I am addicted to Pepsi.

Even though it’s logo now looks like some sort of Obama symbol.

Please help me!

You'd be surprised how many good off-brand soda there are. The Wal-Mart stuff is the worst, but I recall Stop and Shop's private label as being pretty decent. If you haven't tried RC, you should (though I do think that Coke and Pepsi both taste better. Nothing goes with hot-sauce laden chicken like RC.) I wanted to like Jolt, I really did, but it just doesn't taste very good.

You can also try boutique or local brands. In New Haven, CT, for instance, Foxon Park is the soda of choice. Actually, if you want to cut down on funding the bad guys, buy local mom 'n pop stuff (except for that stuff made by blow hard bad guys of the "Annies" variety.)

Years ago, so was I - remember it all to well. I just stopped buying it - started drinking ginger ale until no need for soda any longer. Don’t think about missing it but gaining something. The ‘O’ symbol comes from his friend who is in high places at Pepsi.

Cold turkey, man. After two weeks, you won't even remember what you were missing.

I feel for you, I even kept a 12 pack of cans in my car so if I went someplace and they didn't have Pepsi, I brought my own...Cannot stand anything diet as it gives me an aftertaste, one son and wife drink Coke...yuk, the daughter and her hubby drink Diet Pepsi, yuk..

You have to find a substitute and wean your self off, its the only way :O( I found I like flavored Snapple tea's. Also just flavored snapple water. I am down to 2 cans of Pepsi a day and heading for one a day...

OMG when I had to take cans back to the store, I'd be there for 1/2 hours dumping cans in the machine...(We are a pathetic bunch aren't we)

Brewed ice tea is also a good substitute, but you my poor fella/or gal have to find your own substitute......good luck.
