad for you, I'd drink more pop with Stevia in it, especially if they could make diet Coke taste like the non-diet!

I don't drink much soda anymore, mostly because sugar is so bad for you and artificial sweetners taste so horrible to me. I might try drinking it more often with Stevia. Good to know.

Anything that will taste close to sugar without the loaded calories and safe by medical standard would be fine by me. If stevia it is then I guess I would be one of the many that would be glad.

I would drink it. I have always stayed away from diet drinks because I did not care to be drinking artificial sweeteners. I hope other companies follow suit.

Oh I am going to have to email the coca cola company if they change my diet coke I will be mad! I don't like these other sweetners they use in pop. I know diet 7 up now uses splenda and I can't stand the taste of that pop anymore it is gross. Useing a different sweetne rin my pop will change the flavor! They will lose alot of money from me if they do that as I will no longer buy diet coke.

As a diabetic I think I might like stevia in my diet soda and it would be safer than some of the other sugar free things. I would go back to drinking more diet sodas then. I do not like tab however.

I wonder what is stevia. I never heard of this before in my life. I would not support the idea of adding anything to diet sodas at all. I much rather have diet sevenup, sierra mist, and sprite with nothing in it at all. The reason I choose diet is that I can maintain my great health. You know what I mean? I wonder where you got the news of stevia in diet sodas.
