Diet Coke Stuff - Shortcut

Diet Coke is the undisputed leader in diet soft sodas has been since it’s introduction in 1982 and is the third most popular soda in the U.S. trailing only Coca-Cola and Pepsi!  And now a days not only is Diet Coke being drank it is one of the two main ingrediants in one of todays most popular expierments, Diet Coke and Mentos! 

We wake up each and every morning with a Diet Coke, having our first one before we even hit the shower! We’re addicted and not ashamed to admit it! We’re also in very good company which is evident in the worlds of media and politics where the people demand the Real Thing, Diet Coke.

Diet Coke is asked for by name by a wide variety of artists, ranging from Michael W. Smith to Nine Inch Nails. The old rockers love it--REO Speedwagon, Night Ranger and the Beach Boys demand Diet Coke. So do divas Mariah Carey, Elton John and Cher. Country fried superstars Toby Keith, Shania Twain and LeAnn Rimes can't get enough. R&B and rap artists TLC and the Black Eyed Peas want their Diet Cokes, too. Even the Chairman of the Board, Frank Sinatra, had a six pack or two in his dressing room.The old rockers as well as the new ones love it.

The high and mighty are addicted as well. Donald Trump wouldn't be caught dead with a Trump Ice bottled water, preferring Diet Coke and nothing else. Harvey Weinstein, gruff and tumble head honcho of the Miramax empire, rides in a limo stocked with Diet Coke. John Edwards, failed presidential candidate, has been known to drink as many as 10 Diet Cokes while campaigning -- a habit endorsed wholeheartedly by both of the Clintons.

Coke launched Diet Coke in July, 1982 in New York City with a $100 million ad campaign, putting the swooshy wave trademark on a product other than Coca-Cola for the first time since 1886. Diet Coke was an instant smash. By Christmas of 1982, six short months since it’s debut Diet Coke had become the third most-popular soda in New York City, again trailing only Coke and Pepsi in sales.  

A year after being introduced, Diet Coke became the best selling low-calorie soft drink in America -- a position it has never relinquished. By 1986, Diet Coke -- or Coca-Cola Light, as it is known abroad -- was the most popular low-calorie beverage in the world, served in 61 countries.
