Diet Vanilla Coke!!!
« on: June 03, 2003, 12:04:14 AM »
It's fab!  Dh had tried some when he had a meeting at one of the Coca-Cola plants a few months ago - raved about it - both 'regular' and diet versions.  I saw it in Sainsbury's today (on offer, too! 2 6-packs for 3 pounds) and picked it up.  Oh, YUMMY!  Tastes just like a vanilla coke, not 'diety' at all.  I don't know how the regular Vanilla Coke tastes, but it's probably great, too.  My taste buds were so happy today, they thought they were on holiday!  ;)

Just had to share,

Stephanie

I had been telling my mother-in-law about dieat vanilla coke, I had it last time I was back in the States, and I was complaining about the shortage of diet pop in England, then the same day I walked past Woolworths and saw a huge crate of it. I nearly peed my pants. Didn't, fortunately.  [smiley=2thumbsup.gif]

Oh dear.... i've tried both the diet and regular versions of Vanilla Coke as soon as they appeared in the UK, and thought both of them were absolutely, gut-wrenchingly AWFUL!
Different strokes, i guess!  
The weird thing is that i love vanilla... and i love putting vanilla syrup into a coke.  But the pre-made stuff... UGH!

I'm with Badger!

Don't know about the diet, but I tried the regular version today (on offer in Tesco) and wasn't impressed.

It tasted like a very weak Coke float.
Insert wonderfully creative signature here …

I still can't find Diet Vanilla Coke in Ireland. Trish or anyone else here, have you seen it. There is plenty of plain vanilla coke about but I don't drink regular coke.

I mentioned before that i really hated this stuff, however... i tried it with vodka last night, and it was much better that way!  Quite liked it!  ;D

I like the vanilla coke but I prefer the cherry version!  :o When we last went to NY they had this version of Pepsi which was putrid, it was blue, and it was bad!  Just hope they don't try for a UK launch with that too!!
