Diet Mtn Dew isn't the worst tasting diet soda.

[Awson]

It's just the most disappointing :(

[The Nexerus]

Why were you expecting Diet anything to be good?

[AlteredTundra]

>implying diet soda is actually good

[Awson]

@The Nexerus@Altered Tundra

It's not about being good. It's about being tolerable.

Regular soda is fucking rad. It gives me my caffeine, and it tastes awesome.

But at a point, some people decide that they no longer want to/can afford to drink so many calories on a regular basis.

Those same people can also have a hard time living without caffeine.

Thus, an unsatisfactory compromise was made.

There's some caffeine for you — enjoy.

What is the calorie count on your average cup of coffee? I don't think I've ever seen that talked about.

[The Nexerus]

No. You said Diet Mountain Dew was the most disappointing soft-drink, meaning that it tasted the worst in comparison to what you were expecting. You also said it wasn't the worst tasting, so you must therefore have expected it to be good, or at least better than other diet soft-drinks. My question was, why?

It's not bad tasting. It's drinkable. It doesn't taste bad.

The problem is that regular Mountain Dew is so powerful, and so DMD is a more noticeable step down than, say, a Diet Coke.

And the actual worst tasting diet sodas, IMO, are the diet versions of the drinks I didn't care for in the first place.

Diet cream soda has to be the worst for everyone, if I had to guess.

I'm pretty sure that the only people that buy cream soda and call it their favorite were raised deep underground in cream soda communes.

It was - I mean, SHUTUP! I didn't live in an underground commune you spastic nerd! LEAVE ME ALONE!

I'm not much for alcohol most of the time, but that isn't too bad. Doesn't taste like antiseptic.

It is pretty good.

But it seems to be seasonal. At least around here. Like there's this brief, unspoken window of time where Not Your Dad's is stocked around here.
