Nothing like a little sugar, a little fizz, and a little caffeination in the morning!

diet coke has no sugar.

Doh! Non-sugar then! Heh. Artificial sweetener. Something that tastes sweet. I highly approve of sweet stuff in the morning.

it's better for you than coffee. right?

he wishes he could get the hang of coffee, but he's a soda fiend.

its my weakness also, that and sweet tea.

ANYTIME can be Diet Coke time! Good for you!!!

a former co-worker at another company used to drink 3 pepsi's by 10 or 11am. But back then, we got soda at $0.25. So, your diet coke is ok.

Not healthy, but by myself, I'll finish a two-liter bottle of diet cola in 2 days (whatever's on sale; I'm not a brand snob).

I think coffee has some natural health properties. The can is the most natural thing about Diet Coke.

Daddy-O natural, yes. "health properties"? Very questionable.

oh, skeptic: men.webmd.com/features/c...

lol yeah, coffee addicts I know use that as justification to drink more coffee.

Daddy-O, well, there's the problem, right there! relying on MD's for nutritionally accurate info is a bad idea to start with.

a craving for coffee but there is no white bread in the house and can't drink coffee without white bread.

yeah, science is for suckers. Right.

daferret LOL! Yeah, anything to justify an addiction.

I joke with Daddy-O, but when I find an article extolling the health benefits of soda, you can bet I'm posting it!

Kidding aside, though, MDs know drugs and procedures. Nutrition they have no clue. It's seems illogical, but that's the truth of the matter.

now I'm craving an aluminum can.

not as bad as a jack and coke at 7:30am

Mmmm...yummmy....aluminum!!!

sweet sweet diet coke. I'd shiv a man for one right now.

breakfast pf champions!

I'm with you. A Diet Coke is how I start every day!
