Haha, yes. I'll chime in with an "AMEN!"

Not the domestic stuff, though. Real beer = imported beers

I have to say, I didn't see anything in the original post that was saying amazingly bad stuff about the drink. In fact, after reading that, I'd probably be more inclined to drink Coke, especially after reading that it stimulates the the pleasure receptors in our brains.

Can someone tell me what the negative stuff is? Because I can't see it.

I had Coke today, by the way. Very nice.

Does anyone remember the song I'd Like To Teach the World To Sing? By the New Seekers? "I'd like to build the world a home/And furnish it with love/Grow apple trees and honey bees/And snow white turtle doves/I'd like to teach the world to sing/In perfect harmony..."

They did a Coke commerical with the same tune, and changed the lyrics to, "I'd like to buy the world a Coke..."

I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing isn't a bad song, you know.

Coke....or Heroin....hmm......

Yeah, I think I'll take my chances on Coke. Seriously, if people spent as much time slamming real problems like, I dunno, huffing, as they spend damming pop, we may get something worthwhile accomplished. Holy ****....

Coffee has like 100 different chemicals in it....go tear that apart for awhile.

NO! Please don't tear down coffee. That's my vice. I'm drinking some right now.

There's a reason for that. The ingredients in Aspartame are headache-prone. I'm with you here. If I drink a juice/soda, I'll always go with the real sugar instead of this ingredient found in the "diet" and "light" sections.

I've also cut down my soda intake tremendously since around mid-November 2006 because of all the sugar it contains. I am finding that I am not missing sodas all that much.

I gotta be in the mood for a Guinness, though. That stuff REALLY kicks your ass if you're not in the mood.

Talking of soft drinks, after I became a fan of the Back to the Future trilogy, I started drinking Pepsi more, because Marty drank it a few times in those movies.

I think I can actually taste the difference between Coke and Pepsi.

It is the beer that eats like a meal, I can't drink more than 3 (too heavy) which makes it a good choice when you want to stay semi coherant

YES. But I can't stand it black. It has to have some flavor to it.
