1. Irrigating all of those SUBSIDIZED corn-sugar fields & the diabetes industry.
I TRY not to, but I continue to marvel at what I see filling about half of some grocery carts every time I go to the grocery store.

3. I feel really guilty. I drank Coca-Cola for years
Even when I was in the field with the Army I'd carry a couple of cans of Coca-Cola with me. I felt much more cheerful knowing that I had a can of cola waiting for me each morning, even if it was hot cola.

I feel really guilty. At the time I just liked drinking the soda and I didn't know what harm it has done around the world. I don't drink it any more mostly because my body doesn't need the empty calories but I do feel guilty that I drank it for years, from childhood on.

6. LOVED it when I was younger! Used to go barefoot up to the corner drugstore on really hot
summer days and get a bottle for a dime, sooooooooooooooo icy!!! cold and fizzy!! It. was. awesome!

It's very different now. Haven't done much more than just taste it for several decades.

5. it stopped being about
the cocaine and kola and became all about the sugar and syrup -- but they got the habit forming part down right.

7. Dumb. The "piss" should really be oil and war
but very few of us could share "I used to..." stories about that still we're still addicted...
