Diet Coke is intended to replace water. I'm still not sure if it's safe, your body produces insulin to break down sugar which isn't there, and aspartame becomes formaldehyde at 31°c. There's natural things like stevia is probably better. Do see a lot of obese people walking and eating chips whilst drinking diet cokes.

For a long time the only glass bottling plant left in North America was the Mexican plant, where they still used cane sugar instead of corn syrup.
I think they started bottling in glass in the USA to capitalize on the hype a few years ago though so it could just be in your head.

Aspartame is metabolized through gluconeogenesis of amino acids and the production of monoamines. Your body will make glucose out of it just like table sugar except now you're also increasing your nitrogenous waste.

The benefit of aspartame is that it's about 200 times sweeter than sucrose so you can cut down on calories in theory. In practice though gluttons just numb their sense of taste and double down on sugar to reach the same sweetness they've become addicted to from sugar substitutes.
