I've had a total of 2 cans of soda in the last year (on plane flights).  While at work, I only drink water, about 64oz per day.  But back on topic here :), our local paper covered this same story today.

What moron is going to pay a $150 deposit rather than go someplace else?    :o

Which would you rather have, in soda terms?  150 calories of caffeine and raw sugar or 0 calories and an artificial sweetener linked to Alzheimer's?  The 0 calorie sweeteners are just now, after 20 or so years of heavy use, showing their long term effects, and the studies coming out are not pretty.

And I have a hard time imagining that something that gives me a headache about 5 minutes after consumption (every artificial sweetener I have tried) is better for me than sugar.

Admitedly, my lazy ass needs to drink much less soda, but switching to diet is not the solution for me.
