I drink Coke or Mountain Dew (Pepsi Product) when I am going to have a soda, which is increasingly a rare occurrence.
Hell, when I was younger I used to drink a case of Mountain Dew a day, or more. These days, I rarely drink soda, opting instead for water. Not just for the health reasons (but that is a good part of it), but because I dislike the way most restaurants rip you off on soda sales, esp. at the drivethru.
Some resturants have begun charging more if you order your drink without ice or light on the ice, which I often do so that it doesn't water down and taste like shit. Other places have started charging for each glass. The stuff is so damn cheap, I bet no restaurant has even two cents in each large cup. And for this, they charge you $2 or more? Fuck that. Unless you go in there and drink 200 cups of soda, they are making a damn good profit on that sale, no need to fuck people over by charging by the cup or charging extra for no ice. Hell, no ice should earn you a discount, I am told it costs them more to make the ice in electric costs for the freezer than the soda costs.
