You know what? I like Diet Dr Pepper.
In face, most of the time when I'm drinking pop/soda, I drink diet.
Otherwise the calorie cost/thirst quenching ration is too high  |

I never changed saying pop though----it IS pop!!! I also got teased because I said dinner instead of supper. You think they could find something worse to tease me with. Kids are so cruel.....
It's funny though, because I only have to be back in Minnesota for 5 seconds and my accent is right back. |
And we call it hotdish instead of casserole. Living just a few miles out of MN and I've had to get used to that one.

but the flavor part of the ratio goes way down. |

Sometimes... but the taste is mostly just different, not bad... at least for me  |

Indeed, I've mostly switched to diet. At first it tasted bad but it wasn't long before I got used to it or whatever, and I like it... almost as well as regular pop.

Eww. That stuff is just awful. My reasoning is as followed: If I'm going to have a pop, it is going to taste good, and be entirely bad for me. Not just half bad for me. In a hurry last night while at the store, I picked up a Diet Coke -- with Lime. It was supposed to be a Sprite -- not Coke -- not diet. I was horrified to realize it was diet. Those things taste bad no matter what.  |

It's like looking down at your body and shouting DIE! DIE! Get fat!

Heh. I don't need to shout that. ;)
I also don't drink pop that often. When I do, I'd prefer it be a whole pop, not half healthy.  |

| Admittedly, I don't drink it much either. I drink a lot of what I like to call "water". |
