Petit Prince Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 You'll survive it. I feel your pain though. I hate it when our uni shop runs out of Red Bull and you have to drink coffee instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noonsun Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 Drink water instead :P or even your own blood :rolleyes: Do you mods have a conspiracy to make all members of Coldplaying become self-harming imbeciles or someting? :inquisitive: Seems like this sort of advice has been given out a couple of times now... mumblemumbleconspiracymumble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Rose Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 It's not my fault all i can taste in the back of my mouth at the moment is my own blood from my dodgy nose :P I can remember at school, the drinks vending machine never had coca cola/Pepsi in due to the PTA moaning that they had too much sugar in.

Saffire Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 I hate it when people tell me to drink water when I crave the sugary, carbonated goodness of a Coke. Especially when they weigh more than me. Bart, if I could send you a Pepsi through the internet I'd do it! We don't have Coke at my house tonight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck kottke Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 :laugh3: Good one Jay! In all likelihood Bart, you can simulate Coca-cola. All you need is carbonated water, sugar, carmel coloring (overheated sugar), cola nut extract, and some secret ingredients. Oh, and add some caffeine (a smidgen; about a third of the amount in de-caffeinated coffee). One could probably add a small amount of coffee instead, and omit the cola nut, though I've never quite tried it that way.. or get some root beer extract, and try that.

ImLovingGuyBerryman Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 last year they took out all the soda machines from my school. :bigcry: we used to have all kinds of soda. now, none. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh42 Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 My school has all diet drinks. I don't have a problem; Diet Coke is where it's at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saffire Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 Only diet drinks? That's disgusting. I mean honestly, how many calories is a bottle of Coke? 150? 200? You'd need to drink ten of them just to get your daily caloric needs. Will taking the corn syrup out and replacing it with some chemical sweetener really make THAT much difference in students' waistlines? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chuck kottke Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 Corn syrup is bad for us. High fructose corn syrup is deadly!:P Better just to use normal cane or beet sugar, methinks is best. I think the bigger issue is the sugar-rush effect - too much, all at once causes whiplash for the pancreas's islet's of langerhans, and the insulin ups and downs, and the metabolic roller-coaster ride. Fine in moderation, or with a meal 1st, but corn syrup is probably the wrong sweetener for humans. Maybe corn syrup is ideal for corn borers, though..:laugh3: But juices have the right kinds of sugar, and not too high levels of them.. plus vitamins.;) Better still is to vend with fruit.

chuck kottke Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 Dr. Pepper used to be my fav.. Mr Pibb elsewhere, right? Propylene Glycol is the 'flavoring' I think.. But how about a munchy-crunchy apple:D?!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chuck kottke Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 Juice can give you a buzz; maybe not as big a buzz as super-sugary soda, but it's got some kick to it. Better buzz from getting the 'runner's high' methinks.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saffire Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 Chuck, you've given me a business idea... a fruit vendor! Fresh fruit salad for everyone, prepared on the spot. I think people would go through a drive-through window for that, just to be able to avoid McDonalds once in a while. Imagine seeing the signs from the road - the choice is clear which one will make you feel better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
