Don’t drink soda. Diet or sugared.

The best is Coca-Cola imported from Mexico.

One of the few great things to come over the border (and legally, to boot).

I used to walk across the bridge and eat lunch in Juarez.

I’d have two hamburgers and two 16oz cokes.

The Cokes were kept in a large metal tub full of ice... they were really cold and wonderful :-) (and were 30 cents each)

So they take a product that is growing in market share, cannibalizing Diet Coke (No one call tell me Zero isn’t better.) and they’re going to kill it and keep the inferior product losing market share.....

Okay then, stupid Coke does stupid again.

ALL soda is bad, especially “diet” with neurotoxins like Aspertame or sucralose. PLEASE stop, people.
