The first time I tasted Diet Coke, it was awful. I don't even remember when I first had it, but I remembered the bad aftertaste. So, here I am today and guess what I'm sipping? Yep, Diet Coke. My mum hadn't finished her 24-pack of DC before going back home to Italy, so instead of this soda going to waste, I decided to have a can here and there. Much to my surprise, the taste has greatly improved… At least, there's no weird aftertaste anymore — that or my tongue has “matured”. ROFL.
Does this mean I'll be ordering Diet Coke from now on? Probably not. But at least I know I can drink that stuff now! Next step: Dr. Pepper.
