Glad to see another fan of the new Cars album. It’s very good.
I have yet to like any of the Coke Zero products. But for a sugar free soda, I understand the taste compared to regular diet soda is very noticeable.

@martymankins, Yeah, when your choices are limited to diet soda, Cherry Coke Zero is my choice. Much better than Cherry Diet Coke, oddly.

Also, now you have me craving Fruity Pebbles, which is one of the few cereals I actually like.

@Secondhand Karl, But that would mean battling the long lines at the grocery store, which is full of atheist stocking up on beer and whiskey and blue cups. No can do, man. They might mob me. I’m not going out a day early just because of a box of fruity pebbles
