Coca-Cola… you know it, you love it. But you better cherish it while you can. Why? Well, the end of Coke is right around the corner! That’s right, Loyal Theorists, it’s time to start hoarding a fridge full of Coca-Cola because in a few short years it may become a relic of the past. So crack open a cold can and let us explain…

When coke did its rebrand of Coke Zero recently, I grabbed one accidentally thinking it was a regular coke, horrible surprise haha. Unfortunately for a lot of consumers like myself, the after taste of artificial sugars will continue to make zero sugar and diet sodas less desirable
I mean, I see what you’re saying. I’ve had ones in the past that made me want to just put the can in the fridge till it goes flat eventually and I have to pour it out. But I’m starting to gravitate towards the zero coke and hadn’t noticed a horrible taste the last time I tried it.
@@BolteckFoxThat's because they changed the formula (again) and now it tastes exactly like the normal Coke. At least for me it does. There might be a small difference but it's not enough for me to care, and certainly not enough to justify consuming hundreds of empty calories.
As someone who has always hated diet soda, these Zero sugar versions are really winning me over. I'll probably never touch a regular Coke again lol
They mess with your body. Diet stuff should be avoided if you're on a diet or/and are trying to lose weight.
It's a real thing. The soda isn't any calories sure, but they way it screws up your body makes you take in way way more next meal and make you way more likely to crave high calorie foods... It's horrible how they market these drinks.
They are for diabetics and other special medical conditions only...
this is late, but it's fascinating how familiarity can change people's preferences, since I've had to drink Diet Coke my whole life due to having Diabetes. They didn't even have Coca-Cola Zero when I was growing up lol. So I was so used to the Diet version that when I drank the regular kind, it tasted bad to me and left an after taste, but for me the Diet version didn't lol. So I was surprised when people who didn't have to drink the Diet version would say it had an after taste, but it seems very common lol.
Pop not soda
Even though I'm a heavy Pepsi drinker, I love how Coca-Cola has kept their trademark logo for decades.
…
They’re the same thing

MatPat's Diet Coke Addiction will single-handedly save Coca-Cola and keep the business alive.
I think it’s very possible
to be fair mat made a video a couple years back trying new drinks to replace diet coke so he has back ups
To be fair, the artificial sweetners used in diet coke have been found to cause an increase in inflammatory bowel diseases. The sweetners cause the bacteria to burrow into the lining and cause inflammation.
Maybe that much sweet taste or sugar isn't healthy after all?
I'm glad I don't drink sodas anymore. They're way too sweet! I can barely taste the flavour besides the sugar.
I drink on average a can of beer daily though. Not healthier, but I prefer the taste and the lack of sugar rush.
Please, MatPat's Diet Coke addiction is pretty much American standard for soft drinks.They have millions that drinks like him.
despite the only problem that Diet Coke is actually worse than real coke
it has like two sources of poison
To be honest they're gonna shut down before he even gets a chance to save them
And it all comes down to two different ways either he dies or he isn't fast enough
This was great!
Nyc

Wow
Nice
Nice
Coming from an advertising agency that had handled the Coke brand, this is such a well informed and researched video. Good job guys!
Too bad zero still sucks and no amount of advertising will ever compensate for the terrible flavour.
If there is a choice between zero and coke, and they took coke away. i would rather drink water. Zero is just that bad, that WATER tastes better
@@MinkieWinkle lol totally agree!
Tbh, I'm really happy about the zero sugar being more accessible since I'm somewhat newly diabetic. Got type 1 last year and the change was very hard but diet coke being so similar to the normal sugar was a great help

Honestly having a sugar free version that is indistinguishable from the original is probably a good thing for our overall health (unless it involves artificial sweeteners that have negative effects on health, in which case maybe not).
It may be a while before they can actually pull it off though...
Oh my god That makes so much sense !! The amount of times I bought coke zero thinking it was coke and drank it half way before realising it was the wrong one is astonishing tbh. Now it makes sense why that happened
Dan has always made us happy whenever Matt is sick or lost his voice

Yesss Dan 🔛🔝
I'm 100th like!
The minute I saw the news, I knew MatPat stopped whatever he was doing, just to do the mother of all researches. And I was perhaps doubting a little. Thanks, Dan.
He probably saw the new FNaF trailer for the first time.
In Germany diet coke is called coca cola light. Seems, we never liked the word diet😅. Also interesting to hear they changed the flavor of the cola zero, since I like that better now than when it first appeared.
"Drink water, bye!"
Matpat: and I took that personally.

