This is strangely written, but interesting.

And let’s be clear: Caffeine-free soda is pointless.

—————————————————

Right. Let’s see you drink a 12 ounce diet Coke after 6 PM and then try to sleep at night.

And guess what? Diet Coke is 99% water. The rest of the ingredients are negligible.

I suck on caffeine mints all day.

They’re awesome.

I drink Diet Coke because I like the taste so much better than regular Coke. Ever since soft drinks started being made with that nasty corn syrup, I much prefer diet drinks. Especially since they have no calories.

I will, once in awhile, get a Mexican Coke or Dr. Pepper. With the real cane sugar like God intended.

Oh Yeah.

It reads as a translation from some other language.

I found the style to be very cute, like chilly turkey :)

Gave up Coke a few weeks ago, got back during a truly crazy weekend, and may stop in. Few days when I m traveling because I am planning to quit smoking. If I can’t manage both, I will focus on smoking.

This is the only place I am revealing this, except for my travel companions. Hopefully I won’t go completely nuts s I already have inclinations in that direction.

Eh, no biggie. I absolutely LOVED Coke Zero. Mixed well with adult beverage liquids. But, once I saw the stories about how Coca-Cola thinks I’m ‘too white’, both I and my family have stopped buying Coke completely.

The ONLY way I will EVER consider buying a Coke product again is for Coke to (A) Completely rescind that idiotic “racial equality” program within the company, (B) issue a public apology over every national broadcast and cable network, (C) the entire Coca-Cola executive board resigns, and (D) they donate 500 million dollars to the campaign to re-elect Donald J. Trump for President in 2024.

That’s what I drink the most. Caffeine free diet cola.

I like TAB, but I think they stopped making it. Up until about a year ago I could find it once in a while. Not lately, though.

I’m one of those people who can’t tell the difference between Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi. Used to drink one a day, but now maybe once a week.

Coffee will be with me forever.
Oh Yeah.

"caffeine mints"

If you eat at a Meskin restaurant in W Texas, many times you will find a basket of roasted coffee beans at the cashier counter.

Take a few and chew on them to relieve the need to take siesta after a big meal.

No. Just 240 ounces of Diet Coke.

Caffeine buzz.

I can drink 3-4 and sleep the sleep of the just. Drinking one now after a cup of real coffee at 8 PM. Won’t be a problem.
