With fizzy drinks I found it very easy to shift towards flavored seltzers instead of it’s the fizz specifically. And if it’s sodas… Zero sugar soda tastes 99% the same as regular due to the mix of multiple sweeteners. Totally different from diet sodas which usually just use one or two, usually aspartame which also has a strong aftertaste.
If possible for chocolate, higher quality products often will hit that craving better than the cheap candy bar type stuff with 5x the amount of sugar.
Unless you have hypersensitivities and can taste the sweeteners lmao. Though I have to say that most of regular sodas taste like chemicals too, so it’s not that different either way
Be somewhat wary of artificial sweeteners, most of them are relatively new and so have unwanted side effects ore unknown side effect. (I geuss it’s like vaping : better than smoking but not great). Some known ones include : --cancer-- (edit : the cancer part is wrong aparently, see coment bellow) and obesity because you body cranks your calorie retention to the max (it sees a full can of something that tastes very much like sugar go in and no calories come out so it goes "wow, i’m really bad at extracting and storing energy. Let’s improve that ! And you get fucked next time you eat sugar) anyways, as with everything, be mindfull with consumption
Well til, anyways, i’m not telling you that articficial sweeteners are worse than sugar, i’m telling you that you might not want to take too much artificial sugar.
It gets easier if you go 100% cold turkey for a few months; I stopped any kind of refined sugar in like 2016 and now more subtle sweetnesses stand out, and the occasion I eat things like ice cream with chocolate or a glazed jelly donut makes me physically ill.
I was recently given a monster and holy shit people drink that, by choice? Why is there so much??

Even more amazing is that people paint the Monster logo (the three claw marks) on their fucking cars. Imagine getting your sense of self-worth from your overpriced energy taurine drink of choice.
I had this too. After a month without sugar, I lost the taste for it. I can do a few spoons of icecream or a tiny bit of cake, but that’s it. I can eat a shit ton of sweet fruit though. I ate 4 mangoes in a day. (Don’t do that.)
Consider also reducing your sugar intake!
I really struggle with this one. I love sugary treats. Chocolate, fizzy drinks, etc.

I was gonna say, I can not only taste the difference, but I also get violent diarrhea whenever I drink the zero-sugar sodas.

The aspartame cancer study is a complete joke. They fed those mice a x1000 higher concentration of sweetener than any human would ever eat

You’re not my supervisor!
Don’t do drugs.
Hint: sugar is a drug
TFW experiencing all the symptoms of addiction to sugar: “I must not be drinking enough water 🤔”
