I had and may still have a serious addiction to diet coke. I love it love it love it. It's like a drug to me. I cut it out for a few weeks, but now I have one every other day or so. I figure , I don't smoke drink or take any drugs...I'm gonna have a diet coke every once in a while. BUT I have discovered club soda...I actually like this better than anything I could possibly drink. It has no flavor like water, which I love, and it's carbonated! really carbonated, which I love. To be honest , most people find it disgusting, but I love it! I think I could eventually give up my diet coke addiction for this stuff. Maybe you should try it. It has a real kick to it. I think that may be what I crave about diet coke. It's carbonation is stronger than most drinks. So anyway, there ya go. That's what I do.
