    Drinking water gives me acid reflux, always has. Which is weird because fanta is a lot more acidic and doesn’t do that.

      Does it burn? If I drink cold water, I tend to get esophageal spasms. My heart to my jaw gets this tension and pain, but it doesn’t burn. It tends to be worse with normal sipping amounts rather than chugging like a hamster. It can happen with beer but for whatever reason, soda never causes it for me. Probably something about the drink rate or usually having soda at room temp. Not trying to tell you how your body works, just offering up info no one I know knows about.

        Yes it burns at the plexus and throat. I find it less so when I filter the (bottled) water in a brita filter (cartridged filters) but then it tastes funny. So I actually never drink water.

        What is even weirder if I drink those water bottle with a slight hint of flavor, no reflux. Might be a mental problem?

        I don’t experience what you have.

    I don’t disagree that water is king. But putting coke and pepsi in the same tier must be some kind of crime.

          O Holy One, Pepsiman, who blesses our teeth with holes shaped in your great symbol’s image.

          Grant us the strength to drive these CokeCrusaders from our lands, led by the dastardly KredeSeraf.

          May our rivers once again flow ripe with the chemical by-products of your majestic factories.

          Dulcis. Immutabilis. Pepsi.
