I have a suggestion for you, Brad:
Stop drinking diet soda altogether.
Since you're clearly unhappy with drinking soda containing aspartame, I won't even get into that. But the molecule that is removed from sugar in order to make Splenda calorie-free is also the molecule which breaks down the sugar in your body...what this means, basically, is that Splenda actually causes weight gain.
So throw out the diet soda. Throw out the Splenda. Drink some water.

Brad,
While I applaud your efforts, If they did take your suggestions into consideration, I would hope they would still offer plain old Diet coke...as I don't want it to change in ANY way!! I love my diet coke the way it is...

I love most or all of these suggestions and have thought the same thing myself. I hope they respond to you and you share it with us.

Brad lives in Canada, so this might explain availability of certain products.

"I would like to suggest that you make non diet forms."
Non diet forms of what? Of Diet Coke? Just about everything Coke has made started out as "regular" version.
I dont know but this letter is very confusing to me. First you are asking for diet versions of the diet cokes. You want it made with Splenda...which has been on the market for quite awhile now although it isnt widely found anymore because it didnt do too well. Its not very good. Coke Zero pretty much took its place. It takes more like regular Coke Classic but its "diet". I like it better than Diet Coke and my ex husband would even drink Coke Zero and he was a die hard Coke Classic drinker.
But then you go on to ask for "non diet forms" and "non diet Caffeine Free forms" of various Coke flavors. Maybe they just arent available where you live because just about all you posted is or was sold at one time.
I only buy diet forms of Coke but not caffeine free and I never have any issue. Diet Cherry Coke is one of my favorites and I buy it often. Vanilla and Lime might be seasonal or special edition and not available all the time. Either way, I wouldnt buy them..GROSS! But Cherry Coke is ALWAYS available with full sugar and full caffeine.
Maybe I dont understand this letter. Its confusing to me but I am tired. LOL! Coke made with Splenda or any version of "fake" sugar IS considered "diet" but you want "non diet"....Oh I am soooooo confused! ROFL!!!

Great suggestions! I especially like the idea of caffeine free versions of different flavors. I am a soda junkie but gave up most caffeine a few years ago, which makes my choices rather limited. Regular Coke has always been my favorite, but I do occasionally like a different flavored soda. It would be nice if I could have a vanilla coke or cream soda once in a while without ricocheting off the walls all night!
I hate most diet soda, but I wonder if I'd be able to drink it with Splenda. Hmmm.

im wondering if Hr.Helpful or whoever puts up those pictures threw that in there as a little joke on the OP.... i know they are putting pictures in with the ltters now, but i think its kinda ironic that the OP said they wanted diet coke with spelnda, and a diet coke with splenda can happens to show up next to the picture.
if it was a joke, nice job.

It certainly is a great way to get a kid (or adult) to drink milk, and experimenting with different flavors of soda is so much fun!
That's such a nice memory of dinner at your grandparent's house, and how wise of your grandfather to have thought of it. Maybe he got the idea from Laverne... hahaha!

I don't remember if he was a Laverne & Shirley fan. Either way, this conversation brought back a neat childhood memory. I'd almost forgotten about soda milk! I may have to have some now for old time's sake...

If I order a rootbeer float and I don't get to it in time... basically it's a soda/milk.
