Pepsi or Coke [plain and simple]

Well, certain tests in my country (products tested: Pepsi, coke, Mirinda, Fanta, 7up, Mountain Dew etc.) said that these products contained some substances which are usually used in the making of pesticides. This set up Pepsi and Coca-Cola to put up public campaigns etc.

However, it was interesting to note that when the same test was done at a different lab the results were positive for both companies. Possible bribery might be involved...

Personally I drink Milk and Tea and its nice enough for me...Sometimes I drink Mirinda or the Vanilla Coke.

My brother is addicted to Pepsi and Mirinda and the normal Coke.

Just my 2 cents.

You're Right Marja ... Salt is another Killer ... The only way to really avoid it ... is to avoid everything pre-packaged/pre-made - it's the super preservative ... Boxed, Canned, and Frozen too ... You'll have a laugh if you read the mg of Salt in say for example Canned Mushrooms ... or better yet Check any can of Soup (on average they ave. about 2000mg - So Sodium Reduced Broth {25% less by definition} still has 1500mg of Salt ~Slightly too Much~ (It's the sole reason why one should consume Soup when their ill with a cold or flu ... cause the high salt content is need in this condition to remain hydrated). But I regress ...

We don't eat anything pre-made/pre-packaged ... It's all made from scratch with love, care and a little thought & effort. We consumed less than 1000mg a day ... and no more than 200mg in any sitting ... eating 4-5 times a day. And it's not that we're that @n@l, and measure everything out, it's just from knowledge gained/researched over the years, you get to the point where the account becomes second nature.

Marja & Nat - It's nice to see/meet/know others that are concerned with the same things.

 

Very true that Wilders is veerry good for our health. Laughing is the best medicine

But...ehm...I think someone still owes some dry cleaning fees...........

~sipping green tea as I type ~ ............

 

I like learning about nutrition, vitamins, herbs anything to make life more pleasant while here, laughing is the BEST tho!

Always ready to learn new ways to laugh, I was pretty bummed when I found out tickling yourself just doesn't make you laugh though, so I come to Wilders'!! MUCH Better!!!!

 

I use to drink a little coke when I Was younger but then I started drinking pepsi and I though pepsi was a lot nicer. Now that I drink pepsi, if I try and drink coke it tastes horrible.

This thread reminds me of a program I watched to do with Coke and Pepsi in the United States, the majority believed that Coke was better than Pepsi, but some people did a tast test without telling them which was which and asked their opinion. Pepsi won almost every time.

Neither! I'm a waterboy! Also, I drink cordial.

Davo.

By the way, I used to drink coke, however it caused me some health problems, so I decided not to drink it anymore. But if I had to choose, I would say Pepsi MAX.

 

I like water too.......................oh! and I love Beer!

 

Neither.

Brand names?? Sorry, all those millions of dollars in ads are wasted on me -- I generally get whatever's cheapest, usually house-brand or no-name. And usually (around here, anyway) no-name is from Coke or Pepsi, just doesn't have the advertising expenses or the fancy logos.

And since both side-subjects popped up here somewhere along the line, I'll plead guilty to being totally (and quite cheerfully) addicted to coffee and smokes.

 

Sprite
A&W Rootbeer
Water
and good old
Milk
Unless someone's buy'in,
heck I'll take anything!!