On the “no sugar” trend, can you guys do a video about why Starbucks literally discontinued every single “sugar-free” syrup?
They still have sugar free vanilla. My go to order is a latte with sugar free vanilla and oatmilk for a low-carb keto Starbucks order.
@@SumoLucas I don’t count the vanilla since anywhere and everywhere could have it. I’m talking about everything else. Mocha, cinnamon, peppermint, caramel, hazelnut etc. seems like a good way to lose customers
I worked at Starbucks from 2015-2019 we didn’t sell much of these even though we did sell a ton of skinny vanilla. It’s mostly because of low marketing.Think about how alternative milks like oat and almond are incorporated in to popular drinks, but not sugar free syrups. Could have reformulated and re rereleased but no.
It's hard to argue Coke is smart when they won't even make a Sucralose version of their drink. Coke Zero is still Aspartame which is POOP! Until they make one using Sucralose like Monster did, I wouldn't even begin to take this seriously. This video is just more hype to get views for the channel, nothing more.
Probs something to do with the artificial sweeteners being bad for human consumption xD
Dan did a great job! I’d love to hear him more often!
They said sugar free stuff is deadly, I would like to know more about it.
Everything is deadly in high enough doses, even oxygen. The studies that link aspartame with cancer were done on rats (which are kinda just little tumor factories), and at dosages that are WAY higher than what you'd get from a coke.
Some artificial sweeteners have been estimated to believe that in high quantities are carcinogenic. However the research isn’t concrete yet.
Food theory idea for you guys: Does ginger ale help when you're sick? If not, what drink would be best?
Water
@MrSucksAtLifei bond that spirit in Jesus name don’t ever come back
Cool ideea
Ginger Ale doesn’t have any ginger (at least in the form that’d provide those benefits) in it (see the Canada Dry lawsuit). Just drink lemon and ginger tea or water
water…
I'd love to see a Food Theory video addressing sugar substitutes. I've seen other media address how many sugar substitutes aren't as bad for you as the rumors suggest, and how the major sugar companies have villified these so they don't lose sales. I'd like to hear MatPat's take on this.
The evidence indicates they aren't any better for you than sugary drinks over the long term.
@@sarahsmith840wrong. Do your research.
The EU just released a new statement on that too. Good idea!
Well they mostly taste like crap
@@sarahsmith840 what evidence, please show it cuz as far as ive seen there are very few sweeteners that are harmful
All of these new coke flavors must be a US thing, because where I live I haven't even seen one of the flavors he mentioned. The only things we've had in the last few years is Coke Life, Coke Cherry and Coke Vanilla. Sure, Fanta had it's Mystery Taste, but I don't think it sailed.
Edit: As an added note they created the new bottle caps that is attached to the bottle even after you take it off because of "littering of bottle caps". However, it just makes me want to litter more, not less because the cap is always in the way of drinking.
6:54 that exact design misled me so many times lol, especially when i was in a hurry and had to catch a train. i hate it!😆
Its crazy how I can hear Dan say the line of the script then reimagine it in Matt's voice and be 99% confident that I got Matt's inflection and tone correct in my head.
dan: roughly a ten percent decrease
mat: MORE than a, and get this, TEN PERCENT DECREASE!
you too?
Man, honestly? Dan's voice is like, super fitting announcer/voice-over material. It most definitely wasn't MatPat but he was pleasant to listen to. :D
It works - especially for food theory
Im always happy to see Dan engaging in videos, he is a good narrator as well
Honestly, it’s nice to hear other voices I think it be best if you had someone for some food theory videos and movie theory videos.
Dan did an excellent job with the voiceover! Props to him for helping out in the recording closet while MatPat's voice is gone.
