Perhaps Sunny Delight is made differently here in the States!
Pikachu, your preference for fruit juice is entirely logical & acceptable. Thank you for the warning about E numbers.

Trust me, I am about to (yes, I sleep during the day, poking my head out to score, and to buy cigars, sign on the dole, and attend ***, pointless probation meetings, thats about it.
I do want one though, soon as I have some spare cash, although I imagine the undertaker is going to give me a bit of Weyrdeness, once I ask for a coffin big enough to hold two people.
How else, am I supposed to sleep beside any woman that might just decide they like goth type auties, leather, and long canine teeth :lol:
"coffin big enough for two please, undertaker"
*undertaker* "what the roasted christ are you doing, to want two people, in a F*cking coffin"
*me*
"sleep, and possibly acts of extreme sexual deviance"
That will be all, go build my coffin, I'm tired........... :razz:
You made me, I just had to, although in all seriousness, I do want a double-sized coffin, for those entirely innocent use (apart from said perversion hehehe)
Man, Guy+chick/Chick+chick in coffin=damned hot.

Funny that no-one has mentioned Dasani until now!
As the player's breath warms the fipple the tone clears.
It is time to consider how Domenico Scarlatti
condensed so much music into so few bars
with never a crabbed turn or congested cadence,
never a boast or a see-here; and stars and lakes
echo him and the copse drums out his measure,
snow peaks are lifted up in moonlight and twilight
and the sun rises on an acknowledged land.
Basil Bunting, Briggflatts

Lol, ain't gotta tell me twice about diet sweetners. I've got an allergy to aspartame, don't think I'm phenylketoneuric but I used to feel a twitching in the base of my head when I took any reasonably large amount of that stuff in and later on I'd just dumb out, couldn't think for anything and my social skills would be almost straight out the window. I've learned that Splenda isn't too bad and I don't get that effect from it, though I still avoid it because I'm wary about what else it might do. As for other stuff sugar alcohols - never had a problem, Ace K - I've got my suspicions that acefulmate potassium does something similar to me (got the same aspartame effect off of a can of Diet Rockstar which had no aspartame in it from what I could see on the back).

I think diet softdrinks taste just horrid and mostly are a waste of time, Would rather have fruit juice, milk , or regular soft-drinks, or water.

hey vanilla coke tastes like rum and coke. it's a good alternative if you don't want the alcohol.
haven't had jolt in years. i'm really sensitive to caffeine, so it would probably kill me now. pepsi blue isn't good. i don't like raspberries. coke blak was excellent when it was out. too expensive though.
my faves are cherry coke, C2 (when it was out), black cherry vanilla coke. i try to drink only diet now bc i don't want diabetes. diet sodas have come a long way. diet wild cherry pepsi is good. too bad about the caffeine.
coke with lime and coke with lemon seem worthless to me.
i can't do energy drinks. caffeine and the taste of butt? no thx.

I didn't mind vanilla coke all that much, but mostly I dislike carbonated drinks (I preferred green tea) and vanilla coke just taste as ok as I might judge another pepsi/coke variety.

Diet Coke tastes like mud mixed with something nasty my cat just did.
Vanilla Coke is not bad. Dr Pepper -- I like, but the only place I've found it recently in New Zealand is at the British Lolly Shop (go figure).
Pepsi is better than Coke.
But creamy soda is better than everything else.
And I like Spiders.

Sunny delgith may be amde differently in the states. What may support that idea is if there have been no instances of Orange skin colouration like there was briefly in the UK...
This excerpt below is from Wikipedia.
"According to a BBC News report, the negative publicity escalated when a SunnyD ad showing a snowman turn orange was released at about the same time as reports of a girl who turned orange (due to the UK product's use of Beta Carotene for color) after drinking too much Sunny Delight."

Re: mel
Can anyone actually taste the difference between coke and pepsi? because i cant.
There is a difference in taste between the two but it's very subtle with Pepsi just about edging it!
Despite these discoraging remarks about Pepsi Max Cappuchino I would really like to give it a go.
It should prefably have a catchy slogan to go with it as well!

Hey, I like Mountain Dew! It's like Sprite!
Sprite is the greatest soda ever.
I like Coke, but I dislike Pepsi. There is that slight difference in taste that annoys the hell out of me.
I think Diet Coke takes and fizzes better than regular Coke.
Vanilla Coke and Lime Coke are really good.
I haven't had this in years, but raspberry soda... IS SO GREAT. D:<

Vanilla Coke is okay and I think I'd like lime coke if it was available in the regular and not diet variety.

Apparently if you put just a few drops of lemon juice in Coke, it will taste like Pepsi.
But cola is cola. I buy "Budget" brand. You get just as much for a fifth of the price.

I tried some Pepsi Max yesterday but it almost made me throw up!
I don't care for regular Pepsi much either but like Solo and Mountain Dew.
The only cola I really liked was Schweppes Export Cola but that hasn't been sold here for many years. I like other varieties of Schweppes but also Wimmers and Kirks. Cottees were good but I think they have been bought out by a bigger company.

Dr. Drizzle
Dr. Dazzle is also pretty bad. It's a generic-ish Dr. Pepper and I thought I was allergic to it until recently. Now I just tihnk it tastes like medicine, but not as much so as strawberry Cool Whip.
