Coke/Pepsi vs. Sprite

you can debate it all you want - but imo, if you knowingly put sh!t in your body, you're a dumbass -

and if you're dealing with something as life altering as UC, and still making stupid choices, well then buddy, you're a REALLY BIG DUMBASS !

Most of us are sinners and need the guidance of the perfect and the almighty to lead us to the promised land. We need the unquestioning faith to follow them as we know not what we do. Please forgive us oh Lord for our sins and give us the strength to make this journey. Amen.

Coke/ Pepsi/ Sprite have never been shown to cause death, lol.

Sorry to the OP that this thread has gone so far off topic but of course there are those who always have to jump into every thread to tell posters how stupid they are. Maybe it gives them validation they are lacking in real life, to self-validate here how they are so much smarter than everyone else. (Also weird how some post so frequently here, even though they claim to have had no UC symptoms for years? My wish for all of us is that we have more fun things to do in our lives, when we are feeling well and asymptomatic, than spending hours every day in front of an internet-connected device reading & posting about UC!)

For me, over the years I seem to have become intolerant of all things carbonated, so Coke/ Pepsi/ Sprite would give me bad reflux which always is tied to flaring for me. I still will have an occasional diet coke fountain drink. They seem to be more gut-friendly to me than bottled ones.

if you have some "fun" ideas for me to try out @ 3:00 a.m while i'm taking care of my severely disabled son, please share -

if you think that doing well is a reason to not be on this forum, you have a lot of folks to convince - if you think all of my posts are critical in their content, then you are choosing to ignore the other 90 percent of my posts on this forum -

and if you think being critical of me is a positive thing and shows your character greatness, then please continue -

i still stand by my position - making a decision to put a toxic substance in a sick body is stupid -

Let's get back on topic to the OP's initial question or this thread gets locked. I don't want this turning into a contest of who is dumb or dumber.

This topic should have been locked a while ago based on some of the comments. All it is doing is inciting more rage.

Pop/Soda, like energy drinks are very addicting, but yes people are free to buy & drink them. But I just don't get the attraction, even on a hot summer day, pop just makes you more thirsty and you get a big comedown when the sugar wears off. When I see people buying 12 packs of this crap, it just makes me think they are stupid and usually grossly overweight. This being a health forum, it just seems like most of you would know better. Just look at the ingredients and look at the fat asses of the people who drink this stuff every day. Enough said...

I know this used to be a health forum. Some days now it looks more like a scolding forum. Really, the food police run amok here. If I gave up everything someone here told me was bad for me, I'd have starved to death years ago. Maybe more support and less judgement would be an improvement?
