The Economy

Not everyone is gouging.

As inflation soars, how is AriZona iced tea still 99 cents?

 

Because it's disgusting and they should be paying YOU to drink it?

 

That's how the HFCS pimps hook you. They get you addicted to the sweet, then they force you to spread your legs at their beck and call. (Or maybe bend over, NTTAWWT.)

 

I was on a major unsweetened iced tea kick a few years ago, trying to wean myself off diet pop. I almost always went Snapple or the like, but the two for a buck Arizona iced teas got me once or twice. I can’t imagine what chemicals are in that stuff.

 

What's the matter with you guys?

YOU WANNA LIVE FOREVER?!

 

I drink nothing but water, unsweetened tea and an occasional orange juice. Gave up pop a decade ago; have never liked any alcohol I've ever tried.

Fountain tea and that bottled crap is awful. I'd drink motor oil before that crap.

 

I do not want to admit the amount of aspartame and caffeine I ingest while working third shift.

 

That was me. For five and a half (miserable) years. No, you never get used to it.

 

Sucralose is where it's at.

 

I worked graveyard shift for a long time and drank ungodly amounts of coffee. My colleague lived off Diet Coke.
