Are you addicted to Coke? or caffeine?

Lately it's been more, and I'm thinking I should perhaps cut back a bit. Chris |

"Cox SMTP east" wrote in message .. . I drink about 1 diet soda/week - if that. I have coffee daily - one cup. I love the taste of coffee, but am so caffeine sensitive that if I have a cup later than about 1:00 PM I can't go to sleep right away. Absolutely cannot drink real coke, even though I love it. The combo of sugar and caffeine puts me on the ceiling! My youngest is allergic to corn and one of the worst offenders is regular soda - anything with corn syrup. I am forced to buy him diet soda, which he adores and drinks about 1 can per day. I wish one of the big soda manufacturers would switch to Splenda. Elise Diet Rite is pretty easy to get most places. It's all caffeine free, sodium free, and made with Splenda. http://dietrite.com Elise, they sell this at Giant -- at least the one in Gainesville. It doesn't get much shelf space compared to Coke & Pepsi, though, so you have to hunt for it. Chris |

During the summer I was up to 4 cans of diet code red a day so I had to quit. Jenn |

I hardly ever drink sodas. But when I do, it's Diet Coke, or Diet Vanilla Coke or Diet Dr. Pepper. One of the three. But coffee rules. I buy freshly roasted beans and grind what I need daily. I loathe lousy coffee. Martha |

Since I typically only drink decaf Diet Coke, caffeine isn't the
addictive agent for me. -- ¤bicker¤ "It is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring." - Carl Sagan People are, of course, welcome to place whatever irrelevant limitations on their ability to enjoy something that they wish. |

Have you tried Diet Rite or Diet RC? Both are made with Splenda, not
Aspartame. IMO, they both have a much cleaner taste and less aftertaste. The Diet Rite is caffeine free and the Diet RC isn't. -- Email me at: perpleglow(AT)comcast.net "bicker 2003" 1NVAL1D wrote in message ...

Thanks..I'll get some today. One day Giant is going to charge me rent I am
there so much. I have not perfected the art of a weekly shopping trip. Shoot...I just discovered coupons after years of just tossing them. Elise (who is not a domestic goddess).

2 or 3 cups of green tea every morning and 3 diet cokes a day.

lol, I hate coupons too.... so much work and keeping track of everything to
save $.10. Anyway, I hate that all the stores require you to have a membership card now to get discounts. I always fill mine out with the name Jane Doe and phone number of 214-555-1212. I then throw away my card. So, when I go through check out, they just need the phone number on the card. No, I am not paranoid. It just annoys me that stores do that. -- Email me at: perpleglow(AT)comcast.net "Cox SMTP east" wrote in message ... Thanks..I'll get some today.
