Cavalcade of Awesome

Are you taking vitamin supplements once a day? That’s just plain crazy. Do you wish that you could drink in not only your daily caffeine intake, but your vitamin/mineral supplements as well? Well the soda genie has decided to grant you this wish. Now you can get caffeine and vitamins (and minerals!) through one handy, liquid-y vehicle: Diet Coke Plus (DC+, click picture to left for larger image). With this new soda, there’s no need to watch what you eat. Screw salads, weight watchers, even vegetables. Drink DC+, you’ll get all the vitamins and minerals your body craves, PLUS caffeine and sodium. IT’S THAT EASY. Thanks, Coca-Cola, Inc!!!

I just found this beauty at Wal-Mart today. I’d heard about it, but didn’t realize it had been released. Brilliant idea don’t you think (Hello, my name is sarcasm)? I’m not sure I get it, but be prepared because Coke and Pepsi are going to be releasing many new flavors (or remixes of existing flavors) in the coming months. Coke just released Diet Coke Plus and Vault Red Blitz (see next article). Pepsi will be releasing Diet Pepsi Max this summer and a special Halo 3 version of Mountain Dew in August. Pepsi also released in limited markets a new Diet Pepsi Jazz flavor, Caramel & Cream. This makes for an interesting summer, for me at least as I love new soda flavors.

Anway, the taste of DC+ is sweeter than regular Diet Coke. The sweetener used in DC+ is actually a mixture of the sweeteners they use in regular Diet Coke and Coke Zero. So the taste is somewhat in between Coke Zero and Diet Coke. This is to say that it’s better than regular Diet Coke (which I hate), but not as good as Coke Zero (which I really like).

And hey, you are also getting some vitamins and minerals to boot, so it’s all win-win baby. WIN-WIN. Drink up.
