The amount of studies that keep claiming diet soda/artificial sweeteners are bad for you are finally getting to me.

They probably aren't any better for your body than regular soda which is the whole reason I originally switched to them, though now I just prefer the taste.

I just don't know what the gently caress to drink instead of them though (don't say water).

Try carbonated flavored water. Some of them taste pretty close to popular sodas. Not La Croix though unless you like cat piss flavored soda.

Refrigerator brewed tea is stupid easy: put some teabags in a pitcher of water (mint and other herbs also recommended) leave for 8 hours.
works with any tea or tisane blend.

You can drink LaCroix or other flavored but unsweetened sparkling water, or there's Zevia, a soda flavored with stevia which is calorie free and a plant extract, or sweet drops which are flavored stevia drops. Those all tend to be acquired tastes though.

Since we're all fear mongering about scary zero calorie drinks

I love me some seltzer, I go through a 2L bottle of it every week or so in the summer, you can get just about any flavor you want too. Or get unflavored and add fruit juice. It's been so long since I've had actual soda that I hate the super-sweet taste now (unless there's liquor involved).

This does not make sense when, again, aggregate indicia also indicate improvements. The belief that things are worse is false. It remains false.

Same, that mix of caffeine + sugar + carbonation is an addiction. Using a carbinator machine doesn't even come close. But for me it's just regular Coca-cola.

I've been drinking a ton more water lately tho. But I've gotten kinda sick of sweet tea and green tea is no replacement for either that or soda.

Nice screen name (it's laser time,) also of course. Oh well, I drink coffee, which is simultaneously the best and worst depending on the study, I'm sure what weird oils are used to flavor LaCroix are the least of my problems.

You could, but you shouldn't.

Really going ahead and replacing the Thing That Is Bad For You with an another thing almost but not quite like it doesn't seem to work.

Everything in your post has its own potential health effects. How severe are they, really? gently caress knows, our data's poo poo.

They don't even need to sparkle. There was a study released a bunch of years ago about how mineral water, being exempt from many of the regulations controlling tapwater quality, contained far higher levels of potentially harmful substances like lead. The one that stuck with me is that the brand Badoit contains fifty times the legally permitted level of uranium.

Iranian women don't wear burkas. If you wear a burka in Iran, people will think you're an Arab or an Afghan. They do wear headscarves, but they do not hide their faces.



On the other hand, while we're talking about sexist, abusive, anti-women policies...

There's a sliding scale from cheap to expensive where Ketchup on a burger tastes awful, like fast food dollar menu burgers, then tastes okay, Chili's/Dining burgers, then goes back to just ruining the burger once you start getting more fancy/artisanal burgers.

Sorry I just really wanted to talk about burgers for a second.