He's great! I was literally on my way down into the comment section to say something similar. :D
To be honest, My preference of soda has changed drastically since I started watching Game Theory. To put it simply, my enjoyment of something is greatly increased when I connect that item to something. Like how every time I drink Diet Coke, I think of MattPatt's obsession over them, so my enjoyment of the soda is much higher.
i think thats how its been for me over the years as well. more so the recent last 3 years. i was avidly buying tons more energy drinks for instance monster pringles as the food and rockstar at times or other junk food purely because the premotional content on the products adheared to unlocking free things through a code on the games i played. even those i didnt really play anymore, i would still buy them to eat drink and use the codes for the games i had. the halo infinate codes, the apex legends codes, i think at one point even the MW II codes were the few games i had that i would tend to buy these products more often because it was relatable and a sick way to chill out knowing i have something new and to chill out and show off.
when i played the early seasons of halo infinate with the premotional content going into BTB and seeing so many players with the sick oreo premotional skin looked so sick and made me want to buy oreos just to try and get it. it was annoying tho because it was on the oreo thins which i wont buy because i prefer the original. even tho i stopped playing apex, i was buying monster energy drinks anyway so i thought i might as well buy the ones that have the free codes and content just so i have things most people dont in the game if i were to ever return to it. the only ones i really got from MW II i think were some stickers, emblems and xp tokens as i didnt buy many of them.
His marketing is working
I love when Dan graces us with presence.
11:07 I don't think I've ever heard anything this relatable
As someone who is allergic to Aspartame, this “no sugar” trend is making me nervous! I already can’t chew gum … don’t tell me soda is next
welp hate to break it to ya, but multiple sodas already use aspartame. Personally i just stick to kool-aid + soda water (so i can add my own suger) or mexican coca-cola whenever i can find it (it uses raw cane suger, and tastes better imo)
You should try Pur brand gum, its aspartame free. They use xylitol which is dentist recommended since it’s good for your teeth because it reduces acid in the mouth and starves bacteria.
You can always get a carbonation machine and make your own soda (and coke) with soda syrups and your sweetener of choice.
I'm sensitive to a few types of sweeteners (migraines) and it's so hard to find drinks I can have, I've been relying on Coke Classic mainly haha
I get headaches with sweeteners, Coke is my last bastian but my Exit strategy is no alcohol or even low alcohol beers, no joke, I can pick up a case of generic "stubbies" at 2% alcohol CHEAPER than coke per litre, you can make home made "lilt" with fruit juces water and sugar syrup, then soda stream it as a sweet refreshment.
Seriously, if the industry or Government don't want my money/want all my money for a glass of pop then screw em
My mom would drink a Coke a day for the caffeine. She switched to Coke Zero, figuring that would help her lose weight. She started experiencing all sorts of aches and pains and doctors told her she had arthritis in her 50s. It got so bad she would need me to push the grocery cart for her.
I came across an article in Reader’s Digest about a woman who recovered from her debilitating pain after she stopped drinking zero calorie flavored water with artificial sweeteners. So my mom quit the daily Coke Zero habit and suddenly all the pain vanished.
She’s 73 now. She still doesn’t have arthritis
Wow woooof
Well ain't that something
And that is why I’m never drinking diet or sugar free sodas. Idc if it’s the last sodas available- I’ll GLADLY take the sugar over whatever weird stuff they put in those "diet" sodas
Wait- how does that happen?!????
@@kelvisaisawesome Her body must have been reacting to it with inflammation which caused pain

