However, according to industry insiders, there's one drink flight attendants absolutely hate pouring for airplane passengers—and no, it's not even alcoholic. It's actually Diet Coke. Why? Well, it's because Diet Coke has a tendency to fizz more than its sugary counterparts and takes longer to pour. Some quick chemistry: the sugar (or high-fructose corn syrup) used in regular soda increases the liquid's viscosity ever-so-slightly, and causes larger bubbles to form. The larger the bubble, the more rapidly it will pop—which means there's actually[I] less[/I] fizz. Diet soda is less-viscous and sugar-free, which means that it actually fizzes [I]more.[/I] [/QUOTE]
