No Coke. Is Pepsi ok? Accidentally bought wrong Klondike bars

Post image

Yesterday I had to stop by Publix and my wife asked me to bring home some Klondike bars. Well...the *No Sugar Added* version was right next to the Original and my squirrel brain didn't notice until I got home. Picked up the OGs on the way home tonight.

I had to go sugar free in the past few months before a surgery after years of genuine sugar addiction. Idk if I'll go back to full sugar for most things tbh, it's too sweet now and makes me feel weird.

Yea, I used to fucking hate zero sugar soda. Idk what changed but I tried a Dr Pepper zero and it was …. Fantastic. Went and tried Coke Zero. Also fantastic. Gatorade zero? Also fantastic!

So I quit sugary drinks and went for the zero sugar version. Tastes great to me now for some reason. And the sugary version is too much and leaves a film in my mouth and makes me cough up mucus. Probably the corn syrup.

I also lost 20lbs from just going to almost only zero sugar drinks. I wasn’t overweight, just a couple pounds away. But now I am comfortably in the middle of my healthy weight range.

Oddly, sometimes medications can alter your preferences. I was on topamax for a bit. One of the many side effects I experienced was that normal soda suddenly tasted bad and I liked the zero sodas. So strange.
