This is an easy one to solve... Don't buy/drink soda. Boom. Fixed.
Soda makes life worth living. No carbonation, forget it!!!
It seems that everything that people enjoy is somehow, magically, mysteriously BAD for you. OMG, the boogie man of "bad for you". I think control freaks are at the root of all this BS
Little noted that soda was first touted as a healthful alternative to alcoholic drinks in the late 19th/early 20th centuries. That is why, in old movies, we so often see 'soda fountains' located in pharmacies. It was purported to be a health elixir.
Also little noted that soda used to be made with cane sugar, but was replace with high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) due to price controls on sugar imposed by the US Congress, at the behest of the sugar industry.
Writer Tim Carney in his book The Big Ripoff notes that the one time President Clinton sent Monica out of the room was when taking a call from one of the Fanjul brothers (FL sugar moguls). Clinton would take calls from congress critters and world leaders while Monica remained in the room, doing her thing.
Some mechanics use COKE to clean corroded batteries....just sayin'...
Pour a small amount of Coca Cola over any corroded areas slowly. Add more Coke later if you need to increase the corrosion power. Wait for the Coke to bubble and eat away at the rust and corrosion. ... Pour some Coke over the battery connectors themselves if there is any corrosion present on them.
It’s cheaper than water which is amazing since that is the #1 ingredient. Crazy how cheap crap food, fast food, snacks are compared to actual food. I can buy an entire meal from McDonalds for the price of 2-3 bell peppers.
A one pound bag of dry lentils costs about $1 and five pounds of whole grain (brown) rice costs less than $5, so for less than $6 you can feed yourself efficiently (high nutrients, low calorie, low cost) for at least a week. There are many other examples.
This myth that actual food is more expensive than junk food is actually part of the junk food conspiracy.
Whole foods are BY FAR much cheaper than junk (processed) food, both short term and long term, and not just in terms of purchase price.
The smell of french fries makes me nauseous and I'm quite tired of catching a wiff of that stench almost everywhere I go. I don’t think it's fair that I should be exposed to it. Something needs to be done. And I'm quite sure that the fumes are causing damage to my body.

IF what you eating is low calorie, you aren't really feeding yourself, you are just practicing digestion. Overwhelmingly, the reason we eat is to gain energy, i.e. Calories. EVERYTHING else is just a trifle. We eat for Calories. Without them, we flicker and die.
Quit spreading lies.
