Seriously, any kind of lemon-lime soda that is diet, and is in an aluminum can, is probably the most toxic thing you could legally buy as food anywhere.

I don’t need to ban them but I would like people to know the truth about what they are drinking.

Toxic Benzene in sodas:

Aspartame (in diet sodas) - neurotoxic carcinogen

Aluminum toxicity and Alzheimer’s, etc:

These effects are all cumulative when you drink a diet lemon-lime soda in an aluminum can.

Thanks for the information.
This is the way to combat unhealthy products ... arm people with info, not drag them down with laws.

IIRC, after watching shows on how aluminum can are amde, the aluminum is sealed before filling. The drink doesn't come in contact with aluminum.
