REALLY???: This is perhaps the most absurd question I have gotten here. Soft drinks are arguably the worst thing you can eat & right up there with smoking for least healthy thing you can do. Not only are they loaded with sugar, it is the esp. Bad high fructose corn syrup. But diet sodas are just as bad for you! see http://www.Huffingtonpost.Com/2012/03/14/soda-and-heart-attacks_n_1343163.Html#slide=779339.
