WTH? Where is the carbonation guilt in this whole mess? When will the ecowankers address that huh? While they're kicked back suckin' down some beers? Worryin' about strokes in people when the entire erf is in danger from pollutants like See-uh-O2? Oh, the YUGE manatee..............

So it’s OK to drink “baby squeezin’s” and not feel guilty about it now?

Artificially sweetened beverages may be linked to an increased risk of stroke and dementia.

Rather than use artificial sweeteners, why don't they go back to using cane sugar. That is an authentic sweetener.

I feel no guilt when I crack open an ice cold Mountain Dew. My wife suffers enough “that’s not healthy” guilt for both of us.

My guilt-free Pepsi is the Pepsi Throwback, made with cane sugar. Tastes lighter and crisper than the fructose-syrup goo we get sold as soda these days - just like it used to taste when I was a kid (and yeah, I tried a blind test, just out of curiosity - I could tell the difference and so could my wife).

Pepsi is getting some really bad marketing advice these days.

I don’t like soda, and I’m glad I never acquired a taste for it. I am thoroughly convinced that Big Food IS trying to kill us.

OTOH, I fully support the choices of others when it comes to what they choose to eat. :)

When die-t soda came out I had one sip and knew it was poison. ...they should have added cancer to list.

Bottled water is a racket. I just re-use the bottle and fill it from the water fountain.
