Diet coke, like many other drinks and yoghurts and other sweet things, is sweetened with Nutrsweet which contains Aspartame.  It's dreadful stuff and can cause all kinds of symptoms, some folks have thought they had a brain tumour and it causes depression as well.  And yes you can get addicted.

I had a  spell years ago when I suffered from terrible depression which only started to lift when someone told me about Aspartame and I did some internet research.  Since then I've never touched the stuff, I check all labels and don't buy anything that contains it.  (British labels tend to say 'contains a source of phenylalinine').

It's quite amazing and horrifying how many products contain it - some which are sold as healthy options, and even some things you wouldn't expect like ham.

Bugger  I'd best check my labels before you come over then.

Don't worry, I just don't buy stuff that contains it for regular use, I don't believe in getting too paranoid about it.

No offence to your new-found sophisticated palette Janie, but I bloomin' hate coffee shops!

Ooops what have I started!  I was referring to our new drinks machine at work.  Instead of Cafe Latte, they have now installed Mocha.  At 4am in the morning, I'll drink anything that's likely to give me an energy boost, knowing that all the running I do whilst delivering should burn some of that fat/sugar off.  Phew!
