Like diet cola is a healthy option because it doesn't contain sugar.

Like "electric cars will save the planet from carbon emissions". No one bothers look deeper than the surface.

The secret is in the term "added." It's like saying "no added MSG" when it's doused in soy sauce.

Both statements exaggerations made by people who want you to think those things are not improvements worth pursuing... because somehow something ELSE will ACTUALLY be the thing which saves us, but mean time don't improve things.


Diet cola can *help* (it has its own problems of course)... and electric cars can absolutely *help* - especially in the right places (USPS, looking at your bone-headed decision...)


They're not magic.

How is it sweetened?
It has artificial sweeteners in it. (not corn syrup). And it's "no added sugar", but it does have calories, about 100 per 12 oz.

Anybody else appreciate the days where you can be at work off hours by yourself? It seems like the only time I can get anything done without being pestered to the point that I want to stab someone with a protractor.

So if they made it with sugar instead of toxic unnatural sweetners it would be about 150 calories?

A mountain dew throwback is 170 cals. Please, just make it with sugar.
