I disagree with HFCS, in fact I authored a thread on my old account about it.
But, i think sodas are perfectly fine, as long as they are diet, and preferably, Zevia, which is a diet soda sweetened with stevia. If you dont know what that is, look it up.

Soda isn't "ok" because it has destroyed my teeth. The only real biological problem I have, teeth issues.
I drank Pepsi for about 10-15 years straight daily. I would go months without even a drink of water, or anything other than soda.
My teeth are quite damaged from this.
I do not have any other problems. I didn't die, because it's 98% water.
It wore them down a bit and so they are now extremely sensitive and soft.
That's the truth right there, from one of the biggest pepsi addicts in history to you folks here at ATS.
I regret drinking soda like this, I really do.
It's very embarrassing.
But I will admit it to you people so that you may not end up like me.edit on 1-11-2011 by muzzleflash because: (no reason given)

Yeah... Junk food and flu shots are.
Junk food has chemicals in it which have basis in science to make food taste better and preserve longer.
Flu shots are perfectly safe and are also based in science to allow your body to make antibodies to fight off infection. By not getting one you are only hurting yourself.
