>how is it sweet if it has no sugar
Turns how, shock horror, some things that don't have calories have a taste
Like literally everything that doesn't have calories
And some of those things are sweet
substance so sweet that such a miniscule amount is needed to make your brain happy, that it carries no (measurable) caloric energy
fwiw calories are rounded up, so technically it could have half a calorie
this is also how "dr pepper 10" is a thing, a different sweetener that has 10 calories instead
>do marketers want me to believe it will go through my guts with no interaction with my system whatsoever
If you ate a (sterilized) penny do you think it'd have any noticeable effect on your gut before coming out?
I see more fatties downing 5 big macs with diet coke than people on their way to fitness. I see lots of fit people getting regular coke. Conclusion: in the mind of a fatty, getting a diet coke is like buying a pardon from the church. They use it as an excuse to eat even worse
if by solve you mean slowly sending millions of fatties to an early grave without them noticing all under the watch and executive order of the fda, then yes
What's the cheapest way to get these or really any diet cola?
Anything beats Costco at like a bit over $.50 per can? I'll get 10 gallons worth bulk type shit, just trying to get my diet cokes cheap, yknow
I can't imagine anything as pathetic as watching a grown human being drinking sodey-pop like a child >yes, and along with my $70 medium-rare steak, I'd like to totally fricking holocaust my taste buds with a Coke Zero
buying coke, zero or not, is only acceptable if you're going to dump it in your slow cooker with OJ and shallots to make pork carnitas
maybe at the base of my soul, I'm a roastie, because if I see an adult male drinking soda, I assume by default that they have funko pops waiting for them at home
it's POSSIBLY acceptable if you wake up hungover to go get a refreshing sprite or gatorade
wrong direction
I'm actually a schizo who only watches torrented or web scraped content on their htpc and exists on a diet of meat, nicotine, and coffee
>grown human drinking sodey-pop
you can't think of ANYTHING more pathetic? open your eyes, you're on IST
valid
but soda drinkers fall into the same group as the following: >people with nintendo-themed objects >anyone who visits disney world after age 16 who also doesn't have kids >marvel fans
basically anyone who does that "now that I'm an adult, I can do all of the cringe shit I want because I'm an adult and people can't tell me what to do!"
Marketing gimmick. A regular cola has about 100 calories (330ml).
>but le sugar le bad
Do you really think le artificial sweeteners are le better? Probably they cause cancer, I'd rather drink a real coke. You won't get fat with 100 calories if you eat clean otherwise. But you don't.
yes artificial sweeteners do almost nothing to the body
any studies about aspartame have greatly exaggerated claims and conclusions
aspartame is mostly inert and is removed by your body without much more
Yeah, because seventy grams of sugar isn't putting my pancreas in a wheelchair. And no, I don't support artificial sweeteners either. I drink water, milk and black coffee. If I want something sweet I just reach for orange juice.
that shit makes me crave real suger, and I end up consuming more sugar than if I had just drank a regular coke. That's why everyone that drinks that shit is fat as frick.
Funny, because I hate sugary drinks but regularly consume sugarfree
Sugary drinks just taste thick and sticky and disgusting, don't quench my thirst at all
I think you're just a disgusting lardlad trying to justify his addiction to sugar
Now I'm not a scientist or anything but isn't that too good to be true? Because I tried Pepsi Max on holiday and I don't know what kind of devilish forces are in play here but it tasted almost better than the real deal. I know a thing or two about chemistry and allegedly some sweeteners are worse than others and EU has stricter regulation around all that, but still... Drinking these manmade horrors can't be good for you in the long run, right?
it activates receptors on your tongue which signal to your gut to prepare for food that's coming, no one really knows what happens after that when your gut prepares but doesn't actually get food
but hey, if you feed a bunch of it to mice it doesn't kill them and that's good enough for FDA approval
>the sweet taste will produce insulin and then glucose spike in the blood >the frickup of body expecting easy carbs and then not getting it will create inflamation and damage to spleen >increased inflamation to gut due to not being able to absorb it >destroys gut microbiome and therefore your brain
It's like you guys want to love Satan and invert beauty of the mundane and regular. Why not enjoy a freshly juiced orange juice? Just buy 2 kilos of oranges
>insulin spike that lasts a few minutes and does nothing to the body
there is no such thing as "expecting more carbs", that's something you made up
the increase in inflammation is so minuscule it's like eating cellulose without the vegetable attached to it
the destruction of gut microbiome is so negligible that eating a foreign food would cause more damage than drinking diet soda
You whole wall of text boils down to "nu-huh"
Go read some scientific studies on the matter and then talk to me zoom zoom, also I won't spoonfeed you like a baby you are, just learn to educate yourself to protect your body, or don't I don't give a shit about your health
yes I'm calling you out for your unquantifiable statements and your extrapolations thereon
and yeah the fact you can't find a scientific paper that extrapolates a conclusion like "body expecting more carbs causes significant enough inflammation to cause problems" tells me all I need to know
This thread just confirms to me IST is the board with the highest concentrations of fatties. It actually makes sense when you think about it, but now I know everytime I argue with someone here it's a lard.
how is it sweet if it has no sugar
>not ozempic
k.
fake sweeteners.
it will definitely have an impact on your system.

Did you know salt has no calories
How is it salty if it has no calories?
Through the power of the druids
and what does it mean it has no calories, do marketers want me to believe it will go through my guts with no interaction with my system whatsoever
>do marketers want me to believe it will go through my guts with no interaction with my system whatsoever

fat people have been drinking diet coke for decades moron
and many people lost weight because of it
I see more fatties downing 5 big macs with diet coke than people on their way to fitness. I see lots of fit people getting regular coke. Conclusion: in the mind of a fatty, getting a diet coke is like buying a pardon from the church. They use it as an excuse to eat even worse

saved my ass. lost 80lbs or so just by not drinking cokes.
>ny smag
since when did they update the taste? coke zero tastes like water with a hint of cola, pepsi max completely mogs it
What's the cheapest way to get these or really any diet cola?
Anything beats Costco at like a bit over $.50 per can? I'll get 10 gallons worth bulk type shit, just trying to get my diet cokes cheap, yknow
Check your local flyers for sales. I pay 52 Canadian cents per can, which is like 38 in US money.
Buy a soda stream and get the Diet Pepsi flavour
I can't imagine anything as pathetic as watching a grown human being drinking sodey-pop like a child

You probably work an office job and relax by watching the news at 8pm. Boring ass niggga

>I-it has z-zero calories
Imagine your only metric of health is calories, absolute Reddit tier moron take
>thinking you can cheat god
good luck with that, I'm sure it will work flawlessly
>god is whatever I determine to be the sufficient amount of suffering
I cheated god by not contracting tuberculosis
Typical low IQ israeli answer

See
No, you're just dumb.
Why does everything with flavor need to contain calories in your bird brain?
it activates receptors on your tongue which signal to your gut to prepare for food that's coming, no one really knows what happens after that when your gut prepares but doesn't actually get food
but hey, if you feed a bunch of it to mice it doesn't kill them and that's good enough for FDA approval
The only people I know that drink any type of soda are fat. That includes diet soda. Learn to drink water and stop being a man child.
I love coke but it makes me piss every 20 minutes

Most diabetics can drink multiple cans in a day without effecting them.
why can't scientists just make food that doesn't have calories?
