It's not that everything has to be sweet, but rather that, for example, Coke really isn't Coke without sweetness and people just happen to enjoy Coke. And if you're going to enjoy a Coke, Coke Zero or Diet Coke is better for your health.
Of course there are other things like coffee that really are not defined by sweetness and can be perfectly enjoyed unsweetened.
- cyberax 5mo agoA guy on the Internet recently reverse-engineered the Coke formula and published the recipe. I always liked Diet Coke, the regular one is just too sweet for me. So I replicated the recipe, and I actually liked unsweetened Cola! It feels a bit tea-like, but also more acidic. Kinda like coffee but without the bitter undertone. If you like Coke drinks, I highly recommend it.
- JCattheATM 5mo agoThere are lots of cola recopies, why is this guy confident he has Coke's?
- cyberax 5mo agoHe used chromatography and mass spec to match the chemical composition, along with taste tests. Many people also tried this recipe and can't tell the difference in blind tests between it and various types of Coke.
- MrDrMcCoy 5mo agoI've seen a number of attempted coke replicas, but this one sounds like the best. Would you kindly share the link?
