Yuck. I drink about one Coke Zero a month. If that. More often -- like once a week -- I'll have diet 7Up or diet ginger ale.

Our former roommate's son drank a 12-pack of Coke a day. His teeth were disgusting. His front teeth were very short and brown. I think he had literally corroded his teeth away.

I used to drink a lot of diet cola when I was in college. I switched to club soda/water back in my 20's.

I still have a diet drink every now and then. Maybe once a month, if that.

The monetary cost is the least of the potential problems. Aspartame is poison.

I rarely drink carbonated drinks (apart from Sparkling water) but if I ever order a Coke I order diet not because of the calories but because Coke tastes much too sweet for me.

I can't stand them. I rarely drink any kind of soda. Typically, I'm a water or tea girl. Usually the only time I do have a soda is if I'm getting some kind of fast food burger, which is really rare and if I'm splurging and having a burger, just give me a real soda.

I knew 2 woman... one drank pepsi & one drank coke constantly all day. Both of them.
Neither smoked or was around cigarettes or cigars. Neither had cancer in their family backgrounds.
Both woman died young & both of cancer. 38 years old & 40 years old.
This was back in 1980's.
I'm just saying...too much of anything is bad for you, especially soda.


I never drank soda even growing up with all kinds of soda in our basement fridge for company.
I can't stand carbonation.

Give me well water and I'm a happy camper.

Exactly.
Drinking a diet beverage of any kind is just a death wish.
