Go diet. Once you get used to it they taste better anyway

  • Whether I work:
    -At work I'll drink like two 1-liter bottles of pop.
  • Whether or not I'm at home:
    -I have a bunch of pop at my place, but my friends don't really have any.
  • Whether or not I'm drinking something else:
    -i.e. beer or liquor.

Posts: 551/577		 Soda is something I really don't drink. 0-1. Basically, I drink stuff like juice and water ... I commonly drink water, however.

Posts: 496/633		 I answered 2-4, but sometimes I'll drink more than that if I'm in the mood for them. I drink diet pop because it has no calories and I like the taste. Seriously...the last time I took a sip of regular pop, it seemed syrupy and gross. And before I got used to diet, I used to hate it.

Even that is terrible for me, but, well... I need the god damn caffiene. I am definately considering switching to diet, to try and cut down on the sugars... But doesn't diet have more salt or something? I don't fucking know.

I just need the caffiene. NEED it. I am a fucking junkie; I cannot function like a normal human being without it.
Diet pop is basically inert. It is caffeinated and carbonated, but obviously neither sound like a problem for you. And as long as you don't have PKU (a rare genetic disorder that you would have known about since you were little) or some random sensitivity to an artificial sweetener (like noticing that a certain sweetener triggers migraines), the sweeteners in diet pop shouldn't give you any trouble, either. As far as sodium goes, the can of Diet Black Cherry Vanilla Coke I have in front of me says that it contains 45mg of sodium, which is 2% of the RDA. I have no idea how that compares to regular pop.

I just need a little fizz in my mouth every now and then.

Coca-Cola Company is perhaps the most widely recognized corporate symbol on the planet. The company also leads in the abuse of workers’ rights, assassinations, water privatization, and worker discrimination. Between 1989 and 2002, eight union leaders from Coca-Cola bottling plants in Colombia were killed after protesting the company’s labor practices. Hundreds of other Coca-Cola workers who have joined or considered joining the Colombian union SINALTRAINAL have been kidnapped, tortured, and detained by paramilitaries who are hired to intimidate workers to prevent them from unionizing.

In India, Coca-Cola destroys local agriculture by privatizing the country’s water resources. In Plachimada, Kerala, Coca-Cola extracted 1.5 million liters of deep well water, which they bottled and sold under the names Dasani and BonAqua. The groundwater was severely depleted, affecting thousands of communities with water shortages and destroying agricultural activity. As a result, the remaining water became contaminated with high chloride and bacteria levels, leading to scabs, eye problems, and stomach aches in the local population.

Coca-Cola is also one of the most discriminatory employers in the world. In the year 2000, 2,000 African-American employees in the U.S. sued the company for race-based disparities in pay and promotions.

Posts: 204/427		 What do you measure that in? You know, there's a large difference between a 0.33 litre can and an 1.5 litre bottle. (I drink 1-2 of the latter a day on average, but my record stands at five)

Posts: 138/321		 I only drink soda on special occasions. On normal days I just drink water.

So my vote goes to 0.

Posts: 2529/5072		 I have a 710ML bottle of Pepsi maybe once every 3 days. I used to drink 2 a day but that just totally screwed up my sleep pattern, digestive system, memory etc... excessive caffiene is a very bad thing.

Posts: 1435/2046		 Colin, Fanta? Eesh. Around here, that stuff tastes way too salty for my taste. Good luck finding something worth drinking.

I picked 5-6 because I have this thing where I"ll go a day and not drink any soda, then the next day I'll drink a case plus a pair of 20 ounce bottles.

Bye, sperm count.

Posts: 5084/6737		 I used to drink 3 or 4 a day, but I recently decided to quit drinking soda, so my vote is 0.

Posts: 396/894		 I almost never drink more than one can of soda per day (that is, when I actually drink soda). My parents don't buy it very often either; usually I drink iced tea or lemonade.

My vote went to 0-1 cans.

Posts: 186/310		 Normally, I drink like 2 cans of soda. But, the hot weather is making me drink more than 2 cans of soda.

It's not always Coke and Pepsi that I drink, but I also drink Fresca, Sprite and any other flavored soda. I like some variety.

Taryn: I'd get a new bottle of soda if it sits there too long.


Why.... is it possible for that stuff to go off? It's just sugarwater and artificial flavouring. If I don't open it it shouldn't go flat anytime soon.

I bought some lemonade today to try to drink something with some sugar in it while I'm not feeling great. Little bit of energy while I'm feeling horrible.

Posts: 1407/1823		 Eh, I drink a few about every month. Not nearly enough a day to be considered more than one.

I stick to drinking milk, orange juice, and lemonade.

Posts: 1410/2713		 No soda, but I frequently have a coffee.

I very, very seldom drink soda at all. I have some, it's been here for months, but I haven't drunk any of it. It will come in handy if I want a scotch and coke though.

The last time I had a soda, it was a few weeks ago, and I had a Lemon Lime and Bitters (not a premix, one actually made by a bartender). Prior to that, my previous soda would have been months and months....
