Why do manufacturers still produce non-diet versions of soft drinks (Coca Cola, Irn Bru etc)? If they claim they " taste the same, but healthier ", then what's the point in producing a less healthy alternative? Even if they were cheaper to make, if they halted production of them, they'd probably save millions, which they could put towards whatever else they liked. Just a thought!
 
I don't mind diet coke really - although you're right, pepsi max is delicious. Incidentally, what's with all the e-number hatred? I thought all they did was make you slightly hyperactive ( depending on tolerance of course ). Oh, and its a definite no-go for people with heart problems. But apart from that ( admittedly small ) segment of people, i still don't see why " fat coke " exists. Especially as the general consensus is that it tastes like syrup. :D
