Jen500 Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 :confused: Oh.....well, they are all junk foods I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NicksMama-Zack's Mama Too Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 I always buy Coke Zero or diet soda....even with fattening foods like pizza. I like fat; I hate sugary soda syrup. ;-P K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like fat; I hate sugary soda syrup. ;-P K I do like Coke Zero myself. (it is my only vice.) But I do typically buy more stuff at the grocery than diet soda and junk food. That is what amused me so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SailorMom Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Yes - my DH prefers the Splenda Diet Coke now, says the regular stuff is too syrupy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UnsinkableKristen Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 I always buy Diet Dr Pepper. It has nothing to do with it being "diet" and everything to do with taste - I just like how it tastes better than regular DP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngelaNYC Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Well it's a known fact that the Coke Zero, having no calories, cancels out the calories in the other foods. See? Simple math. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renthead Mommy Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 In high school I waited tables at an ice cream place. We made the ice cream there, and it was rich and creamy, really good. Also home made fresh whip cream. I had more than one person order a sundae, with whip, and then tell me "Make sure it's diet coke, I'm on a diet." Um, yeah, sure. Me: "Okay. Do you still want whip cream (like 3/4 a cup worth at least!) on your sundae?" Them: "Of course!" and look at me crazy for asking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amo_mea_filiis. Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 I personally hate the taste of regular sodas. I only drink caffine free diet coke. So that means I'll get a big fat meal at wendy's (usually a baconator of sorts) and eat at home with my caffine free diet coke. I can't imagine how that would look while eating out, not that I truly care. (We only eat out [anything] once per month, and I wouldn't dare eat in somewhere with my ds!)

PiCO Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 the person in the grocery store line buying boxes of Little Debbies, the 1 lb Hersey's bar, Funyuns, and several bottles of Coke Zero. I love to look for irony and humor in shopping carts- mine and other people's. Helps pass time waiting in line. Last week, I ran out to the grocery store to get ingredients to make treats for a pot luck, and picked up some necessities while there. In my cart were: Brownie fixin's (Chocolate, Sugar, etc.) Female hygeine products, and lots of both! (I was glad I was in the self check-out line.)

ChristusG Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 DH will drink a Diet Coke over a Coke because he prefers the taste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TravelingChris Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Well I never buy diet sodas and very, very rarely buy sodas at all. But I may be buying Little Debbie Cakes or things like that and they aren't for me. They are either a snack I am bringing for something or maybe as a snack for my dd who is 5'4, 110 lbs, and does two hours of sport practice and needs quick energy.

Mejane Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 (edited) Well it's a known fact that the Coke Zero, having no calories, cancels out the calories in the other foods. See? Simple math. Also, if you eat standing at the counter instead of sitting in a chair, it goes to your feet instead of your... well, you know. ;) Edited May 18, 2011 by Mejane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vonfirmath Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 LOL! I used to work with women who would have a GIANT Snickers bar.... and a diet coke. Sure why not? Perhaps they prefer the taste of the diet (that's me)> I don't drink diet because I am dieting. I actually prefer the taste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
