I found it at a Target. The cans are black and have cherries with holes in the middle so they look like zeros. And it is delicious!

I think I'm probably in the minority in my preference for diet flavor colas over regular/zero ones.

It's true. Diet > Zero.

I haven't tried Coke Zero yet. I did try C2 and liked that. It was refreshing and crisp and not too sweet.

Zero tastes more like regular Coke, which is why I like it. I miss the spiciness when I drink Diet.

still searching for mexican coke here... made with pure sugar cane instead of high fructose corn syrup

NickDavid: Where are you? Jersey? If so, I'd suggest trying small Mexican-operated bodegas in neighborhoods with larger Mexican populations. I've had good luck finding Mexican Cokes at such places. In Brooklyn, for instance, where I live, there's a tiny bodega on Fifth Avenue in Park Slope, Jacy Carniceria, which carries Mexican Coke and Pepsi, etc. I'm guessing that Sunset Park in Brooklyn would also be a good bet.
You'll know the Mexican Cokes because the bottle is a bit bigger than those 6-ounce (or are they 8-ounce?) Coke bottles. They're probably more like 14-ounce or so. They're sold individually with product-info stickers affixed to them. But like serious-eater DanDickinson mentioned here, "it should be noted that Mexican Coke usually mentions that the sweetener can be either sugar *or* high fructose corn syrup. I think I've tasted both varieties."

Forgive my soda ignorance here....I do not drink "pop" (as we call it here in Michigan) very often but I am curious what the difference is between Zero and Diet.

I KNOW!
I found this at the deli on the corner here in NYC..............I was embarassingly excited.

The difference is in the cola syrup recipe. What I've been told is that Diet Coke uses the New Coke syrup even though that was abandoned for the non-diet version, whereas Coke Zero uses the Classic Coke syrup.
I have no idea if this is true or not.
