Anyone else seen/used one of these yet?

Had several tastes from one in a Burger King just north of Charleston, WV over Memorial Day weekend on our trip to Ohio. Diet Coke raspberry. Ymmm...

How many pitstops did you make on the rest of the trip?
"What..again?"
"Blame the cherry coke! And the raspberry after it, and that lemon one!"

Only 1 more pit stop in the remaining 180 miles of the trip. Mrs. DD had 2 glasses of raspberry lemonade iced tea, too.

Firehouse Subs in WS has a machine like this. It's fun. I usually go for a cherry limeade or the like.

Probably won't get one of those out here in the sticks for at least another 10 years! Enjoy a vanilla coke for me!

Do you think the pirate would respond to this thread?

Now, if they could just program the machine to put a shot of rum in the drink. . .

I always loved a good Vanilla (Diet or reg) Coke. Also, liked the Coke (Diet or reg) with Lime.

There's one in the cafeteria next door to me at work. Vanilla diet coke is my new favorite.

Oooooooooh... I prefer the Diet Caffeine-Free Vanilla Coke.

I must admit a fondness for Diet Coke with Lime. Have never seen it on tap, but most Wawa stores around here have the 20 oz bottles. Will have to try the vanilla one of these days...

The Cherry Vanilla Diet Dr. Pepper was pretty tasty, too.

Doesn't adding a sugary shot of flavor ruin the point of getting diet? Don't get me wrong, I love those machines, just not sure how that works.

I'm guessing it probably adds 10-15 calories or less so I'm not worried about it. I exercised an extra 15 minutes the next day to work off my indulgences . I also had a couple ounces of cherry lemonade but did not like that flavor/combo that much.

Not to mention all those 4 oz. "samples" on the brewery tour...

I imagine that in the world there are only like 10 or 20 "really good" flavors. So what kind of gawdawful choices make up the remaining 80? "mmmmm, that artichoke coke (herefore after called "articoke") was delicious".

Well, I believe that the different sodas count as well, so cherry coke, cherry dr. pepper, and cherry sprite count as three flavors. So if you have several varieties of soda multiplied by five or so additives, it gets to 100 pretty fast.

That was the next day.
