There are variants like Cola Zero that have artificial sweetener and unlike Cocacola light, Cola Zero tastes good:

Not being from the UK, does Coke still actually contain real sugar?
Most parts of the world with few exceptions, like the Us got some sort of real sugar in it. Only time i get fruktose (corn syrup) is when i drink imported, like Cola Cherry.

That's quite far from the truth. In fact, aspartame is a combination of naturally occuring amino acids. When digested, aspartame is broken down into these amino acids again. The synthesis process is of course done on an industrial scale, but that is not relevant to the possible toxicity of aspartame itself.
People should read up more on basic (bio)chemistry and toxicology. The fear of monosodium glutamate (MSG), which occurs naturally in many foods has the same cause, a lack of knowledge and respect for science.
Thank you.

I wish I could drink some coca cola right now. 
It's the greatest thing to ever come out of my state!
