Without a doubt
as early as the 60s i recall talking with Kiwi mates, and we were saying at the time, pity the Americans, and all there superfluous goods, incl foods and beverages, coca cola, was an item we rubbished as to how madly passionate some of you were, on it

Obesity, in ALL Countries does not surprise, with the amount of artificial junk and shit consumed by us all, not saying NZ has been exempt from this influence
China in Maos time, the poor drank boiled water, maybe a leaf or two thrown in, if they could find one..good or not ..
Healthy people, apparently not, naah i dont think so, some reports are theyre also dying off in mysterious ways ... even worse now they have embraced our western ways / McDs

I dont like soda...its not a self righteous thing...it just never appealed to me. When I am thirsty, it makes me thirstier. On a side note...I bought some alumina filters to get the fluoride out of my tap water and it makes a HUGE difference.

I enjoy an ice cold coca-cola about six times a year so I'm not going to worry about. That Mountain Dew thing was kind of scary though.

*giggles* Dr. Nudie is contractually obligated to say that
:tongue1::wink:

eta: i've been off the Dr. Pepper for a few months now. is strictly water and tea for me.

Yeah. I don't drink pop very often. If I do, it's a luxury, or when I'm out. Too much bad stuff.

Another reason to give it up is the fact that the darker, caramel colored varieties can be extremely caustic. If you pour some on a rusty piece of metal, it can actually strip the rust away....Scary thought. What's it doing to your insides?

A very common trick use in the coin op / amusement trade, for cleaning old tokens.

Also in the US, police officers often carry the post mix syrup in their cars, as an effective way of cleaning blood and body fluids from a verity of surfaces.

I can remember my parents pouring a bottle of coca-cola over frozen windsheild glass to melt the ice... I found it odd, then, that you could use a cold drink to melt something. Funy thing, it worked like a charm and didn't re-freeze the windows...

True story:

I was 17, and had my tonsils out. Obviously, over the two weeks of recovery, they didn't want me having anything acidic, etc.

At the time, I was big into Coke. After not having it for so long, I tried a can of it. First sip was like "Eww!" This shit tastes moldy! Is that how it always tasted? ACK!

Nowadays, if I'm gonna drink pop, I'll drink something like Dr. Pepper, or Ginger Ale.

You do know that Dr Pepper is cherry coke.

I haven't had coke for 30 years and any sort of soda for almost 10. It is water for me.


For a fun aside the first time I went to type coke, I typed cock....Freud anyone.

dr. pepper IS NOT cherry coke.
Not even close.
go directly to jail. Do not pass go. do not collect $200.

This.

If you think Pepper is Cherry Coke, your taste buds are severely damaged.

*Considers buzzing out to Walgreens to buy a 12 of Pepper. *

*Realizes it's Midnight*

*Ahh hell, Fuck it. I'll do it tomorrow.*
