Well, what I want to know is, WHY are you guys selling the diet drinks SEPARATELY from the regular stuff if they taste EXACTLY THE SAME? I clearly am missing something here. I mean, if they were really EXACTLY the same except for the carb/calorie content, nobody in their right mind is going to choose the "normal stuff"! Nobody goes to a grocery store saying, "Hmm... I feel like buying some Dr. Pepper with extra glucose. Mmm, calories!". Obviously the stores aren't convinced either, since they haven't put any effort in to simply taking their BASE products, removing some of the unhealthy stuff, and selling it as their main product! Everyone knows the real reason they separate the two products is that one tastes like crap, the other doesn't. Case settled. :-P
