What would you choose? Classic Coke or Coke No Sugar? Read this to find out why you should choose Coke No Sugar!

WALT: I can write a shorter persuasive Post by making a claim and backing it up with reasons.
This week and part of last week, our class had a different teacher in. She was wanting us to do Persuasive writing on any topic we wanted, or a sight that Mrs. Sutherland sent to us. We all were supposed to write two. Here's my second one, I like it better.


Should we drink normal Coca Cola or should we drink the No Sugar version?

I think that the No Sugar version is the best option here. First of all, a small bottle - 600 ml - that you would get out of a public fridge is just over 2 calories. Whereas Classic Coca Cola has 258 calories.

Normal coke isn’t BAD for you, except for the sugar. It has an alarming amount of sugar, and if you drink a lot it could contribute to something to give you a disease. But the sweeteners in No Sugar Coke - acesulfame potassium & aspartame - are considered good for you (if you don’t have huge doses of aspartame).

Aspartame consists of Methanol which is wood alcohol, This turns into formaldehyde at high temperatures. Formaldehyde is flammable and toxic gas with a strong smell. It is also a Neurotoxin that can affect the Nervous System and the Brain. (Information put into my own words, but I got it from Srividya Bhaskara on Quora).

In a classic Coke, there are 16 teaspoons in 600ml. But, as it says in the name, there are none in the No sugar version.

If you like the taste of classic Coke, it’s practically the same in coke no sugar. It just doesn’t have the after taste. In Diet coke, it tastes far off of the classic taste that we all love. It is pretty good for you though. Anyway, could you tell the difference between Coke Classic and No Sugar? 

In conclusion, choose No Sugar Coke. It tastes the same, eats the same and smells the same. No, but if your a Coca Cola lover, choose No Sugar Coke. I assure you, you can’t taste the difference, and it’s way better for you.

    You clearly stated your opinion in the opening paragraph. Wow 16 teaspoons of sugar! You have definitely persuaded me into drinking No sugar coke over regular. Keep up the great work.
