  • Diet Rite cola

    Can you have this on induction. It is made with splenda. If you can what are the carbs. There are none on the lable.

    According to their website one can of
    Diet Rite Cola
    Nutrition Facts - 8 oz. SERVING
    Serving Size 12 fl oz (355ml)
    is the equivalent of 1.5 servings. So I would count as Dr Atkins said 1 carb per serving of artificial sweetener, making each can contain 1.5 carbs to be counted towards the three servings of sweetener he allows us per day.

    These 3 servings a day should include each amount of sweetener in foods as well as drinks.
    Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?

      Yes Diet Rite is one of the only diet sodas that is made with splenda and not aspartame. I mix heavy cream in a rock glass with some when I want a treat

        7up actually used to make their diet pops with Splenda as well. We also have here in California a Diet Coke with Splenda, I have seen it few times in Safeway and *I think* in Walmart too. But the caffeine would be an issue there!

              If you can make it to North or South Carolina we have Diet Cheerwine and it's made with Splenda. But, as the commercial used to say, "It's a Carolina thing." I've also just recently seen the Coke made with Splenda.

                Got this from some other site, not sure if these are all still made or where to buy them other then online. I've had the various Hansen flavors and they are pretty decent, though my personal favorite is the Diet Rite tangerine. As a former Diet Coke addict I find the Diet Rite Cola pretty nasty, though perhaps thats because my tongue still has the idea of Diet Coke as being what a cola should taste like =)

                    Is that the only sweetener used? I found when I started Atkins that some products had a large 'made with splenda' message on the pack but also contained other non-legal sweeteners!!

                    Also remember that drinks with fruit/veg juices in them are not 'legal' till you reach the rung that includes that fruit/veg!

                      Sprite Zero has no caffiene and is made with Splenda. I don't drink it though. I don't like the way it makes me feel.

                        According to the Coca-Cola Company Web site, Sprite Zero has NO sucrulose. It has aspartame and some other artificial sweetner that is not splenda.

                          Crap! No wonder it made me feel bad! I'm glad I don't drink it. Thanks for that. I swear the one I bought had a splenda sticker on it. I must have gone from looking at the Coke zero to the Sprite zero thinking they were both splenda.

                            One thing I have noticed is that some products which have a 'made with splenda' sticker also contain other sweeteners, so we do need to read labels to make sure!

                              I'm kinda feeling now that coke did that on purpose. The had all this campaign about coke zero being with splenda and stuff. It tricked me.

                              No wonder it tasted like crap. I don't like anything flavored with aspertame. It gives me a bad feeling.

                              I am better off without it anyway. If I just have to have something. I will stick with the diet rite...it's cheaper anyway.
