These guys are idiots.... people who drink diet colas are likely to be prone to obesity to begin with.

Its not the red meat. It is the bread the sauce the potatoes the gravy etc etc.... that stuff really adds the weight.
It's not the red meat, it's the bread that goes with it. Carbohydrates. People who drink diet drinks are usually trying to lose weight and generally are more likely to be eating carbs. . . and trading off the diet drink for more french fries.
There is no guarantee of correlation and causality in this study.
