Posted July 29, 2006 Dont drink diet drinks seroiusly, aspartame and saccarine are really bad for your brain. Aspartame has been accused of just about everything possible, but all of these accusations have been proved false. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 29, 2006 Aspartame has been accused of just about everything possible, but all of these accusations have been proved false. My mate told me that the 'aspartame causes cancer' thing came from experiments where they injected rats with like, 100% proof aspartame, which coke and that certainly is not. Right?

Posted July 29, 2006 My mate told me that the 'aspartame causes cancer' thing came from experiments where they injected rats with like, 100% proof aspartame, which coke and that certainly is not. Right? Yeah. There was a big article about it in New Scientist a few weeks back, saying how, as yet, it has no proven negative effects. So even the rats one was wrong.

Posted August 2, 2006 Today I went into town and they were giving out free mini Coke Zero cans. I wanted to not like it (previously hadnt had any before) but I did, despite thinking it would be rubbish. Im not sure if I was blindfolded I could tell the normal and zero apart. I'll stick with normal though. Plus to who-ever said water and juices are the way to go; i agree with you. Ill only drink fizzy stuff in pubs (as a treat) or if its free! There is the odd exception though. Im in no way an addict. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Right? It probably does. Everything causes cancer these days Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 3, 2006 I prefer Coke to Pepsi. My opinion. Dont 'all hail' one or the other. Coca Cola is a bit more fizzy than Pepsi, I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 3, 2006 All cola, even the cheap ones, taste nice if ice cold. I bet Coke Zero is no exception. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 3, 2006 After 4 pages of heated discussion, I'm sure we can all agree that original Coca-Cola wins, but Zero is a close enough approximation, and the fact that this has been achieved without the use of sugar makes it worthy of some recognition But I still prefer alcoholic drinks.
