Drinking coke always reminds me of an 'experiment' we did in 3rd grade. The teacher put a piece of meat in some coke, and I think it bubbled or sumpin, and she said THAT'S what it does to your stomach. Needless to say I've never been much of a Coca-cola fan. ;)

But I'm on the skinny side so I don't have to worry about it, yet.

Off for a coke/pepsi break.
