I rarely knew a person who doesnt drink a soda. Even some of my friends who are health conscious drink soda. What do you get from drinking soda? For me I drink soda to quench my thirst and my craving. But I see to it that I dont drink softdrinks everyday since it might lead to obesity and diabetis.

Well said Boyetski. It is right that too much is not good for us so the key is moderation.

I am, I was off soda for several years before starting college. I crave it because I'm a big caffiene fan. Chocolate and the such. Can't help it. I have a huge sweet tooth and a soda usually crushes it. A good bit of the time I don't even drink the dark sodas so that should count as something.

I am a soda drinker but not everyday just when I need to drink soda. But now, i am off any soda of any kind. I don't know when will this last but I am off it for many days now starting january 1st. Hmmm...
I did not drink soda for a year because of health reasons back in 2000 but I drank again occasionally after I was very well. The reason now? Just for knowing if I can discipline myself into not drink soda LOL

Oh dear. Soda is one of my all time weaknesses. More specifically, Coca Cola is my all time weakness. I just love the way it tastes and the way the bubbles tickle my throat. I'm one of those Coca Cola purists. I never drink Pepsi if I can help it, because I can taste the difference. I wasn't able to tell the difference when I was younger, but I now I feel that Pepsi tastes metallic. Although I can stand other off-brands of cola, I can't stand Pepsi. Coke is my favorite.
Every so often, I remember that soda is so unhealthy, so I go on a soda fast to abstain from it. I usually last a month before I falter. It's addictive for me. However, I do feel a lot more healthy when I've gone without soda for a while.

Many people drink soda for refreshment but drinking soda always add more energy for me, to be precise coke contain some amount of sucrose which can be converted to ATP..... when someone is hungry and the food is not ready, someone can take this as a supplement.

I am definitely a soda drinker. There is not a day that goes by that I do not drink soda. I'm definitely addicted to caffeine so I need that daily pick me up especially when I get home from work.
