[HEADING=1]DIET PEPSI![/HEADING]

[sub]Holy turdbuckets, it's a new can design![/sub]

What's that, a review of a soft drink? Yes, it is!

The Pepsi company. The Coca-Cola company. The soft drink industry's version of the Console Wars. Then there's Barr. But no-one cares about Barr, so let's leave them out of the equation.

So, I decided to write a review of Diet Pepsi for two reasons:

1. I had some in my house
2. They recently changed the design of the can.
3. Uhh... I like drinking it?

Yeah, well, let's get going, then.

[HEADING=2]COCA COLA VS PEPSI! OH MY LORD CONTROVERSY ATTACK![/HEADING]
[sub]Flame waaaaaaaaar[/sub]

Right, so we all know what Pepsi is. It and Coca-Cola have been the subject of much intellectual internets and IRL debate for years now. Which is better? You want the answer? You want the truth?
[sub][sub]You can't haaaaandle the truth[/sub][/sub]

Anyway, I can't give you an answer. Both are almost the same. But with a few subtle differences...

[HEADING=2]It's a title denoting the start of another section of the review![/HEADING]

Pepsi is a carbonated soft-drink. This variety of Pepsi is low-calorie and sugar free. [sub][sub]and sexy[/sub][/sub]

It is a cola drink. Most people here will (probably) know what a cola drink is, and what they taste like. I personally prefer the diet version of these as the full-sugar versions tend to leave a funny sugar-feeling on my teeth.

It is, however, despite being diet, not a super-healthy option. Water is still better for you. Though, let's be honest here;

Who gives a fuck?

It tastes better than water.

[HEADING=2]Positives[/HEADING]

1. It's carbonated, so fizzy. I like it when it's tingly!
2. It fills that soft-drink void that only hands soft-drinks can satisfy.
3. It's a [sub]slightly[/sub] healthy alternative to the normal version.

[HEADING=2]Negatives[/HEADING]

1. It doesn't have the delicious sugary taste of the original pepsi.
2. I'm not entirely sure I prefer the new can design.
3. It makes me, how should I put this, release gas, when I drink too much.

[HEADING=2] Conclusion time! Like Question Time, but with less famous people! [/HEADING]

[HEADING=3]SCORE OUT OF 32.33 (repeating, of course)[/HEADING]

I would give Diet Pepsi a 28.22 (repeating) out of 32.33 (repeating).

It is quite a nice drink. I, however, prefer Coke Zero to Diet Pepsi. It just seems slightly less gassy to me.

I tried Diet Pepsi once a few years back. Didn't like it. Nor do I like Diet Coke, Coke Zero, Diet Ginger Ale, Diet Cream Soda, or Diet Dr. Pepper. I like my soda full-sugar and full-calorie despite the fact that I know that it's doing permanent damage to my body each time I drink it.

...wow, this must be what smokers feel like.

On a side note, I've been drinking a lot of knockoff sodas lately. Just looking to my right I spot a can of GV Twist Up, a 2L bottle of Safeway's Dr. Skipper, and a 1L bottle of Life brand's Cream Soda. And I used to drink PC Cola, Dad's Root Beer, and Faygo drinks back home as well. Don't write off the knockoffs, sometimes they're awesome!

Agreed. I've been needing to drink this since I first read the Cracked.com article that featured it.
