I can’t believe I’m the only one who’s stoked about this–out grocery shopping last night and as we cruise up to the checkout stand, what do I see in the cooler? Can it be??
I approached with trembling hands and trepidation in my heart. Surely, I thought, this is someone’s idea of a sick joke. Perhaps a bottle of that vile black cherry concoction with a new label.
Turns out, it’s true! I went straight home and had a vodka and Vanilla Coke to celebrate ;).
NajaHusband suggests I fill the garage with cases enough to last through 'til the apocalypse, in case it’s just a momentary respite and it disappears again.
Anyone know the story with this? Is it back to stay or just a periodic resurfacing?
Diet vanilla coke does not taste like something that was made for human consumption. And to be clear: I am not exaggerating for effect. Sometimes I claim “I don’t understand how anyone can drink that” when I just mean I personally find it to taste bad. But in the case of diet vanilla coke, when I say “I don’t understand how anyone can drink that,” I mean the comment utterly seriously and literally.
Ever since developing diabetes, I’ve been resigned to drinking diet sodas. Coke Zero sure is a lot better than the dreck that is Diet Coke. And when I saw that they has a Vanilla Zero, I was in heaven.
Coke zero (all versions I’ve tried) tastes far less like aspartame than diet coke. I like diet coke with Splenda, and if they made vanilla coke with splenda I’m sure I’d like it even better than the vanilla coke zero. It’s tasty with rum or vanilla vodka.
