About Coca-Cola Light
Coca-Cola Light is the name used for Diet Coke across much of Europe, Latin America and Asia, where the word diet carries regulatory or cultural difficulty. It is the same product under a different name. In several countries the word diet may only be used on products meeting a legal definition, which is why the alternative name exists at all.
