I am not that crazy about soda altogether - it's too sweet, plus, too many carbonated beverages over the long haul is bad for your bones. When I do drink soda, it's usuallydiet - I can't bring myself to ingest all that sugar in regular soda. Occasionally, I drink plain or lemon-lime seltzer, or mix it with juice.

Psst, rivka, I like rice cakes, too. [Wink]

Richard Berg, have you ever noticed how pervasive high fructose corn syrup IS? It's in everything. I started watching for it a couple of months ago, and was surprised what it was in. Like the whole wheat bread I used to buy. (I now buy a local stone ground wheat bread that doesn't have HFCS in it.) I think if you buy any prepared foods, it's nearly impossible to get away with *not* developing a taste for it.

I love Dr. Pepper, but discovered the raspberry iced tea at Mimi's in Denver a few weeks ago. Yum! It's the only kind I've had that isn't sweet. I have to figure out how to make it.

edit: Rivka, I like rice cakes too, though I *love* the cheddar flavor corn cakes. They make a good snack for the baby too. (I have to stop calling her a baby...)

Speaking of food/drink ODing...I used to like icing until I had a snowman cupcake. Ummm, that's pretty self explainitory. I ate the head, and haven't been able to eat much icing since.

It is very rare that I'll drink pop/soda be it diet or regular. Instead I'll opt for water or unsweetened Iced Tea.

All pop/soda tastes way too sweet/syrupy to me. Plus all that carbonation now gives me the hiccups almost immediately. [Smile]

My mother is addicted to diet coke. I swear that that is all I ever see her drink.

Try this;

Take one box of "Hot Tamalies" Put the entire contents of the box, not the box itself, in your mouth. As soon as you get it down chug a Dr. Pepper.

Be warned; It stings a little.

edit: to advoid the obvious sarcastic remark.

jeniwren - Yup. It's disconcerting. All driven by manufacturing costs, which in turn are propped up by artificially high cane sugar prices in an attempt to help the corn industry. Not that sugar would be better, once they refined it to hell and back.

In sum, almost as hard to avoid as partially hydrogenated [vegetable] oil, which is unfortunately even worse for you.
