Why? I love it, makes it compatible with my Diabetes. I wish more drinks did this so I had something else then water and coke zero to drink in restaurants.
I stopped drinking Coke for some years and now it tastes terrible, like gross sickly medicine. I don't think Coke changed its flavour all that much, I think that I appraised it more objectively and found it severely lacking.
This happened to me too. I don't drink sodas but in the very rare occasion there is nothing else I try to pick the zero types, like the other user said, they feel less sweet and less medicine tasting.
If you stop drinking all the soda (fake or real sugar) your brain rewires to baseline eventually. And at baseline sodas are disgustingly sickeningly sweet.
I've seen the oreo part of this partnership but I wanna know if they're supposed to be coke flavored or if they just made 1 side of the cookie red and it's just a regular Oreo otherwise. I would try them if they're actually coke flavored.
I hate zero sugar sodas, though. The artificial sweeteners always taste weird and leave a fuzzy feeling in my mouth that I despise.
My friend has some of those, literally no one will drink them after he forced everyone to take a sip. They're so bad. The coke Oreos are when worse tho.

It's the "no sugar" part that I find the most blasphemous.

That's fair. I'm certainly not against the concept of drinks with sugar alternatives, but for whatever reason the only one I actually enjoy is Fresca.

I like coke 0, but a crossover with coke and Oreo is wild to have both 0 calories AND 0 sugar

Vanilla Coke Zero Sugar is my caffeinated soda of choice. It's pretty good!

I wish they'd bring back Orange Vanilla! Importing the Bleach themed coke that was orange vanilla from Japan was expensive and didn't last long.

Yeah it was more "weird" than "bad" IMO

The Coke flavored Oreos are the more demonic side of this coin. Who the hell thought Aspartame was a good flavor for a cookie?
Baggie@lemmy.zip · 3 pts · 1y
Yeah I tried these, they're like oreos but then a weird coke flavour punches you in the face at some point.
Rolando@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 1y
Fun fact: modern Coca-Cola contains cocaine-free coca leaf extract. Do Coke-flavored Oreos?

They did switch from sugar to HFCS at one point. The "zero sugar" line is better.

Except for Sprite at a McDonalds, because the water purification and soft drink system costs as much as the rest of the store combined.

I will die mad about them not calling the Pepsi and Peeps combo, "Peepsi."

A friend of mine tried it and enjoyed it. At the very least, maybe this is hope that we can ditch our collective sugar addiction.

It's delicious and I am totally addicted to it

I actually liked it.

I heard about this travesty. Although likely it's probably just modified vanilla coke with some chocolate flavor mixed in.

They're teaming up with 7-Eleven too...

My brother purchased these exact cans. I hate that this exists.

Not sure id try that since I'm not a fan of sweet drinks but I'd be curious about coca cola flavored Oreos

These taste almost identical to regular Pepsi. It's kind of a ripoff.

Idk. The aspartame in zero products is so bitter that it's not even comparable.
