A Note on Sugar Highs

Note to self: Diet Pepsi tastes like total dirty drain water after one has licked the frosting off a cupcake.

An interesting observation. Perhaps full sugar Kool-Aid would have been a better choice?

This is possibly what is wrong with our society. We load up on sweets, and justify it with a diet soda...guilty as charged.

I think of two possible things that are troubling with this. How on earth does one know how drain water tastes, and to all of you people that drink diet, they have come out with reports that diet soda will kill you faster than regular cola,(because of all of the chemicals, etc.) I for one, enjoyed the cupcake, didn't drink the drain water, didn't open the diet, and enjoyed the cola....what a great life.....

I read somewhere that letting a 2 liter of diet pop (we don't say "soda" around here) sit in the sun can produce formaldehyde. I think it's the aspartame breaking down. Yummy!

Don't worry - - it's just a Pepsi thing.

Diet Coke is great.

My dad worked in new product development for General Foods for years. Apparently, Diet Pepsi does have some flavor that a small percentage of the population perceives as just plain bad.

I'm one of them. If I ask for Diet Coke at a restaurant, and they bring Diet Pepsi. Back it goes. I can't drink it.
