I used to drink lots of soft drinks when I was young.Coke, Sunkist, 7up,cream soda, you name it.Especially when it was in summer time or after a sports event, I love to pend money in buying soft drink and sometimes I would drank a whole liter of it. dinner time also means soft drink time and I love to have it on my table.As time goes by, I am getting old and understand that soft drink is not good for health at all, I stop to drink it. Right now, I only drink it once or twice a year and I will drink some water immediately after I have drank it.Share with me about your experience.

When I was younger, I loved drinking coke and sprite. My mom used to say one should drink soda after eating fatty foods like pork. In my family, drinking lots of soda and burping loudly afterwards was a good thing. But now that I have my own family, I realized that this was not a good practice. We only drink soda once in a while. nowadays, chocolate, milk and tea are what you can find in my cupboard.

I used to eat pork a lot since it is a part of our cultural food. I started to reduce its intake after some one studies and TV program shown us that pork is just not really clean food . According to the Bible , a pig is an unclean animal and that's why the Jewish culture prohibited to eat pork. In one interview, the butcher testified that during his career as a butcher, he has never cut off a pig without seeing some worms in there. Maybe that's why we shouldn't eat pork since it always carry disease that wouldn't even know about. But practically , if we don't eat pork , then there is just not much for u to eat.We are not eating lamb chops as common as what others cultures do.Beef and chicken will always be the major food for us. It will so boring to eat chicken and beef everyday and the fishes are just so expensive in our city. That leave us no choice and we have to eat pork all the times. But after I knew about the truth, I started to have some phobia towards pork. I still will eat it but maybe once a week or once two week to reduce the intake of this kind of meat.Well, I wish we can have more choices on food but sometimes it is just not that easy. I don't want to be a vegetarian, since there are so many good food with good taste in the city. On the other hand , being a vegetarian can be so boring in life because I won't be able to enjoy many good taste food in this world if I become one.Health or enjoy life is always a choice for us. Think about that , if you have health but can't enjoy more food in life, then health means nothing. On the other hand, if you will enjoy life, then you will probably needs to be unhealthy once awhile.What is the balance between this two? It is up to us to decide it. Well, I hope you can have health and also enjoy life as well. Have a good day.

These days I tend to drink far more tea than I drink soft drinks, but I really do still love my soft drinks and I will drink one or two of them each day. Right now I am on a Pepsi kick and that is the softdrink that I drink the majority of the time. However, I can look back through my life and I realize that I've had periods where I drank mostly Dr. Pepper and I also had my Mountain Dew phase. Now it is Pepsi for me, however, and I really can't explain why.

I am a cola drinker since I was 3 years old until now I notice diabetes and I have stopped for a while last 10 years and this year I make a comeback drinking 6 cans a day. Mom is shocked and told me I am getting diabetes and I aware of it. After that I lessen my intake of cola to 3 cans a day but that's still not fine with me and mom so now I only drink cola once in 3 days. Anyway, this week I have found my new interest and it is milk. I found it is so fine drinking milk rather than cola. And to avoid osteoporosis also. I am 29 I want to make my bones healtier now rather than after 30 years old my bones will start getting weaker and weaker.
MILK :)

I've always been a coke lover. I know it's bad for one's health but when I start drinking, I just can't stop. I love to drink it during summer and even after a full meal. But now, I try to cut my soda consumption to a minimum 'cause it makes me gain weight and my family has a history of diabetes.

Mountain Dew all the way! I don't drink a lot of soft drinks but when I do I always go for MD! I personally like the original best, and then voltage.

Buttermilk is my cheapest and the best drink which I am enjoying right since my childhood. I drink buttermilk even when I am drunk.

Personally, I am a water drinker. I used to drink pepsi and coke. When I did drink soda, I would drink a lot of it! Its kind of hard to stop. It makes you thirstier and you crave it. Not sure why but thats what happened to me. Now I have soda once in a great while. (:
