Last night before turkey dinner, I was making some drinks. Rum and (sugar-free, calorie-free) cola. I started making mine with Diet Coke, but my brother insisted he wanted his with Coca-Cola Zero. So I looked at the labels, and I blinked. Then I read the ingredient lists of both, and I blinked again. Then I scratched my head, and blinked once more. Huh? I can’t tell the difference. Can you tell the difference?
