    Had a diet soda after work yesterday. Just sat down right now after getting home from work and am craving one intensely.

    There is no way something so yummy and habit forming is consequence-free.

        Right? There’s nothing good about synthetic sweetener. Why not go with the “devil you know” (sugar) which actually tastes better? I don’t get it

          Can’t speak for the poster above, but my pancreas decided a couple decades ago to stop producing insulin. So, the “devil I know” will turn my blood into pancake syrup in short order if I’m not careful.
