A nice cold Coke is as good as a nice cold beer.

Outside of that I absolutely LOVE sparkling water. Drink it like mad.

Spindrift. It’s got more flavor than normal
Carbonated water and has very little sugar. Very seldom do I ever drink soda now. Costco carries it.

Vernors is outstanding, especially with Wild Turkey 101.

I have switched to water, unless I am on vacation.

Coke on a hot day after some intensive exercise which leaves me thirsty. Goes well with fries.

Tho it feels kinda good, I limit this to 4-5x a year.

Aha.

Must be a different ice maker being used. At the Mickey D´s , I go to, they use ice cubes.

The reason why fountain probably tastes better is due to the immediate carbonation versus syrup mix being conducted on site.

Many say that it will kill me, but since I don't drink alcohol or coffee, eat fatty foods, gorge on sweets, smoke, gamble, or do illicit drugs, I figure I deserve one vice.

Besides, I'm finally too old to die young.

Grady , I totally agree. We gotta be able to enjoy some of the vices this world has to offer.


Mine include:

1. "small glass bottled" ice cold coca-cola with peanuts. YUM.


2. Fresh bag of boiled peanuts with a "small glass bottled" ice cold coca-cola. YUM.


3. I get these 5" tall glass bottled coca colas - like the old vending machines used to dispatch. YUM.
