What Do You Love The Most?

That’s cool, but how come most everyone drinking diet soda is fat?

Deep State.

It’s because they love shit food so much that they’ll drink even fake sugar. They only want yummy things and don’t develop an appreciation for subtle flavor, variety, or bitterness, and thus no vegetables.

I’ve read the sweeteners cause cancer (what doesnt?!) and that your body treats the fake shit the same way it treats real sugar.
I didnt read either on hippiemoms,com, but who knows if its true or not. What I do know is that soda never really satisfied my thirst, it’s thick and gross, and I’ve used it shine up pennies and shit. Probably better off not drinking it.

The sweeteners=cancer thing is widely disputed and based on a fraudulent study that occurred like, 20 years ago. People still hold onto it, and it’s basically and urban myth at this point. I’m not saying drink 10 gallons a day of it - but one or two is not going to kill you.

Also lol most people I know drink diet, like I rarely see anyone have a normal soda unless they are an old dude. Maybe it’s a CA thing.

If you work it in to your daily caloric intake you’re fine. IIRC Diet Coke is 0 everything. Still seems unnatural and weird to ingest though.

Because that isn't all they are eating and drinking. I don't think diet soda is exactly good for you, but it isn't the cause of obesity.

[cigsthecat]

I think the concept is more dangerous than the diet soda itself.

[Satsuki]

bingo.

I think you should give up sweeteners to allow your tastebuds to adapt to an unsweetened palate. But whatever this thread isn’t a keto diet thread.
