i second that!!! water is good for you. haven't really drunk soda since i was 10 years old, expect for a slight soda binge during high school and first year or so of college. i forgot the last time i had soda...it's been months, even though my family drinks the stuff, especially my brother.
i also hate that in most college parties, they don't even have water to drink, it's just soda...and it's full of high fructose corn syrup, which is much worse than regular soda. we're telling america's youth that soda is okay? no way.
water is a horrible chaser except for the most astute and well practiced of students
Prior to the development of Coca-Cola, there were toothbrushes and dentifrice/toothpaste. Pepsi was originally supposed to calm your stomach, not hurt it.
I voted coke, but admitted to prefer Pepsi Max over Coke's sugar free alternatives... now, after the introduction of Coke Zero, even that has changed. Despite the insanely lame TV ad for it, and other shady marketing ploys, I much prefer Coke Zero over any other sugar free colas...

diet soda i think is worse...
they usually put sugar substitutes, which are usually worse than the actual sugars in diet sodas, so i avoid those as well, more than the regular stuff.
this goes for alot of the light versions of sweet snacks as well.

Exactly, I try to avoid artificial and modified sugar. I also find this ironic: Those who drink diet soda think they will lose weight which in fact the won't. If you understand how caffeine works (diuretic), you'll know that it inhibits the absorption of water which causes you to urinate more. Loss of water means cells can't function. If cells can't function, you can't lose weight!
H20 Baby!
I should have said that the gas makes my stomach hurt and not Pepsi. But regardless if toothbrushes, etc were made prior to Coke, its acidic enough to destroy enamel which will then cause stains. No wonder why they use Coke to clean up blood on highway/roads cause its so acidic. Try placing a piece of steak in a pool of Coke, it'll be gone in the morning.
Agree with you there. First had some down in Brazil, but haven't had any for awhile now.
BTW - I love revived threads. How do you people find and drag these up, anyway?
It's up to you to brush your teeth. Any number of things make stains on your teeth, including probably, plain air.
I know how caustic Coca-Cola is. I used to clean my car battery terminals with it.
too be honest i drink by price, either is fine, personally i tend to drink juice more then soda these days.
My thoughts exactly, and I doubt that it is going to stain unless you drink mass quantities and never brush your teeth (gag).

OMG when I first went to Vegas, I went to a coke factory (the soda one) and they had something like that there! I had so much soda that day. As soon as we made our way back to the hotel (we walk everywhere), all the soda combined into a giant ball of foam which proceeded to leave my stomach and out onto the sidewalk (of course, everyone was watching
).Me + Heat + soda = special vacation memories for other people except me
I live on diet soda, the real stuff is too sweet.
Eeewww!!! That's so wrong.
I like Coke cola but I would love a Mountain Dew. They don't sell it in England.

hah! that's a different thread entirely.
the only time i drink dark soda is when i have rum...which isn't all that often anymore. when i do have rum, it's coke all the way.
my husband fell in love with me 6 years ago at college, when i'd come to the dorm lobby to get myself a barq's red creme soda (the best soda on earth!)...he knew i got one every afternoon, so he'd wait in the lobby to talk to me.
so soda can be a good thing...it can bring people together.
