    What sucks about Diet Coke?

    I care about my health. I exercise regularly. I don't eat fast food, other than Chipotle and Potbelly, if those can be called fast food.

    I drink diet pop. Quite a bit of it.

    Of course as is typically the case on here, I never said anything remotely close to that.

    I would say that people with a little bit of knowledge from things they have read typically are ridiculously confident to an unwarranted degree about what they think they have learned. This thread, and Dick's posts in particular, has been a study in itself of the Dunning-Kruger effect.

    Everything.

    I'm honestly asking: What does "natural flavors" mean? I can't believe use of the word "flavors" sted "ingredients" is unintentional.

    If you really think pushing anything synthetic into your body is a good thing there's zero point to having this conversation. The caffiene alone results in dehydratiion. You're sounding like one of those 1950s cigarette commercials that say that eight out of 10 doctors recommend Camel cigarettes to the other brands.

    The derision with which you refer to Google speaks for itself.

    Most current and former journalists are more than capable of discerning what information is good and what is bad in most Internet searches. And how to find the most credible information.

    I would debate you under the table of your choosing on any topic.

    The double negative at the bottom is confusing me. Are Luckies pro-cough?

    I think it's just missing an "and". Protection against irritation and against cough. That's how I read it anyway. (THIS IS WHY YOU NEED EDITORS, LUCKY STRIKE!)
