Hurts my stomach
I have been drinking more than 2.5 litres of coke zero almost every day for 20 years. Recently changed to coke no sugar and have been experiencing stomach discomfort and pain. After reading many people online have had the same issue, I'm glad I'm not alone. Luckily there are still a few bottles of coke zero to save for a rainy day and perhaps it's a good lifestyle change for me to drink more water!

Great Flavors
I find coke No Sugar very palatable and most important no after taste of sugar substitute like there was with Diet Coke.

Very poor
Changed to the new model after being a 1 liter a day drinker. Suffered from feeling ill, terrible headaches, spaced out, and nauseous. Tried it for several days with the same results. Went back to the remaining bottles of the old formula with no ill effects at all. Tipped the bottles of the new formula down the drain. They made an effective drain cleaner.

It's sweeter:(
Just tried it and I'm disappointed. It's much sweeter for me compared to coke zero which I usually buy. closer to Pepsi max almost. My daughter also agrees its quite different - are they trying to lose customers?

Coke No Sugar tastes flat and boring
Have been drinking Coke Zero and No Sugar ever since it came on the market in Australia. The new recipe has made it flat and tasteless. No pleasure in drinking it anymore. My daughter and son agrees with me wholeheartedly. We're switching to soda water...

Finally realised what has been making me so ill
For the past few months, I've been suffering from severe stomach pain and cramps to the point of even visiting the doctor to find out what is wrong. It's only now, that I realise it's actually the new coke no sugar recipe. I've been an avid drinker of the original coke zero and then coke no sugar V1 so nothing in my drinking habits has changed except for the formula of my go-to drink. I can see that a few other reviews mirror my statement. The new recipe is making people ill. What a shame

The formula change does not taste like Coke anymore
Plain Soda water tastes better. There is no sweetness at all just a bitter after taste and a sourness. The can I got was manyfactured December 2021. My son got one that was manufactured February 2022 and just as bad. Definitely switching to Pepsi Max now.

Change the formula back
Tastes like generic cola. The previous recipe was much better. If they don't change it back, I might have to switch to Pepsi Max! Seriously change it back. It was great the way it was.

What else is in this stuff?
The aspartame in this is too much. I can not drink it because it gives me gastritis (stomach cramps). There is something about this formulation that my body doesn't like.

Every can I open appears to be flat.
I purchased 3 x 36 can cartons of Coke No Sugar from Costco on 10 Feb 2022.
Each can has very little fizz and tastes like syrup. Previous cartons purchased from Costco have all been great. It appears, by reading other reviews, the recipe has been changed again.
This version is disgusting and I won't be purchasing Coke No Sugar again.

For some reasons, Coke no sugar tastes bitter now for me. It also has a strange taste that lingers.
I do not like it.
I think i will buy Fanta or sunkist.

Why change what isn’t broken :(
Before the taste change I used to love Coke Zero too much. I won’t ever buy it again now, Pepsi Max is king. Why fix what isn’t broken, such a shame.

Used to love it, not now
Not a good taste, also leaves a peculiar after taste that lingers. Also goes flat quite quickly which is disappointing, I drink 600ml bottles most of the time, please bring back the previous version, switching to Pepsi max

Questions & Answers
Why has the price at Coles of 2 ltr Coke no suger risen by over $1. There has been a huge cost increase
The new coke no sugar is so bad I've gone back to diet coke and even sprite no sugar. Occasionally I see the old cans in retail outlets and I snatch them up. Coke needs to admit they made a mistake with the new coke no sugar and go back to the original. Huge mistake.
I agree although nothing would make me go to Diet Coke. I may have to switch to Sodastream.
I loved Coke Zero, then I warmed to the taste of No Sugar however I have a new carton with the #shareacoke and it tastes horrible. Has the formula changed?
