For me I say that a truck with a cab longer than its bed is not a truck, but an SUV with an overgrown bumper.

Artificial sweeteners is one of the reasons I'm not obese. You can quote me all the studies you want, diet coke is not a gateway drink to regular coke, and splenda on my black coffee doesn't make me crave a caramel macchiato.

I don't care about the calories. Artificial sweeteners taste like plastic cancer, so it's normal coke for me.

I'm kind on the same hill. I find that artificial sweetener leave a terrible taste in the mouth.

The worst is that some regular drinks are using sugar plus sweetener. I got this bad surprise now than once after taking the first sip.

Like fountain coke. It has aspartame and corn syrup.
