Soda pop finally getting the recognition it deserves

[daveshel]

Not much of a stretch.

 

[kush23]

[daveshel]

I never could stand the stuff. Makes the inside of my mouth all sticky and gross.

 

[Kadarin]

Makes sense.

Fixed. They can have my soda when they pry it from my cold, dead, obese, diabetic hands.

That article is nearly spot on. I say nearly because "Diet" soda, or "Diet" anything in most cases is just as bad, or worse for you.

 

[ric1287]

wait wait, so the 300-400 calorie, 20000gram sugar filled drink is BAD for me? Jesus!!!!

 

[jagec]

I barely drink it. Root beer occasionally, maybe a coke once on a blue moon. It just isn't that great. Fruit juice tastes much better.

What's sad is how much of the stuff kids drink.

I stopped drinking it this year. My boss on the other hand, can't go a day without several Diet Cokes or Coke Zeros (Zeroes?).

When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

Seriousry, soda pop may be a good way for bad parents to pacify children but if you're still drinking it as an adult when potable water is available then you deserve to be a fat bastard.

It's really quite disgusting to see family dinner tables with a giganto 2L bottle or two of coloured sugar-water. Blech.

Why drink potable water when you can drink beer?

Because it tastes like ass?

Not everyone likes beer, or even alcohol for that matter. It's not exactly good for you, either.

Actually, drinking alcohol (in moderation) does have its health benefits.

[Cabages]

I drink a fair amount. Good to know if I ever start getting overweight.

Drinking soda has its health benefits, too. It makes you happy.

Moderation being 1 glass of red wine a night, with dinner?

Don't get me wrong, I have a Mike's hard Lemonade with Cranberry once in a while. They're delicious.

I'm just saying... Alcoholic beverages are far inferior health-wise to juice or water.

 

[us3rnotfound]

I don't know what that article is talking about, I drink a mountain dew and I'm not hungry for a longass time. They're saying soda induces hunger?

 

[RossMAN]

We usually drink water with the occasional Crystal Light Peach Tea

...at your peril.

Red wine has health benefits but I am not aware of any other alcohol having likewise. On a side note, so does dark chocolate as opposed to candy bars.

Fruit juice is almost as bad per ounce, it's heavy on the sugars.

The first thing I learned when I started watching my diet was: don't drink your calories. Never realized how many calories I'd been consuming in the form of soda.
