At my job we have free drinks in our fridge. Those drinks include: coke, diet coke, and various la croix flavors. I myself do occasionally enjoy a diet coke and even a full sugar coke. After a long day of sipping various colas of the coke variety, I can happily say that nothing beats coke zero. Coming home and cracking open a can of that peppery, metallic cola is delightful. It makes me feel whole again. Something coke and diet coke cannot achieve.
