Why did they only make zero sugar Oreo Coke? :marseypepe2:

I was excited to try this especially since it even got the @pizzashill seal of approval. Unfortunately they only make it as a variant of Coke Zero. I can't stand aspartame :marseyyikes:

!sodadrinkers !goyslopenjoyers Why did they do this to us? :marseycry:

Also has anyone tried the cookies? :marseychonker2:

I can't stand aspartame

Asians will consume the fricking most ungodly levels of MSG/salt/various known carcinogens but turn their nose up to soyience's answer to sugar. @nuclearshill please ping nerds I want some facts :marseyshapiro: on this subject.

I don't care about the health aspects lol I just really don't like that taste.

Most alternative sugars are butt but I think I remember sucrose not being so bad. Aspartame is especially butt.

Many people find that aspartame has a metallic taste. Professionals who formulate flavors usually like to combine it with ace-K for a more well-rounded, sugar-like sweetness. Ace-K wasn't broadly approved in the U.S. for, like, decades. Before sucralose, this meant products that only used aspartame, resulting in a lot of disappointing experiences.

@RWBY you one of these metallic tasting types, b-word? I find it to be sweet with less aftertaste than sugar. @nuclearshill :marseywave2: thanks and I love you and this is fricking exactly the fricking type of :buckchecker: I hoped to generate. Thank you @syscoshill, too.

@Corinthian I don't know where Asians come from or why they love the flavor of dogs yet not Coke Zero, but I'll tell ya about the real problem with sugars and carbohydrates in general.

As you consume sugar (don't fall for the fructose scare meme) your body releases insulin to initiate a cascade of signals to digest it.

This is all well and good, you're a mammal, that's how things are supposed to work. But sugar is uncommon in nature. It's an energetically expensive chemical to make, but we have cultivated our fruits to r-slurred levels of sweetness. You might as well Skittles versus an apple these days.

At some point in the 70s people started to get fat. I blame the CIA for cocaine busts. However one can see that the ingredients in food products started to advertise "low fat!" while increasing sugar content to make up for flavor.

It turns out that Big Sugar promoted that fat makes you fat, so eat more sugar.

This is fricking stupid.

Not only does this contribute to insulin insensitivity -- Type 2 Beetus -- but your body can only store around 500 grams of sugar in your muscles and liver. All other sugar beyond that gets converted to fat.

Funny enough, your brain needs about 100 grams of sugar a day to not die, but it actually has an alternate fuel source -- ketones. Which is actually what brains normally consumed before we invented obesity.

!fitness witness

Bodybuilders have two diets. One to gain a lot of weight really fast, and one to lose a lot of weight really fast.

Simply put, they eat mostly carbs to gain 50 pounds in the off-season, and don't eat carbs to lose the weight and hopefully gain a pound of muscle before they have to go on stage.

TLDR don't eat carbs. Drink dirt soda. It's not a fad. It's just normal. Also don't be Asian.

I always find it curious when people make comments like this. Because whenever I mention Lebanon it's always "them" not "us", not even as a joke.