I'd definitely tell the difference- I'm highly allergic to artificial sweeteners so one sip of zero sugar anything would mess me up bad-

It’s awful how they’re trying to trick people. I’ve accidentally drunk several beverages here in Switzerland because they don’t disclose the artificial sweeteners clearly on the front. I guess I have to get in the habit of reading every single beverage’s ingredients (which is hard when you’re buying something unfamiliar from behind the counter at the boulangerie 😕)
Same here.
It was bad enough that I had to switch to Coke after Pepsi betrayed me, if Coke does the same they can kiss my money goodbye...

@@Labyrinth9885 It can't fart. It's a spam bot.
another thing to note is that the special coke flavors that centered the zero sugar versions of them, is that the only way to buy them in bulk is in the 10 packs of mini cans, which im assuming is another health thing like "oh im having soda but its only a little bit so it will be fine" I've noticed these things while working in grocery
It's worse than you think, this is shrinkflation to the extreme being sold as a positive. A regular 12 pack of coke costs appx. $8.00 at my local grocery store, and contains 144 fl oz of product. The Mini version has 10 cans at 7.5 fl oz per can and costs $6.50 for 75 fl oz of product. You're basically paying 19% less for 50% of the product.
Does diet coke really has 0 calories??
@@tristanpiandoro6275 It's anywhere from 1-5 calories. They're allowed to say 0 calories due to it being below 5 calories.
I see 20 packs of regular zero sugar cans all the time when shopping (regular coke goes up to 24 packs, both are priced the same)
@@cbegefdkih yeah regular zero sugar, but the SPECIAL cokes, LIKE I SAID, have only MINI CANS zero sugar or not
Imatpat with his diet coke : its not a phase ,its a life style.

This is happening pretty steadily with Monster energy too, lots of no sugar options and usually the free sample booths are only sugar free
Dan's voice is fantastic, and Matthew seems to be putting too much strain on his voice too often, so I'm hoping Team Theorist makes Dan a permanent part of VO duties (as in regularly scheduled to take on a small percentage, not just emergency coverage), so Matthew has regular voice rests.

MATPAT NEEDS TO DO THE GRIMACE SHAKE
Let us all say goodbye to MatPat’s sanity (if he had any left) as he lets go of his beloved Diet Coke. 👏🏻
are we sure that diet coke will really be gone? cuz every where I go, I only see coke, and I like it... :)
I actually switched to Coke Zero after they tweaked the tatse the last time. I needed to cut down on sugar and honestly, I think it taste pretty much the same.
Thats crazy I always think about whether coffee is soup everytime im at starbucks now
I’d like to see a theory about aspartame and other artificial sweeteners. Growing up in a diabetic household I was told that sugar-free stuff was deadly because of how the body processed the fake sugar. Still can’t get over jt
Everything in moderation. The early studies are showing that artificial sweeteners can impact the gut micro biome negatively. I just cut down on simple sugars and eat more whole plant foods with fibers. I also exercise and sleep good. Also maintain a social life. People miss the importance of these few factors, and gut micro biome may be one of the biggest influence on our health. I wouldn’t mess with it by consuming artificial sweeteners. Maybe once in a while is fine, especially if you’re gonna have soda every once in a while and have the artificial sweetener version of it instead. But ideally you wouldn’t be putting that kinda stuff in your body in the first place, since there’s way too much simple sugar in one can/bottle.
ok
Erythritol is a really good sugar alternative in my experience. None of the downsides, gets metabolized differently from other fake sugars, and the sugar-free Monster Energies already use it if you want to know how good it really is.
@@JoeARedHawk275 Ignoring gut microbiome, there are recent studies that point to artificial sweeteners, specifically sucralose, being genotoxic.
Still there are people that have negative reactions to artificial sugars. For example it can induce headaches that have chronic migraine illnesses
I kinda do love having Dan be the voice for the videos, especially when he's judging the script. Also that cold open ENDED ME "NO YOUR TEARS WONT TASTE LIKE DIET COKE"

I’ve also noticed in stores like Walmart for example I’m often finding Coke Zero’s and the zero sugar versions of the Coke Creations drinks are usually placed in more natural/prominent spots than the full sugar versions.
That's not a choice Wal-Mart is making, that's what Coke demands of their vendors, since they are the ones that send out the schematic for product placement.
@@kumiho4970 I know it is. Many brands especially large brands like Coke, or Oreo for cookies those companies often get a lot of say as to exactly how and where there products is displayed.

