You're drinking Di-hydrogen Monoxide mixed with artificially created chemicals which mimic the sweetness of sugar. They're thousands of times stronger than sugar, so the amount they need to produce the same level of sweetness as actual sugar is so little that there is virtually no calories from their addition.

The sweetness actually is from a sugar. But humans lack the enzyme to process that specific sugar. Since its not processed, your body filters it out like other waste. The result is zero calories from the sugar.

I need to start drinking coffee but I’m so used to my caffeine coming from soda. It’s like a psychological addiction. Even if I have a coffee I’ll want a soda.

its the carbonation, home brew soda machines will break you of that, because they taste like shit. I did it accidentally, but now I'm off soda and hopelessly addicted to nicotine and coffee. Soda was bad for my teeth, but coffee and smokes was destroying my guts (and mind).

when you light a cigarette over a doobie... you know you've broken something.

I recommend Earl Grey Tea, it tastes better and while I dont think its great for teeth, I'm pretty sure the majority consensus is that it is healthier internally. I think, dont quote me, not a doctor. Coffee is a wicked mistress and you dont wanna get your noodle stuck in here. I thought it made me a grown up once upon a time, it totally did, now I'm dying just like the adults I knew in my youth (who are now all dead).

It occurs to me that notions and delusions such as the many we are taught, are extremely dangerous to our well-being..... and primarily commercial in nature.

I get headaches from coffee and cig withdrawal. Full on chemical withdrawal. It would be amazing if it wasnt so tragic. Its incredibly effective, I even know its happening and I summon willpower and I still bellyflop. No excuses, 100% my fault, just describing the fight. Also, yes... worse things have happened but I've danced a bit close to the flame for awhile so currently trying to get back to my preferred state of health. At first, that meant being more 'normie', enter coffee and donuts etc... the donuts didnt last long... but the coffee set roots and wont let go. Trying to be normie has fucked me over, so I went the other way, my most success at fighting addiction is eating (normally) instead of binging my poisons. This is because I will take the poison to avoid eating (smoke instead of eat, smoke when stomach growls, get coffee, back to work) . This routine, plus the lockdowns and minimal exercise (home gym), I think might have almost killed me, or at least made me very ill until I noticed and yanked the leash back.

One cannot look into the stores at large, and say "they sell it openly, its gotta be ok", that is not a safe assertion. The normies are wrong.

Same here but different vibe, weening off the caffeine pills, slow but sure. Withdrawal is literally like the flu

I had some withdrawals a couple months ago. I had been drinking daily for five years. So I started something else to get off the booze. Then I did that for 4 years. Then I quit. 5 miserable days of constant chills. Aching bones. Runny nose. I couldn’t sleep. Cause I couldn’t get comfortable. The only place was a hot shower. Then my head was fucked cause it was finally sober: you know that feeling of goosebumps: when a chill runs over you: imagine that, recurring every 30 seconds For days. I would be sweating and I still felt cold. God it was fucking miserable. Anyways I got back on the drugs. Atleast on the drugs I’m working out and eating healthy. I’ll have to quit another day again

"Coke Zero contains aspartame as a sweetener, which provides about four calories per gram, which is about the same as the caloric content of sugar. However, aspartame is vastly sweeter than sugar, so they can use much less aspartame to achieve the same flavor. A 12 oz. can of regular Coke contains 39 grams of sugar. An identical can of Coke Zero contains 59 milligrams of aspartame, nearly two orders of magnitude less. So, then, a 12 oz. serving of Coke Zero contains about a calorie, but due to food labeling laws, they’re allowed to round it down to zero."

Mmmmm ok. See that makes sense.

In addition to what others have offered about the artificial sweeteners, USDA food content and labeling rules allow any food or beverage that is less than 5 calories (kilocalories) to be labeled as 'zero" calories due to the variance of accuracy of measure. For instance, pickles are often labeled as 0 calories per serving even though a cucumber is definitely not zero calories. They play games with the serving size to reduce the calories they label as to give the false impression of being low calorie when really the serving size is really small. jews games with your food.

When I worked at a grocery store I asked myself: why the fuck do Jews have their own pickles

It's always good to question why the jews have anything of their own when there are lots of options on the market. This should tell everyone what is going on with our food and who is behind it all.
