I’ve realised that I’m a little too fond of fizzy drinks. It’s not a severe addiction to the point of downing gallons, but I am drinking a 330ml can of Pepsi Max almost every day. Sometimes a little more.
Swap to a 0 calorie version and just keep enjoying it? Fizzy drinks are a pretty harmless vice in the grand scheme of things. Hollow calories, so if you can replace it with a 0 calorie version, it would at least stop affecting your weight.
I know everyone is against artificial sweeteners. They won’t kill you faster than microplastics, pollution, break pad dust, war, alcohol, smoking,…
Enjoy life! Enjoy a fizzy drink! I thoroughly enjoy my daily coke zero can.
The comments here are fucking wild.
Outside of the caffeine, there’s nothing inherently special about a fizzy drink habit that would make it remarkable from other habits when it comes to giving it up. So a guide like https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/how-to-break-a-bad-habit-202205022736 could be useful.
that’s rather untrue. sugar is actually very addictive, and the quantity in soft drinks (they have additives that make them actually palatable - without they’d be so sweet you couldn’t drink much) makes them particularly problematic
OP said they’re drinking, Pepsi Max which has no sugar.
Wait. You can talk??
Talk? No. Type? Yes. (written from my Lappy 486)
Drink fizzy water instead.
🤮
Whenever I see this “opinion” I think of how out of whack the person’s taste buds must be. Fizzy waters are great, they just don’t have sugar.
Not everyone likes the taste of quinine it’s super bitter bro
Tonic water has quinine. Seltzer doesn’t.
And we’re talking about fizzy water which could mean either
tonic water is further from water than vitamin water is. fizzy water means exactly 1 thing: carbonated, plain water

BDS puts most of the big brand junkfood on the boycott list. Join the club.
What is BDS?
The Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement, a Palestinian-led boycott of a small number of companies that are particularly heavily involved in Israeli apartheid and colonialism of Palestinians.
This feels like a trick… BDSM?
…no, BDS. There’s no M.
