1. Nothing artificial tastes like sugar, so get over it.
2. The low calorie option is the primary selling point.
3. While some brands tastes like crap, there are others that make up for it.
Now this is the kicker. I don't think I want to randomly pick up multiple brands of diet soda every time I'm at the supermarket until I pick a winner. If you have any advice for a novice diet soda head, I'd love to hear it.

Ten years ago, I swore I would never grow accustomed to liking diet sodas over their high fructose counterparts. I'm not sure what sucked me into this vortex. I guess our palates can change drastically in a short time. I can already see there are some aspects of drinking diet soda that require a bit of getting used toQuote from: "shin"

Sorry, I can't help ya Shin, I am not a pop drinker. I like fruit juices which are just as bad in the sugar department as Coke though.

Yeah my advice is.....don't drink any of that stuff. Artificial sweeteners are linked to all sorts of aliments from headaches to an increased risk of contacting type 2 diabetes. SQuote from: "Renee"tudies also show that drinking diet soda does nothing to control weight gain and in fact, has the opposite effect in many cases. So why drink it?

Hmmm,You make a very good point.
If it weren't for the carbonation, I would probably give up sodas for life. At this point in my life, I rarely have more than a can a day. I don't drink pop every day, but some external factors cause me to crave it. Anything from humid weather to complimenting fast food.

I understand what you are saying about the carbonation. Thats why I drink flavored seltzer....no sugar, no artificial sweetener, no sodium. I used to drink a lot of diet soda but I gave it up about 6 years ago. I used to get a lot of headaches as well but when I cut out aspartame and other artificial sweeteners the frequency of the headaches went down dramatically.

A long time ago.
I used to be a heavy smoker, but I quit over a year ago. I noticed that when you smoke, your tastebuds are essentially coated in filth and it gets all the more difficult to taste anything that doesn't have a strong flavor.
When I quit, I thought it would be easier on me to also quit coffee and tea. A few months later, I decided i was over the nicotine addiction, so it wouldn't kill me to drink coffee and tea again. You can imagine i was drinking a lot more when it was coupled with a constant urge to light up.
Long story short, I'm a lot more sensitive to caffeine now, so I drink them both a bit more sparingly. I think I could go without caffeine every other day, but some days I tend to want it during the AM hours. getting rid fo my coffee maker wasn't the brightest of ideas, but it was a means to an end in the long run.
I think I'll be drinking more tea this year.

Yeah, a noticeable bit.
While it does bother me how much easier it is to gain weight without smoking and drinking coffee everyday, I try to remind myself of the positive aspects... Especially the rising cost of cigarettes here. When I started, they were less than $3.50 a pack. When I quit, the were over $12 a pack!
I was a smoker on and off for 15 years, but the price of most cigarettes was going up rapidly, mainly due to the taxes added by our city. I made a joke when they doubled in price that I would stop cold turkey when they got to be $10, but by then I had already looked into other more affordable options. It started with rolling tobacco, and ended with cigarillos (they taste awful, but most brands can be purchased for under $3 a pack.)
I was given a disposable e-cig a couple of years ago. I initially thought it was as bad as it would get for alternatives, but I used it to get over the hill when I was feeling the worst cravings during my road to quitting, and I haven't relapsed so far. Smoke free since 6/1/14.

From what I remember, I liked tea a little too much. I wanted to drink a cup almost every hour. At any rate, I think the caffeine will force me to slow down now that I'm older.

I hear you brother. I started smoking when I was thirteen. I quit in my thirties, so do the math there. I did not care about the expense that much. I did not want to be the 50% of people who die because of their smoking habit. I did the Nicorette gum for almost a year to get me over my nicotine addiction.
If you have been off tobacco for one year now, you are off of it for life from what I have seen. It's so liberating being free of cancer sticks. You can't smoke anywhere here anyway. Being outside in Saskatchewan when it is minus twenty and you are three metres from an entrance just to inhale poison is the biggest incentive I can think of to quit.

The winter we had during the 2012-2013 season was also helpful in quitting. We had more than a dozen days with wind chill below -10 F, and we had what felt like 3 blizzards melt and fall over again. We had snow from November to early May.
Like many progressive places, people aren't allowed to smoke in 95% of public places even outside. It seems the only places you can smoke now are in alleys or if you own a home.

I've had green tea, but I recently learned that it's very likely I haven't ever had good quality green tea. Other than the stuff they sell at supermarkets, the only decent teas I can remember having were at Asian restaurants. The complimentary green tea they often give us here at sushi bars is diluted for sure.
Chicago has 2 Chinatowns, and I'm not very far from one of them. I keep making a point to go into this large market I see many people flock to, but I always forget since it's out of my way.

