    Meh, gotta say, I like it

    Zero is too chemically
    Diet and regular are too sweet
    Life is just right

    And the green packaging means I'm helping the environment by drinking it

    I didn't know what to expect. Coke as in drugs probably.

    I like Diet Coke though. :)

    I really like Coke in countries where they still use sugar rather than HFCS. You can really taste the difference.

    Coke Zero: pure, or nearly pure, unadulterated form.
    Coke Diet: hasn't been cut with sugars, like lactose.
    Coke Life: only cut with environmentally-safe and natural substances like baking soda, for example.
    Coke Caffeine Free: hasn't been cut with caffeine.

    in this sense, Coke Zero has the highest quality of all, and is the best option, obviously. Caffeine Free is also something i personally recommend; caffeine is responsible for some of the worst side effects and comedown when using Coke in higher amounts. and if it has an exaggerated proportion of caffeine in it (due to incompetent management) you'll really regret taking it afterwards.

    coke + life, does sound like one of those self contradictory phrases. i'm not big on the idea of adding coloration to bottled beverages, nor for that matter, even carbonation.
    nor world spanning corporate entities that have been household words for decades or even centuries.

    I like cola ocassionally but when I buy a bottle myself I never get Coca (or Pepsi for that matter) anymore. You're just paying for the brand. I buy a cheap brand which is almost 1 euro cheaper per liter than coca cola. Fuck that shit. I only buy diet coke as well, but these days I don't get it a lot. Also, Coca cola's advertising is annoying which has enforced my dislike of the brand.

    The only pop I drink is Dr. Pepper, and that is on a very rare occasion. This is the first I have heard of Coke Life, might give it a try.

    you weirdos, it is soda, not pop. Actually I am an anomaly around here calling it soda because everyone just calls it coke, and by coke they mean either Pepsi or coke or any dark colored beverage.

    I've never heard of this coke life but I would probably hate it, I usually do hate the weird diet-y sodas. I like coke classic in a glass bottle when I drink soda

    "pop" and "soda" are both correct, they are short for soda-pop.

    Many years ago there was a great divide. On December 2nd 1889, hostilities erupted when the reduction of the name soda-pop could not be agreed upon. The more refined and distinguished of them were in favour for the name "pop". Where as the unexceptional group of people requested the name "soda". And this reflects how people use the names today... :)
