Can people taste the differents between diet soda and regular soda?!


Question: I can tell the difference between regular and diet soda by both taste and smell. I can't stand diet - it tastes phony and has too many chemicals in it, plus I am allergic to artificial sweeteners of all kinds.

yes

i can't

Definately, Diet tastes like crap!

i can!

diet is awful!

anything with fake sugar leaves an awful taste in my mouth!

=*(

HECK YEAH

diet coke tastes like chemicals to me i can call a diet soda 10 times outta 10..

depends on the ability of your smell and taste buds

with coke and diet coke, definitely

yep. regular is too sweet for me

Yes, especially if you have been drinking one or the other for years.

yeah....a lot !

Yes, I can taste the "difference" and diet drinks make me sick with that sweetener. YUCK!!!!

Diet sodas seem softer and have a little less kick in my opinion.

Yes, Regular tastes like crap

Absolutely. Regular soda has so much sugar that is is very sticky-sweet (approx 10 tsp of sugar in one 12 oz can of reg Coke). It is easy to tell them apart.

diet pop taste like flat watered down pop thats because it is flat watered down pop

i can... ican tell any soda apart

I can taste a drastic difference between dr.pepper and its diet alternative

only if sugar has a taste in your mouth

well diet coke is different from regular coke...definitely

Yes, when I used to drink Dew, I tasted Diet and it was horrible, tasted flat and warm (ya know how pop tastes when it warm vs when its cold) NASTY!!!!

Most people can. People with a taste (sensory) deficit probably can't.

However, once you get used to diet soda, it's very hard to go back to the regular kind. Good thing for me that I learned to like them when I was dieting years ago. Now I have diabetes and have to drink them.

Diet soda has a sugar replacement in it. That's about the only difference. Its like the equivalent of using sweeteners in your coffee rather than sugar. The difference is massive, of course you can tell.

Yes, infact I sent 2 drinks back last week because I was given regular coke (very syrupy) instead of diet, and both waitresse's admitted that they accidently gave me regular.

I can't but I don't drink much soda. But I know most people can tell the difference.

If it is a cola type, yes, I can tell. If it is orange or sprite type, no.

pretty much yeah

yes

If it has asspartame in it, yes.

If it has sucralose in it, not always. Depends on the flavour.

do a taste test with 10 people and find out. 2 liters only cost a couple of bucks
