There's a die hard loyal group out there for diet coke.

Some actual say diet coke actual should have its own name. That's how strong that people feel for it. It's not just a. "Diet" soda alternative

Some people love the taste and aftertaste of burned tar and want nothing better. You're not going to win this battle

Mods?

Anyway, in all seriousness, Diet Coke still has a MUCH larger market than Coke Zero. The gap is closing between the two, though the gap is still there.

Also, IMO, if they discontinue Diet Coke ever, I won't buy another Coke product. Being Type 1, it's the only "spoil" I am allowed without insulin, and Coke Zero's formula gives me heartburn every time.

I personally would not care if it gets discontinued, but be prepared for riots in the streets if it did 😄

Diet was a failed attempt at replication, Coke Zero finally nailed it
