“Stop making new flavors of Diet Coke. The original flavor, chemicals, is already perfect”

Many people say that Diet Coke is made of chemicals—and that they like the chemicals. “Stop making new flavors of Diet Coke. The original flavor, chemicals, is already perfect” was posted on X/Twitter by Alison Leiby on March 21, 2019, but is no longer available.
 
“Please stop making new flavors of Coca-cola. Either put the cocaine back or leave it alone” is a related saying.
   
 
Wikipedia: Diet Coke
Diet Coke (also branded as Coca-Cola Light, Coca-Cola Diet or Coca-Cola Light Taste) is a sugar-free and low-calorie soft drink produced and distributed by the Coca-Cola Company. It contains artificial sweeteners instead of sugar. Unveiled on July 8, 1982, and introduced in the United States one month later,[2] it was the first new brand since Coca-Cola’s creation in 1886 to use the Coca-Cola trademark, although Diet Coke is not listed as a Coca-Cola variant on the Coca-Cola Company’s website
