Diet Goodness..

After many long struggles trying to stop drinking Diet Soda, or all soda in general, i just cant stick with it. I "stop" at least once a week. Im never motivated enough to actually do it. i have stopped for months at a time before but i find it extremely hard now to stop it. And it also doesnt help when the Bashas offeres a deal where you buy 4 12 packs of any Coke product, you get anotherone free, along with a free bag of ice and a bag of tortilla chips ALL FOR 11 DOLLARS. Since Beka isnt allowed to go shopping without me cause...lets just say our bank account usually cant handle it. And after having to live off $130 a month for 2 years, i know how to find the bargains.

I was thinking about the best soda flavors that were my favorites. Some are no longer around and some are.

*Diet Code Red Mountain Dew (a rare find but this helped me get through my Junior and Senior of high school)



*Diet Dr. Pepper (definately a staple in the Lowe family)



*Diet Pepsi Twist (a staple throughout high school)



*Diet Coke with Lime ( one of my current favorites)



*Jones' Sugar Free Ginger Ale (totally bomb! if you havent had it, try it, its excellent)



*Diet Bawls (the ONLY "energy" drink/soda i will drink)



*Crystal Pepsi (i freaking loved this when i was a kid. All you haters can go fly a kite!)




Josta! - i had a friend in 5th grade whos dad worked for Pepsi and would always bring me josta at school, and i would always get it at Circle K. I havent talked to anyone who remember this one, but it was SOOOO good. If you remeber this one let me know.


Pepsi Blue (when i felt like a sugary regular soda i liked this one cause it tasted like a melted Blue slurpee)



and last but not least,

Monterey Bay Root Beer. I cant find a picture of it, but its made in Monterey, California. Its a light root beer sweetened with honey instead of corn syrup. Way better for you but with a sweet honet taste. I love it but Beka hates it.