I have not smoked in a long time now, but I know it goes too far. Stores have to have hide smokes behind cases. I went to buy some cigars for a buddy's first grandchild and the clerk would not let me see what was behind the case. I had to know a brand and she would get it for me. I am forty eight years old and some clerk younger than my son is telling me I am too young and impressionable to look at the cigars for sale.

From what I remember, I liked tea a little too much. I wanted to drink a cup almost every hour. At any rate, I think the caffeine will force me to slow down now that I'm older.
I sip on green tea all day. There's not a lot of caffeine in it. It's loaded with anti-oxidants too.
I've had green tea, but I recently learned that it's very likely I haven't ever had good quality green tea. Other than the stuff they sell at supermarkets, the only decent teas I can remember having were at Asian restaurants. The complimentary green tea they often give us here at sushi bars is diluted for sure.
Chicago has 2 Chinatowns, and I'm not very far from one of them. I keep making a point to go into this large market I see many people flock to, but I always forget since it's out of my way.
It's a myth that people have to spend a lot of money to get quality green tea..
I buy boxes of loose leaf China green tea in my city's China town..
It's not the best quality, but it's good and cheap.

I'd agree it's more about the availability than the price. Better grades of tea would be more likely to be found where more tea drinkers shop. It's a similar reason why the larger supermarkets wouldn't be the best place to find hot peppers.

These long distance relationships sure are hard to maintain. Maybe we should get hitched so making a greater effort will have more meaning behind it...
On the plus side, this will also make it easier for us to spend more quality time together. Bathroom breaks might be a bit of a problem, though...

I think that if we compare coffee and tea side by side, the tea would be safer in increasing amounts.

Hi Mona
I've given the artificial sweeteners a free pass to the trash bin. As for soda, I do have some, but I've been drinking it maybe twice a week. I drink more coffee than anything else (besides water), and I try to mix in some fruit juice. I don't drink much milk, but I might change my tune soon.

Fruit juice isn't much better than soda, it is full of sugar, too. The best thing to detox with would be green tea with lemon or lime in it, if you don't like water.
Milk is very good for your bones, but if you're trying to lose weight, you won't want to drink a huge amount of full fat milk.

I have never seen a thin person drinking Diet Coke.Quote from: "The Donald"
I drank diet pepsi and non-diet coke as a teen, but I only had one can every so often. It was not my main source of fluid. I really don't like the bubbles.
My mother freaked out and thought I was on a diet, but I preferred the diet pepsi to the regular one for taste, and taste alone. But I haven't really had either regularly since my teens.
And at the time I was 53 - 55kg and 165cm, which is barely reaching the lower end of the normal weight range for my height.

My mother was concerned by mental state and that I was going to become anorexic because it was "diet".
I actually don't drink it, because I don't like the texture of fizzy drinks, or the taste. Not because of health concerns.

I'm willing to admit that most of Nirvana's fame was a result of the corporate marketing of the "grunge" scene, which tried to make being a loser fashionable. Also, when they play certain songs 20 times a day on the radio, we start to find them more tolerable.

My advice is that all the artificial sweeteners are toxic. And if you are drinking diet in order to not gain weight or keep your sugars down, then you shouldn't be drinking any kind of soda at all.Quote from: "Mona"
I have never been a fan of sodas, I drink milk, tea, coffee, water, but rarely do I venture to drink soft drink. What it does to your insides is appalling.
I recently heard a popular artificial sweetener labeled Splenda has been linked to leukemia and cancer, but the cancer find was a response to lab mice probably being fed too much of it.
I went to the supermarket to look into frozen concentrated juices, and much to my surprise there wasn't much to choose from that didn't list high fructose corn syrup as the main ingredient. I ended up buying a brand of lemonade that siad it was sweetened with sugar and a smaller amount of stevia extract. It's not bad, but I don't think I'll buy it again.

Everything that is popular and widely used is linked to cancer. They don't know what causes cancer and are constantly looking for things that multiple cancer patients have in common. The reality is that everyone has cancer cells in their body, and everyone's trigger to turn them carcinogenic is different, which is why nobody has been able to pinpoint exactly what causes cancer.
One week they tell you butter is bad for you, the next they say that you should eat only real butter and not margarines. They don't actually know what causes it, and it's likely that they don't want to know as the curing and treatment of cancer patients generates millions of dollars in revenue each year. As does war.

It's something about the inherent ways of the Western world where we're taught to believe every thing is supposed to have an easy aspect to it.
Also, on an unrelated parallel, movies have to have happy endings, or they're not good.

Sometimes I forget how close you guys are to Seattle. Most radio stations make an extra effort to play bands from nearby. I thought there was also a law that dictated Canadian radio stations had to play a certain amount of Canadian music.

My buddy has mortgages on those vac trucks. They have to keep earning. He cannot get anyone to do the port a potty sucking jobs. His brother and him do it themselves.
