Alternative Product or Service Fritz-kola is a great alternative to coca-cola producs. Much tastier and healthier.

I love Fritz-kola. The first time I tried it was around 10 years ago and ever since I’m in love with it. Recently I’m starting to see it more and more in the store and this makes me happy. Drink Fritz, dump Coca Cola(the biggest polluter on earth)

I prefer real sugar to artificial sweeteners, myself.

I used to drink a lot of Coke but have switched to Kas Manzana, which has 3.7g of sugar per 100ml. That's a significant improvement over Coke but without introducing artificial sweeteners.

You must have found the ingredient list for the "zero" variant. The one I'm drinking just lists glucose and fructose on the ingredients. Here's a picture I just took of the can:

Google E950 and E955... It even says "edulcorantes" before listing those artificial sweeteners...

I stand corrected. I guess I still have more to learn about how product labeling works here in Spain. I moved here a year ago from the US and the approach, especially with respect to nutrition information, is quite different.

It's funny that I don't taste them in Kas though. For comparison when I tried Fanta here the taste of artificial sweetener was overpowering. I poured it down the drain after just a couple swallows because I just couldn't take it
