I just wanna see single word answers here. No reasons why or dissing of the less favoured brand. Both is also not allowed... you have to prefer one or the other!
We are talking about drinking straight... not as a mixer with your favourite No.7 Tennessee Whiskey....

coke (even though I never drink it), diet coke is worse for you than normal coke becasue it contains a bad chemical.

neither as caffeine screws my kidneys up.
tgruitt - what's the bad chemical? Every food ingredient has to go through stringent approval regs.
------------- Not all chemicals are bad. Without chemicals such as hydrogen and
oxygen, for example, there would be no way to make water, a vital
ingredient in beer.

It wasn't to make it fizzy, that's the job of the carbonated water.
A small amount of cocaine was added at first to give people a boost and was marketed as a medicinal drink.

Its to do with the sweeteners, lots of claims and counter claims about whether they are carginogens. It is worh pointing out one of the ingredients in aspartamene (sp?) is arsenic . Other problem is the human body has not evolved to digest this chemicals so gawd knows what it does to your innards?
Now real Ale on the other hand.....

I love the taste of beer BNS but it gives me severe tummy ache (that's what comes with having a severe tummy in the first place I suppose). For some reason, lager doesn't. ...... which is nice..
