melanie_marie27 Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 Hey guys, how many sodas (or pops) as we call it do you drink per day? I always have 1 Diet Coke, preferably from McDonald's. But I dilute it with 1/2 caffeine-free Diet Coke so I don't get too wired. Which is your fave? And how many per day? 🥤 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 I drink two 2 liter bottles of diet Pepsi every day. melanie_marie27 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melanie_marie27 Posted September 28, 2022 Author Share Posted September 28, 2022 So... you like the Pepsi huh? I can't seem to acquire a taste for Pepsi, even diet. It's the one thing about Taco Bell I don't like, they have no Coca-Cola products.. at least around here they don't. But yeah still I prefer diet anything vs regular Coke or even Pepsi. The non-diet just seems so "heavy".. I drink diet purely for the taste.. so much lighter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 I can't stand Coke anything. It's like drinking raw sewage. It literally makes me sick. As for preferring diet, it wasn't always the case for me. A few years ago, my doctor told me that I was in the pre-diabetes stage. Diabetes is one thing I've been terrified of getting all my life. So when I was told that, I cut out as much sugar as I could. I quit eating candy, quit eating cobbler (which was harder than hell to do), and switched from regular to diet soda. I never liked diet because it always had a weird after taste to me. But now that I've been drinking diet for several years, I actually can't stand the taste of regular cola. It's diet or nothing for me, regardless of what the soda is. Dr Pepper, Mtn Dew, Pepsi, etc. One that I wish I could still get around here is diet Faygo. Faygo is awesome soda, and so much cheaper for so much more. melanie_marie27 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melanie_marie27 Posted October 4, 2022 Author Share Posted October 4, 2022 I know what you mean. When I was little, I always drank regular soda pop, never diet. Then in high school, me and the gals all started drinking diet.. and yes, the aftertaste goes away once you're used to it. Wouldn't touch regular now. It's good you cut out regular pop.. you were smart. SO MUCH sugar.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 If not that I saw tbe picture, I wouldn't have known what you're talking about, because it isn't popular here in my geography. I take something that resembles it once in a while, maybe thrice in a month when I visit the eatery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyng Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Usually none. I only have them when I'm eating out, which I usually only do once every couple of weeks (unless I'm staying away from home!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the taste of the aluminum. I don't touch soda in a can now. It has to either be in plastic or glass. It's the same with my beer. I only drink from glass.

Man, I strongly prefer soda from a can, to me it tastes better than both from plastic and from glass. I've never gotten the taste of aluminum from a can. I don't drink soda every day, but when I do, 9 times out of 10 it's Pepsi Max. I guess that's more or less what you would call Diet Pepsi in other countries. In my country, Pepsi Max is the most sold soda by a pretty large margin.

The Blackangel Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 I've drank Pepsi products my entire life. We have Pepsi Max here as well, but it's a different soda than Diet Pepsi. What I really can't stand is the raw sewage that's in those red cans/bottles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 Honestly, I'm not much of a soda person but if I do drink soda, it's usually something like Sprite or Tropicana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravenfreak Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 I drink at least two a day, never diet soda since I don't care for the taste. My favorite is Mountain Dew since there's so many flavors I can choose from, with my favorite being Typhoon. It's a shame it's no longer available though. As for the current flavors Voltage is my favorite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
