Nope.

I suppose you're one of those folks who also can't taste the difference between regular and diet drinks? :p

I like Coke, Pepsi, Dr Pepper, Sprite, 7 Up, Orangina... I like a variety as drinking the same stuff gets boring. That said, I don't drink them that often as I want my teeth to last my whole life, preferably, and want to maintain a reasonably healthy diet.

Just don't give me any of that Diet Coke or Pepsi Max type shite. The diet varieties are a con in that they're generally less healthy aside from the fact that they taste like toilet cleaner.

In summary:

Sugar > sweeteners.

How much fizzy stuff do you drink to have to be worried about it being good for you or not?

3 cans is my limit and even then that's on particularly hot days. The rest of the time it's one can a day (talking about when it's warm out only, not all year round, I don't drink pop all year round).

Anything more than zero cans is bad for you, tbh.

I always found that Coke in the US is a billion times sweeter than the stuff they sell in the UK, while Pepsi there tastes like Coke here.

Possibly because they generally use high fructose corn syrup as a sweeter in the US.

I do love Dr Pepper. Kinda like Cherry Coke but nicer.

Wait, I'm getting dangerously close to agreeing with Melatonin on something. :shock:
