I fucking knew it

I keep telling my friend that drinking Coke Zero isn't good for him at all.

I honestly feel the only soda people should drink is soda made with real sugar. Soda isn't something you drink every day. It's a treat. This artificial crap that people keep putting in their bodies is sickening. Not only are they feeding it to themselves... but then they're giving it to their kids... and wonder why kids have ADD and ADHD. It's fucking McDonald's and high fructose corn syrup and splenda.

well, still....the good thing about coke zero and diet mtn dew, and other diet drinks is that they dont contain high fructose corn syrup. I find that when i drink a diet mtn dew, i dont crash in 1 hour like i do with regular mtn dew.
same for diet energy drinks. you dont crash as hard. it has to do with the insulin levels in your blood.


and fuck studies conducted on rats. ive heard LOTS of tesimonies from people who switched to diet mtn dew and lost like 30-50 pounds. But these are from people who drank regular pop a LOT. So, the switch really changed the amount of calories they took in.

seriously I remember when I was little my friends drank like 5 cans a day. I have always preferred juice to pop

but I must say having a coke with some carryout pizza every month or so hits the spot

I thought pop was a more northern thing? I've always referred to it as pop and im from chicago.
when I went to georgia a few years ago I asked for a pop and the person automatically asked where I was from :lol:

Nope, just you silly midwesterners. I've found Buffalo to be about the middle ground between soda and pop.

I was born and raised in Chicago but I've been going to school in Wisconsin for the last 6 years.  I always called it pop growing up, but I get funny looks if I say pop here.

Soda sounds so fucking *lame*.

Yeah my parents never kept pop in the house. we only had it every once in a great while. I think they were still using real sugar too when I was a kid. I distinctly remember when I went into Jr High pop suddenly started to taste like chemicals and I didn't drink it as much.

I go to Trader Joe's and get this "Boylan's Ginger Ale." It's made with real cane sugar and it is so much better than regular ginger ale as to be unbelievable.

It makes me wonder what we're missing w/ all this High Fructose Corn Syrup nonsense...

Boylans is great we sold that at the grocery store I worked at. Does Jones Soda have real sugar or HFCS?

Jones Soda is full of the syrup.

Jones is overly sweet for my tastes.

If I ever drink pop I drink Coke. The occasional Mr. Pibb if I can find it.

It uses inverted cane sugar, so they can put cane sugar on the label, but it's basically the same thing, if not completely the same thing.

I looked that up a coupla weeks ago after going to Shi-Sha (hookah bar in Columbus for you non-C-Bus residents) and getting a Jones.
