    A 2 liter bottle of soda costs pennies to produce and they sell it for three bucks. An 8 ounce glass of it in a restaurant will cost you three or four bucks. I haven’t purchased soda in about five years. It is the biggest ripoff and not even good for you.

      and not even good for you

      Dude, soda isn’t ‘not good’ for you. It’s fucking toxic. Corn sugar makes you fat and screws up your metabolism, added caffeine is addictive, and the rest is just an artificial chemical bath that rots you from the inside out.

      There was a lawsuit a while back, a dude sued claiming he found a dead mouse in his can of soda. Pepsi’s defense was that in the amount of time between when that particular can was bottled and when he drank it, the soda would have completely dissolved the mouse. They won the lawsuit.

      And that’s what you are drinking…
