It's just kind of funny because soda is the absolute worst kind of sweet you could possibly have.

I don't have much experience in matters of this thread but here's this:

Looks like the main difference is that the two mixes have empty carbs as filler. For example, the Zen Party Trail Mix looks like it has rice crackers in it, going by a quick Google image search. If I had to say whether one is "healthier" (a loaded word with too many meanings), I'd say the plain almonds are. They might have more calories, but they're all natural and you're not getting processed bits mixed in with them like you are with the other two.
That said, if your goal is just to lose some weight, I'd go with whichever one keeps you satiated while meeting your caloric requirements. All of them are better choices than typical snack foods like cookies and chips.

The funniest part is I only drink diet soda (mostly). I prefer diet mountain dew to any other soda.

Why do people drink diet soda? Shit tastes like bottles farts, drink a real soda and deal with the calories.

Call me crazy but I think water tastes better than diet soda. I can't stand the fake sugar taste.

In general diet soda tastes like shit. Diet mountain dew tastes great though. I hate regular mountain dew as well.

The problem with soda is not (just) the calories, it's consuming that much simple sugar all at once
I'm addicted to Coke Zero. More for the caffeine than anything else. But it also doesn't taste like complete ass like Diet Coke.

Diet soda tastes shitty if you're used to regular. If you stop drinking regular then you actually start to enjoy diet.
I really like the cherry diet Dr. Pepper. Not as big on the regular. It actually tastes like a regular soda.

So why not drink regular soda just not for every meal? You know, like how you are supposed too.
