1/2 cal soda

Aspartame (aka Splenda and other no calorie sweeteners) taste like ass. Soda, which tastes delicious, is sometimes too sweet and it's just empty calories. Why is it the only choice we have in sodas is Diet, aspartame sweetened, and regular, with like 60+ grams of sugar per 20oz bottle? Mix the Splenda and the sugar and give me a 1/2 calorie soda. Or just reduce the amount of sugar you put into it. And fuck you coke... I don't use colgate.

Aspartame was originally denied for use by the FDA as it caused cancer in test rats, no joke. I believe it was the president of the US (whoever it was at the time, I can't remember off of the top of my head) who actually pushed it into production, probably under the pressure of the companies winding up to produce the shit.

Well, soda now uses high fructose corn syrup, which tastes way too sweet. Not to mention its bad for you, just ask Alex. Pepsi throwback was probably the greatest thing ever. I wish i could still pick it up somewhere.

Aspartame is what they use in diet drinks. I am well aware of the dangers of HFCS, you just chose to never give a shit when I said anything about it.

That is because all you do is plot conspiracy theories. I do know its not good for me, but I'm just now getting around to making a change.

Only the one I believe to be true. Otherwise I state them as theories.