@@MrSucksAtLife 0_0 dark...
Yeah, at work they have a fridge full of sodas, and they put the Cherry Coke and the Cherry Coke Zero next to each other, so I thought it was all regular Cherry Coke for awhile and avoided buying any, but noticed the Zero Sugar label eventually. So diet Dr. Pepper got my money instead, for I don't know how long.
I love Coke and can still definitely taste the difference between it and zero sugar. If I have to choose I will choose the 'classic' Coke. If they're able to make zero sugar taste exactly like it, I'll be fine with drinking it. But also, to combat the high sugar in Coke, I cut it out except for when I have takeaway or am eating out and not having it at home. Sometimes, I have a different drink instead of Coke when out or with takeaway. I know for others it's not that easy, but if you take baby steps, it can work. I started by replacing Coke with a different, less sugary soda, cordial or juice at home, then replaced that with another less sugary drink. Now I drink more water and sometimes have soda, cordial or juice at home. I don't have a sugary drink every day and drink more water, sometimes with some flavouring. This has worked for me, and I hope it can help others who want to cut down on sugary drinks.

As much as I love Matt it is honestly refreshing to hear full videos with other key players voices for the whole thing.
agree to disagree
I Love Head Editor Dan!!! 😍😍 I hope he narrates more videos! (!!!!!) He’s high energy and stayed on brand with his delivery, but he speaks at a reasonable, moderate pace and has a really nice voice. Also, what a brilliant video, as my husband called it. Coke is, indeed, a company of evil geniuses. They think ahead, unlike a whole list of companies that aren’t around any more, specifically because they didn’t do that.
Star Light was awesome! Tried keeping extra bottles, but drank them all haha
Head editor Dan, you did really really good. Can we get more special episodes with you from time to time? 🥰
I honestly like him more. I find Matts voice irritating
Listen, I don't want to see less MatPat, but I definitely do want to see more Dan and Stephanie. I think they've done a really good job subbing in.
Where I live Peach Nehi is still pretty popular, especially with older people.
Theorists team!
PLEASE PLEASE do a theory on the epic lemon-lime soda showdown!
Sprit VS Starry VS 7-up VS Sierra Mist !!
Surprised this wasn’t about the recent report about aspartame being a potential carcinogen. Also, I *really* liked the space soda. It was really novel. But then, I’m not much of a soda drinker.
Weren’t people already talking about this for years? I remember 10 years ago hearing people talk bad about aspartame and how it could cause cancer
Yeah I've been really worried for mat for a long time now
People are blowing it out of proportion. They only are going to put it in "possibly carcinogenic" with stuff like pickled vegetables, talc based baby powder, gasoline, and welding fumes. The group above it has frying emissions, red meat, and night shift work but no one is freaking out about those.
@@anthonynguyen1289I also remember hearing like 15 years ago, people coming out and exposing that aspartame was made from the fermented waste of e coli bacteria. I never touched it again after that cuz ewww. They've spent millions keeping others quiet to preserve their brand so honestly it wouldn't surprise me.
Yeah, it can cause cancer in rats, not much evidence of it causing cancer in humans. Best not to drink a lot of it in any case.
I love hearing Dan in VO! He’s so fun! I also kinda enjoy the idea that Dan is taking this video (which is so clearly a Matpat theory after his own heart, I mean a theory about THE NECTOR OF THE GODS?!) so that Matt can grieve. I’m all for the team joining in the recording closet!!
You guys should do a video on Aspartame, a sweetener in coke zero which could be a carcinogen, would love to know what i’m actually drinking.
Love hearing the entire crew!
