No, diet soda is just normal soda with no sugar, which can help people who can't metabolise sugar well, and tend to go hyper. So your argument is void.

hence why I wrote "Drinking light products or other special versions of a product due to an allergy or something is all good." If you can't lay off the sugar due to medical reasons it's okay. Though even then you would probaby be better of staying away from soda and other sugar products all together. But for those who use diet products while on a diet to lose weight... :lol:

I used to drink a lot of mt dew, until i started paying attention to my diet, now it's just water.

i drink a soda maybe once every 3 months or so, it usually a diet coke then.

Root beer is best for taste, though I go for Mountain Dew as the classic gamer fuel.

My favorite is probably Kinnie, an obscure Maltese soft drink with a slightly bitter orange peel flavor.
Since it isn't regularly sold outside of Malta, I'll go with Tonic.

There's been research done that shows that your body responds to the sweet taste of diet drinks in the same way that it does to a drink that actually has sugar in it. I can't remember exactly how it works, but the result is that you actually gain weight. Granted, we're not talking about much and possibly less than if you drank a normal sugary drink, but still....irony anyone?

They changed the Tizer recipe recently. I believe they changed it to make it closer to the original recipe, but for people like us who were brought up with the "old" Tizer (the one with the head branding, 'itzred' etc) it's completely different to the Tizer we've always had. I don't like the "new" one either.
