    I visited my brother recently and his downstairs fridge was completely full of diet caffeine free soda. I tried a few and they tasted shockingly close to their normal counterparts. I don’t trust it, there has to be a cost I don’t realize I’m paying.

    But also, jesus christ at least sometimes drink some water. The whole family just hates water. They even have top notch H2O there, I’m jealous.

      Zero sugar sodas are 99% water.

      If I have a glass of water, I’ll drink it when I’m thirsty. If I have flavored water, I’ll consume more because it’s enjoyable and I stay better hydrated. I tend to use a LOT of ice, so really I’m drinking that water too.
