    Pop Drinkers

    What's your poison, and how much do you consume?

    I'm not a pop (soda) drinker. I'll have a Pepsi on Friday nights, which is pizza night around here.

    My oldest boy and myself are water drinkers. I have a 5 gallon water cooler in the kitchen, plus we have an RO system. I've pretty much cut all caffeine out of my diet, and for health reasons, and I feel better for doing so. As for my wife and other kids - if they ever stop drinking Pepsi products their stock will drop sharply.

    What's pop?


    I drink a Dr. Pepper most mornings on my way to school. Then I drink water the rest of the day.

    Beer at night.

    Re: Pop Drinkers

    I like Coke, but I'll generally drink several types, depending on what's available - Coke, Pepsi, Mountain Dew, Sprite, Sierra Mist, Surge. Even Big K Orange soda isn't bad.

    This is probably my weakest point of my diet - if I could cut out the soft drinks, I'd be in much better shape.

    I try to buy Crystal Lite, but it's more expensive than I like paying.

    I just bought a Coke Zero to try again, but still don't like it much. I might try it again, 'cause that would cut out some calories.

    A cold Coke, however, is still my preference, and a hard habit to break

    I'm on a Diet Dr. Pepper kick at the moment. I try not to drink much of it, though.

    If I drink pop, I usually stick to Dr. Pepper or his evil arch-nemesis, Mr. Pibb.

    I drink diet 7up, but I believe Coke is the best cold medicine there is. And if there weren't something like 29 teaspoons of sugar in it, I'd drink a Coke at every meal.

    I gave up pop for Lent... but otherwise it's Sprite or any kind of root beer (something w/o caffeine). I trying very hard to give that up as well and try to drink more water or drink more tea.

    Diet Pepsi.

    A better question would be to ask, when am I not drinking soda.

    Re: Pop Drinkers

    I don't keep it on hand as I'd drink it way too much, but Mountain Dew is still my choice when I sto pat a gas station on a road trip, etc.., with a nice cold Coke very close 2nd. A good red cream soda (Big Red) is 3rd.

    Mr. Pibb is a replica of Dr Pepper, but it's a bullcrap replica, 'cause dude didn't even get his degree. Why'd you have to drop out and start makin' pop so soon?

    You might not want to mention Sierra Mist around Krono.

    Re: Pop Drinkers

    Oh, and Pepsi is my choice for cola. I don't dislike Coke, but I prefer Pepsi. I also dislike the Coke monopoly at restaurants.

    I used to drink Mountain Dew like it's going out of style.

    I really need to cut way way back, but it's hard to do. Honestly, I would like to cut it out completely. Maybe one day.

    Coke is my preference, but I'm trying to cut down a bit on it. As it is now, I have 3 or 4 in a week.
