I've done my bouts of not-drinking soda for a month or two. And recently I started one up, it hasn't even been a month, but I just drank some soda yesterday and today. It didn't taste as good as it use to, and it makes my stomach a little upset.

Is soda an acquired taste?

I like it, but I get that taste when you eat something too sweet, and I hate that. So I only drink once or twice a week

yes. I'd say I could do at least 2000 cals a day with soda.

I try and do diet coke now....but some weeks I just drink normal pepsi or something of the sort.

Lets see:
-Regular Soda is bad (high fructose corn syrup)
-Diet soda "could" cause cancer/bad for you

:)
And I love soda and too probably drink too much of it and I'm cutting back too as I exercise more (play tennis).

I love soda. I am a big Diet Coke/Pepsi fan, but everything else I like regular.

Main reason I stopped drinking it is too cut down on empty calories, it cost more than water/milk/juice, and it's not nutritional.

No, I hate everything about soda:
-the way it tastes
-the fact that it's way too sweet
-how it fizzes in your mouth and makes it hard to swallow quickly
-the total lack of nutrients in it
-the way it coats your teeth with crap
-how my mouth feels all weird after drinking it
-the fact that after the CO2 goes away, it tastes exactly like water loaded with sugar

I prefer some cold water, yum

I love Mountain Dew and RC Cola, but I quit drinking pop due to diet pop tasting horrible and real pop having too many calories.

Oh God do I love soda. I've been off it for almost 12 weeks, though. The addiction was just too much for me to handle.

I like soda, but I don't drink it that often. It would be much better if they used cane sugar in it too instead of that high fructose corn syrup crap.

meh.. i used to drink it, but ive probably had less than a dozen in the last 5 years. Every once in a while ill have a coca cola classic, or a ginger ale. Definitly no fountain drinks though.

Its not that I dont like it, its that I dont feel the urge to go out of my way to drink it. Same with dessert foods like chocolate. I like them, but I never eat them unless they are given to me, or served at someones house where i would feel rude to turn it down.

Coke Classic, Ginger Ale, or Ginger Beer. No Petsi. Sometimes Club Soda w/ a lime twist.
