a chuckle. Clever marketing. Like smaller can, too.

1. Don't drink that shit. Coke has been up to some nasty business in
South America, and elsewhere, and their noxiously intrusive advertizing invades every sector of life and needs to be stopped.


Sure, I'm drinking a Diet Coke right now, but I'm an addict. Do as I say, not as I do, dammit! (Yes, I thought it was cool marketing too...)

2. Please don't drink diet anything
The chemicals in diet soda turn into wood alcohol when digested and poisons the body. Some have claimed that it eats little holes in the brain and tributes to Alzhimers disease. I have no link currently, but just google the artificial sweetener listed on the can and read about this horrible poison that has been unleashed on us.

3. Namely
hiring Columbian death squads to break up the unions with bullets in Columbine plants.

That is fucking disgusting.

6. The good news is that Coca-Cola does not own 7-up
The bad news is the Carlyle Group does :evilfrown:

For the record, dn-L didn't do much for me, but it's sure better than the "Sprite Tropical Remix" and the godawful mint flavored "Sprite Ice" they have in Canada. And I wouldn't even try the Blue Pepsi :puke:

4. Yes
I believe that it is majorly caffeinated. I drank a lot of it and had the jitters just before my husabnd told me that.

5. It tastes GREAT. It's like melon.
Don't listen to the other negative nellies. It tastes the BEST.

I limit myself to one bottle per week tho, because of the high sugar content.
