What the hell even is Diet Coke?
What the hell even is Diet Coke?
Like, the nutrition facts table says it contains nothing other than some sodium. No sugars or fats or calories at all
Yet it clearly is edible, so what is it? Some concoction made mostly from indigestible minerals?
You're viewing a single thread.
Aspartame has about the same amount of calories as sugar (4kcal per gram). But it's much more sweet so you need very little of it. So there is a very tiny amount of sweetener which does contain calories but it's rounded down to 0.
The difference is also big enough that cans of diet coke float and regular sink.
You son of a bitch.......now I gotta buy a can of diet coke, and a can of coke.
I don't even LIKE diet coke! But I gotta know if you're full of shit...
Well, this will be my next party trick somehow.
If memory serves a 12oz can is just a little under 1/2 calorie.
If tens of thousands of commercials I heard in the 80s were right…
“Less than a calorie, Diet Coke!”
Just for the taste of it!
