Honestly I can't stand the taste of artificial sweeteners. My stepmom used to try and slip me diet soda or artificially sweetened tea or sugar free cookies and candy and crap and try and tell me it was normal but I could always taste the difference. She aparently can't. I don't get it.
Honestly the thing that makes me so anti diet/sugar free anything is probably the marketing around them. All that stuff is marketed asif it'll help you lose weight. Then you get people my my step mom that'll order a 44oz diet soda, with 2 bigmacs a double cheeseburger a super sized fry and a desert and eat it all in one sitting.. And then would complain that she's fat...Where's the logic there? And she's not the only one either, when I was a kid I worked at a fast food resturant and a good 80% of the people that ordered a diet soda would eat that way. I hate people like that.. I really do.. because I see that crap then I see my poor sister. She's 17 .. 6ft tall and she just hit 300lbs
and she's been eating right, exercising every chance she gets, is always active and does anything she can think of to try and lose weight and just keeps getting heavier. It's not right
