I'm fortunate because I live in the South where Diet Rite is common. Diet Rite is sweetened with Splenda. While I don't particularly care for the cola (too sweet for me) I do like their rasberry and tangerine sodas. Tasty! But I usually limit them to one a day just because I prefer that I drink water. Relatively benign chemicals, but chemicals nonetheless.

Sometimes if you look carefully as some of the "lesser" brands you'll find ones that use Splenda.

Actually, I was at the store the other day buying soda and the chashier said that her whole family is diabetic and the doctor recommended Diet Rite because Splenda is easier for the body to handle and it has less aftertaste than Nutrasweet.
