Diet Coke.
May 16, 2008
I think I might be a Diet Coke-aholic. My day just isn’t the same without a Diet Coke. I’m not sure what it is…the caffeine or just the mental build-up to actually drinking one…or maybe it’s the snappy silver can. It’s definitely a problem, though, and very few things can act as a substitute. Diet Pepsi is an absolute bust. If a restaurant only serves Pepsi products, I am basically screwed. I have to suffer through the meal with water, and then afterwards, I immediately head to a drive-through and order a large Diet Coke. Sometimes, I can fend off the craving with something from Starbucks, but this usually only works in the morning and right around 3pm. At Happy Hour, if I haven’t had my fix for the day, I will actually postpone getting a vodka cocktail in order to first slurp down a Diet Coke. The flavored ones are not for me…vanilla, cherry, lemon, and so on. I prefer the original…the one that supposedly rots the inside of your stomach. I may give Diet Coke Plus a try. Everyone could benefit from a little B12 and magnesium, right? A Diet Coke packed with vitamins is right up my alley. A little spice to go along with the sparkle. Diet Coke…just for the taste of it.
