Random Thought While In the Midst of Washing Dishes

Diet RC is really good. Yes, I've converted to diet soda. I realized in my quest to cut carbs (no, I'm not one of those crazy Atkins people) that regular soda has a lot of sugar. But unfortunately I absolutely hated the taste of Nutrasweet, which all of the major diets use (Coke, Pepsi, etc.). But not good old Royal Crown. They use that new-fangled Splenda, the brand name for sucralose. Splenda is really good and doesn't leave that yucky aftertaste in my mouth. But it does make me pee a lot, a side effect I've learned to deal with. Now I've gotten to the point where regular soda tastes too damn sugary too me and I detest the way my mouth and specifically my teeth feel after drinking it. So, even when a Diet RC isn't readily available, I'll settle for a Diet Coke or Pepsi. Yeah, I still hate Nutrasweet, but it's better than all that sugar.
