not looking down on your diet coke at all, but from the riot act i got, theres plenty other stuff besides the sugar that makes these drinks poison.

I'm taking the 1-2 a week as a treat approach.

diet tastes aweful to me anyway, apparantly the artificial sweateners taste very different to different people. it's why as well as diet coke / pepsi theres zero and max
