I think moderation is the key with Coke

I wonder sometimes which is worse for you, regular or diet?

Diet drinks are THE worst. Artificial sweeteners are bad for the brain cell.

vainandy said:

What about a Coke Zero? That's what I drink. All the great taste of a regular Coke with none of the calories.

I'll say it again, diet drinks are THE worst. Artificial sweeteners are bad for the brain cells.

Just imagine if you were around when Coke was first invented. I would have seen this new drink I had never seen before with all that fizz bubbling and would have been scared to drink it.

When Coke was first invented, its key ingredient was cocaine. Hence why they called it "Coke"!

I bet it still has cocaine in it. J/K to Coke lovers... but yeah that don't surprise me anymore. But I remembered when I first read about it like "what?! Are you kidding?!"

those artificial sugars leave a nasty aftertaste

I was just going to post that. Freud was addicted.

Thanks Gray...I learned about this a few years ago and haven't touched a soda since. There are so many other good things to drink. Why put your body through that? Not worth it to me.

FYI I drink Pepsi too. But I apologize for getting a cocaine-inspired drink mixed up with Pepsi.

Yeah but you can't tell the difference.

not all non-sugar sweeteneers are bad. Truvia/stevia/reb-a are naturally derived from a plant, and are far sweeter than cane sugar.

Put a tooth a child has lost into a petri dish filled with Coke and a small civilization will form.

Wait...that was a Simpsons episode.

LOL...

I love that episode...

But yeah, Coke is bad for you..

The only Coke I drink and tolerate is Vanilla Coke. Damn the shit is good.

Oh yes. Pepsi tastes like a Coke with too much sugar that's gone flat.

I have never in my 42 years of life drunk a Coke.............

Does that make me wierd?

Nope.

Drink a Pepsi and you won't need to drink a coke for the rest of your life.

Back in 1928, caffeine was shown to have no significant impact on urinary output. Subsequent studies have shown that caffeine-containing beverages did not impact urinary output any differently than other beverages. Based on this, the Institute of Medicine recommends that "unless additional evidence becomes available indicating cumulative total water deficits in individuals with habitual intakes of significant amounts of caffeine, caffeinated beverages appear to contribute to the daily total water intake similar to that contributed by noncaffeinated beverages."

This doesn't mean that caffeine does not increase your need to urinate. Your reaction can depend on the amount that you consume, the type of product, and your tolerance level. If you have urinary incontinence, you may experience a greater "urgency" to urinate after consuming a caffeinated beverage. You will need to monitor your reaction and tolerance to caffeine to determine how you are affected. Water is still the recommended choice for optimal hydration, so be sure to include it as part of your daily fluid consumption.

That's all I'm going to say about this. There's a few other things wrong with that first post as well, but I can't be bothered to get into that right now.

I never understood those blind taste testing commercials that used to run in the late 90s.

There is a substantial difference between the taste of Pepsi and Coke. I guess it just varies from person to person, but I have always been able to tell them apart.

Coke is superior imo.

Although canned Coke tastes weird to me.

Sprite is always good.

The original Sprite Remix is MY JOINT.

I came up with the catchphrase "Remix my soul", back when it first came out.

"I'm going to the store, do you want anything to drink?"

"Remix my soul"

"YEAH, LETS GO"

I would like to become an official taste tester for sodas. I have no idea how to get into that field and it probably isn't worth it but I think it would be awesome.

U DIG

"I've done commercials for Coke AND Pepsi, I don't give a fuck what comes out of my mouth. That's what I'm saying whatever it takes. Whatever it takes, that's what I'm saying. Wanna know the truth? Can't even taste the difference. SURPRISE! All I know is Pepsi paid me most recently so... taste better." -- Dave Chappelle

if you put enough rum in it, you will be fine!

That's not a valid argument! That goes for just about any liquid
