Last night I bought a 12 pack of Diet Coke with Lime on sale. As I was stashing the cans in the fridge, I noticed a statement on the box. It claims:
Refreshing. Uplifting. Hydrating?
It's true. Research shows that all beverafes contribute to proper hydration. That means whether it's your first can of the day or your afternoon pick-me-up, Diet Coke helps you stay hydrated all day long. So stick wtih the Diet Coke taste you love. Your body will thank you for it.
We offer over 80 ways to hydrate, energize, nourish, relax or enjoy every drop of life. For more information on the benefits of hydration, go to: hydration.thecoca-colacompany.com
(I did go to the website and it came up "Page Unknown.")
Now... this puts me in one of those pickles that I hate. On one hand, I want to dance with glee that finally there is a health benefit to my favorite vice. However, to believe that Diet Coke is not just not bad for me, but good for me??? I would have to live on Mars to buy into that. Just like the guy who told me that cigarette butts are good for the environment...
Or maybe, just maybe, it is good for me. Just like having a big butt will help protect me against diabetes.
Either way, it sure paired well with my Chicken Tortilla Soup with lime and cilantro this afternoon!

ok, so being the nut I am about food and things of that nature I'm not even going to touch this one! ;) I'll just let you go on enjoying your soda in ignorant bliss while I eat dark chocolate and believe it is going to give me enough antioxidants to fight off this cold I keep trying to get. ;) See how politically correct I am!
