Yes I did know that! I actually remember New Coke, it was disgusting. There was this weird Sam’s Club-esque grocery store called Food 4 Less that still carried it through the early 90s. I don’t trust any beverage that doesn’t go bad after 5 years. They have a Splenda sweetened Diet Coke, but I don’t care for it that much.

Now, did you know that Tab was specifically engineered to taste bad so people would have lowered expectations of diet soda? Ahh the Coca Cola conspiracy runs deep! Ha ha.

As for the PHP issues, nothing to terrible. Learning is just a painful process sometimes haha. If I do get stumped though I’ll shoot you an email, thanks for the offer!

The Coke Zero is actually Diet “Classic” Coke. Back in 1984 or whenever that was, both New Coke and Diet Coke came out at the same time, based on the same recipe. New Coke was a huge flop, but Diet Coke, being one of the only diet sodas available succeeded.

So, when the put Classic Coke out, they left the diet version alone. Now, with a new sweetener available that tastes more like sugar, trying a diet version of Classic Coke made sense and voila, Coke Zero.

Oh, and what PHP issues are you having? I can give you a hand if you want.

I was drinking Coca Cola Zero, which I think tastes better than regular coke. It’s not as syrupy. I never really care for Diet Coke. (Though nothing is worse than the vile swill that is Diet Pepsi)

I heard that artificial sweeteners trick your body into thinking they’re sugar, so your body processes them the same way it would real sugar. The exception to this is Splenda. (I’m not sure that this is 100% factual) So that’s why I’m drinking the Diet Rite. The tangerine flavor tastes pretty orange to me. I wish they made diet grape (I’ve only found white grape.)

Diet Rite IS surprisingly ungross. I actually like diet sunkist orange too, though that’s not splenda. It tastes orangey to me, but it might only happen after you’ve been on diet soda for a while.
