sifFlammable: Coke Zero

sifFlammable 04.13.12	on a separate note, i havent listened to this yet but it'll rule
Spec 04.13.12	I smoke. That's worse.
Trebor. 04.13.12	tastes so fucking bad
sifFlammable 04.13.12	watch your tongue sonny boy na but serz idk its so tempting the flavour of coca cola + zero calories
Trebor. 04.13.12	It doesn't taste like coke It tastes like artificial sweetner
Emim 04.13.12	yeah how bout you just not drink it considering it tastes like diet coke mixed with shit
Spec 04.13.12	Yeah it tastes like shit. Also I haven't actually smoked in a while, so proud of myself.
Satellite 04.13.12	dude the scare about aspartame has been around forever and it's entirely bullshit. just an urban legend.
sifFlammable 04.13.12	well right now the plan is to continue drinking it until it tastes like medicine
sifFlammable 04.13.12	hmm yeah sat thats what iv been hoping was the case reckon its just safe to continue consumption? ))
Spec 04.13.12	I don't know man. There's been some studies that found some pretty nasty things but for the most part they're very hard to find. Not advertised at all. I wouldn't pound that shit down too often.
TMobotron 04.13.12	I mean you could switch over to something that uses splenda or some shit (because coke zero blows anyway), but yeah that whole aspartame debate is complete bullshit until someone can pull up some real proof on how it has negatively affected humans, which they can't. Health nuts love to blast you with constant bullshit about how bad aspartame is for you but no one can actually tell you what negative effect is has on you. I actually wouldnt be surprised at all if there was some negative effect to ingesting a ton of artificial sweetener like that, but it's been around for so damn long with no clear sign of being bad that the effect would have to be small enough that you shouldn't get concerned over drinking a reasonably large amount of coke zeros. I read on some forum not too long ago questions from people who were literally eating stuff like splenda or sweet n low constantly. Like they were eating it as a form of dieting to replace meals because it tasted great and was zero calories. If you start doing that, get fucking concerned. Otherwise, drink up on that coke zero. Also, great album choice. Can't wait for it.
Trebor. 04.13.12	Calories are for energy, if something has zero calories it might as well be water
Spec 04.13.12	Caffeine yo.
theacademy 04.13.12	OH WOW RECENT REPORTS ABOUT ASPARTAME?????
TMobotron 04.13.12	except coke zero or other diet sodas provide a sweet taste that water doesn't and some people enjoy that. It also has sodium and like Spec said caffeine. Energy drinks can be zero calorie too but still have tons of shit that separates it from water.
Trebor. 04.13.12	This shit is one of things that makes me hate america
SCREAMorphine 04.13.12	Haven't had a Coke Zero since they come out, good reason for that
auberginedreams 04.13.12	i like it.
KILL 04.13.12	just drink coke fuck u
auberginedreams 04.13.12	diet soda is an easy way to cut down on calories though.
auberginedreams 04.13.12	and i do drink normal coke every now and then.
KILL 04.13.12	but it tastes like fuck
auberginedreams 04.13.12	i know people say that, but honestly it tastes fine to me.
Satellite 04.13.12	http://www.snopes.com/medical/toxins/aspartame.asp
Mickeymau5 04.13.12	Im happy drinking the mexican coke, real sugar is better.
Captain North 04.13.12	Coke zero tastes exactly the same as normal coke. Diet coke is the one that tastes shit.
TMobotron 04.13.12	Diet Coke tastes like a drink that understands that it's different. It's been artificially sweetened and so it should be different from regular Coke. Coke Zero tastes like a drink that doesn't understand that. It wants to be the same as Coke, but fucking fails miserably and ends up tasting like this pathetically syrupy drink that wants to taste like Coke but ends up being some artificially syrupy sweet drink that can't satisfy the original coke crowd and can't satisfy the diet coke crowd either.
ReturnToRock 04.13.12	Coke Zero has aspartame? Blimey! stops drinking it
Captain North 04.13.12	I dunno, most people I know don't seem to mind it. Then there's Pepsi Max which actually tastes better than Pepsi
tiesthatbind 04.13.12	Diet soda is nasty
bakkermaarten007 04.13.12	"drink beer pussy." I've never drank beer pussy in my life, does it taste more like pussy or like beer?
InFiction 04.13.12	I know that it tastes like shit.
ZippaThaRippa 04.13.12	I laughed.
Aids 04.13.12	"diet soda is an easy way to cut down on calories though." fucking idiots man. you could always stop drinking sodas. still has buckets of sugar in it. coke zero is about 0.000005% healthier than coke.
paxman 04.13.12	What Aids said. You're not going to lose any weight by drinking diet soda. Also, aspartame is the worst tasting shit ever. Just thinking about it makes me sick.
bakkermaarten007 04.13.12	Drink water, juices, coffee and some alcohol in the evening like I do. That's way healthier than drinking soda all day. Even with the alcohol.
Sirob 04.13.12	drugs make everything better guys.
TheFonz123 04.13.12	when i was younger i was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, and was told that artificial sweetener was unhealthy for those with the disease so i steered clear as best I could for a while. that's about all i know
sifFlammable 04.13.12	"fucking idiots man. you could always stop drinking sodas. still has buckets of sugar in it. coke zero is about 0.000005% healthier than coke." uh no this assumes that you'd be drinking normal coke instead of diet coke. this being the case drinking coke zero would be /very much/ healthier than coke. also i can't really get over the 'diet' tag on diet coke so i drink coke zero lets be real it makes you feel like a fag drinking it
Counterfeit 04.13.12	"drink beer pussy." Drink Jameson, pussy.
auberginedreams 04.13.12	"fucking idiots man. you could always stop drinking sodas. still has buckets of sugar in it. coke zero is about 0.000005% healthier than coke." it has no sugar though... at least diet coke doesn't, which is what i normally drink. and i don't need to lose any weight, i just figure if i'm going to drink soda i might as well save those calories for something else.
Emim 04.13.12	"Coke zero tastes exactly the same as normal coke." HA omg tell me another one Artificial sweeteners fuck with your tastebuds though
bloc 04.13.12	I'm pretty sure aspartame is a carcinogen /thread
omnipanzer 04.13.12	I can't stand any artificial sweetener I've ever tried for more than a taste or two. Cane sugar is my preference for the best flavor and aftertaste but I don't drink more than six soft drinks in an average week at the most.
Hyperion1001 04.13.12	just drink water
KjSwantko 04.13.12	If you eat healthy and generally are healthy then the sugar in coke won't be detrimental to you. I do remember reading an article about how any carbonated beverage, zero calorie or not, was still linked to gaining weight though. But as far as the aspartame concern, try Zevia, it's a natural zero calorie soda made from Stevia which is a natural sweetener. You can find it in a lot of grocery stores.
sifFlammable 04.13.12	my only concern at this stage is the “Generally Recognized As Safe” process by the FDA which really isnt very assuring / suspect to political and financial pressures
bloc 04.13.12	"I don't drink more than six soft drinks in an average week at the most. " Dude that's actually quite a bit still
KjSwantko 04.13.12	dude just drink regular coke and keep it in moderation.
sifFlammable 04.14.12	"try Zevia" ive been told that zevia is decent for many flavours but is poor on the cola flavour. sucks.
someguest 04.14.12	I've heard aspartame won't be around much longer with its links to brain cancer. And this is from the healthcare professional in my family. Ask any doctor about aspartame and you'll get an answer you won't want to hear.
