Coke Zero or Coke Zero Sugar

Who can resist those cute little aluminum cans that various Coke products can be found in these days.  I certainly could not when I saw the new Coke Zero Calorie.  I tend to stay away from artificially sweetened beverages since starting the Bulletproof Diet way of life this past January.  According to the nutritional information (sounds like a misnomer right) both products have the exact same ingredients.  So then they should taste the same, right?  However I realize that if you add a little more of something and a little less of something else it will change the flavor of what you are concocting. My guess is that the true ingredients are proprietary so we will never really know what gives Coke, Diet Coke, Coke Zero, or Coke Zero Sugar the flavors that they are infused with.  For my part after trying the new improved Coke Zero Sugar, it tastes like they upped the clove flavor a tad and there isn't the after taste quite as much as with a Diet Coke but all in all my taste buds detected very little in the way of a NEW and IMPROVED flavor.  Both products are/were sweetened with Aspartame and not sugar so they are/were both zero sugar either way.  My  house is more of a stevia group these days and we try to stay away from the lure of sugar sweet syrup disguised as thirst quenching beverages.
