For me, I cant even stand the cloying sweetness of soda. I only drink soda with shots or when Im in the mood for sugar and even then I can usually never finish a whole can.
Maaaaaan, people have no fucking idea how bad one can of coke or pepsi is, it has almost as much carbs as a fucking loaf of bread!!! One can, not to mention all the sugar and other junk.
I used to drink a shitload of soda. Even though it was diet soda, still bad for you. So lately I've stopped drinking soda. I drink a lot of water now.
Uhhh it definitely doesn't have anywhere near as many carbs as a loaf of bread haha. Bread has 12+ carbs per slice. A can of soda has around 40. Still, shit is awful for you, and nobody should be drinking it. I drink water and tea. That's it.
That's the problem--everyone's taste buds are fucked up. Or, maybe just the perception of taste? I dunno... but the point is, unless you cut out ALL overly sugary foods/drinks, you'll probably never realize how disgusting soda (as well as most juices) really is. I used to drink a chai tea from work every day. Then I changed my diet and stopped drinking it. Two months later, I decided to try it. I took two sips and dumped it, that's how bad it tasted.
I lost my ability to stomach that shit after loading bags of syrup into the soda fountain back when I worked food service. Gross as fuck.
I drank some all natural "Jones sugar free soda" today. It was alright.. not sure why I got it. I was at the store staring at the fridge for like 30 minutes and couldn't decide and I probably looks obviously high so I just grabbed something But it wasn't that bad. I don't drink soda AT ALL, but it literally had 0g of sugar/carb/etc. Except for like 80mg of sodium
drink water and that's about it, although I do cave and have a Dr. Pepper every few weeks...it burns but it just tastes so good lolol
I couldn't imagine a sugar free jones. Those things are sweet as fuck. Used to get the green apple flavor.
If Dr Pepper is outlawed then only outlaws will have Dr Pepper. I will be a wanted man. Love it, can't live without it. Everyone has a vice, mine is, well you already know that answer.
After not drinking pop for almost two years I tasted some a few weeks ago(ran out of bottled water at a family reunion) It was ridiculously sweet and burned my throat. I didn't even get through half the can. Fuck pop. Feels like drinking acid. Water is delicious and so is juice.
eh an occasional soda every now and then is fine, just dont over do it like most things in life... too many people take things to abundance. "instead of taking ownership for my decision, i will blame my unhappiness on someone/something else... it isnt my fault"
One time I was at a friend's house with a couple other people and said friend asks everybody if they want something to drink. Some dude I didn't know goes "yeah, I'll have a soda" and my friend goes "I don't drink soda. I've got water and orange juice" so most people choose water. I go in the kitchen to help him out and pulls a gallon size jug of Sunny D out of his fridge I said "you don't drink soda...but you drink Sunny D?" He honestly thought that shit was "juice."
