I don't recall those scenes, but I do know Tequila can make you mean as the dickens, for want of a better word. :heeheehee

Re: News about the dangers of drinking diet soda
 
I try to avoid diet pop, but I'll have an occasional Diet Pepsi or Diet Mt. Dew. Like someone else said (MissBrattified, I think), it's the fizz I enjoy. I avoid sugar and carbs (to keep my triglycerides low), and eat high saturated fat (to keep my HDL high) + moderate protein; so I figure an occasional diet pop won't hurt TOO much. I also avoid artificial sweeteners, opting instead for Stevia and/or Erythritol.

Has anyone tried the Stevia-sweetened pop (Zevia brand) from Whole Foods? I really like the strawberry flavor. It's expensive though, so I don't buy it often.

Okay, what in the world is "pop"?

LOL - - it's a northern thang. I was introduced to it when we lived in Ohio - I think I'd giggle every time I heard it.

I know what it is, I just like to rib people about it.

I am keeping my grandaughter Friday through Sunday. I don't know what to feed her. At least I know Tequila and diet Coke is off the table. I better go find some ideas. Bananas.....and..... :heeheehee

I remembered the name of the movie, I just don't remember that scene. If they are acting nice after getting drunk on Tequila, I'd say it's not a true depiction of what Tequila does to you. Or maybe I'm just naturally mean anyway. :heeheehee

Soda for the most part.

Of course, most people in the deep south call it all Coke - -what kind of Coke would you like?
