Ah, you mean carbonated soft drinks.
I heard that they were very unhealthy, so I don't drink those. Mineral water all the way.

I do like pellegrino.

Mineral water is a huge ripoff. But I guess it's true that there's a sucker born every minute.

The confusion was because we call it "Coke" here, or in my family we call it "soft drink." I'm a fan of Dr. Pepper, I love that kick. BTW, diet drinks will kill you with cancer. They're actually less healthy for you than regular soft drinks, because they use artificial sweetners and crazy chemicals and shit.

Um, what are you basing that on? Everything I've seen against the most used artificial sweeteners have been pseudoscience.

It's hard to prove direct causality of X resulting in cancer. It's been shown that there is a possible link. http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/facts...sweeteners Have you seen Thank You For Smoking? Even though we all know smoking causes cancer, it hasn't technically been proven scientifically, and the main character exploits that. Cell phone companies do the same thing, and the fast food industry, with fast food -> obesity.

Did you even read what you sent me? I mean if that's the amount of evidence it takes for you to rule out consuming something, then you're going to have a hard time eating anything.

Although I try to avoid soda nowadays, my favorites were always Mountain Dew and Pepsi.
