| Favorite: Root Beer and Cream Soda
Dislike: any Grape Soda
Oh have any of you guys tried mixing sodas? Some(most) of the combinations and pretty nasty BUT
Cream Soda mixes well with just about anything such as
Cream Soda + Orange = An Orange Dreamsicle
(Its REALLY good stuff) (even though soda is REALLY bad for you...:(

| I've lately been into the old, early 1900's sodas such as cherry phosphates. If they're prepared using authentic recipes and not just flavored syrups and carbonated water, then they actually aren't that bad for you.

| Don't really see what's wrong with carbonated water... we are carbon based life-forms after all, therefore one must conclude that carbonated water is beneficial to one's health and well-being. umad?
now on a more serious matter, I like lots of soft drinks, so the one's I favour would usually be my favourite non-carbonated drink in "fizzy-form"
I like OJ (<-- only American Abbr. I like) and therefore I also love Fanta. Coke and Pepsi are awesome too. the one thing I have never tried but want to, now that I know it's in Australia, is Dr. Pepper!
EDIT: @DM, on your post about cream soda where you said I'd never heard of wikipedia and provided a link for it: had you read further down the page you would have read that in Australia it is generally called creaming soda and comes in the colours pink, red or brown, as well as a less common yellow variation.

| I don't think it's the carbonated water that's bad for you, but the sugars put into the sodas. |

Or the chemicals they replace sugar with. |

| Yeah, I avoid the sodas that don't use real sugar. That fake stuff is just plain bad for you. |

In diet soda yeah, but sodas that use high fructose corn syrup aren't really any worse unless you drink a ton of it.

| You see, I don't get that. Why do people say that one type of sugar is worse than another? They are both bad for you. High fructose corn syrup is fructose, a monosaccharide, whereas conventional sugar is a mix of monosaccharides, disaccharides, and oligosaccharides. One of the monosaccharides in sugar is fructose. Yes sugar has disaccharides and oligosaccharides which one could argue take longer to metabolize and aren't as bad for you, but in the long run, they are all just as bad as each other. One interesting thing is that sugar (and fructose) could actually be considered a poison as proven by a legitimate researcher in Sugar: The Bitter Truth. His research and conclusion are completely supported by biochemistry. So avoiding one poison to take another is just useless. If you are going to kill yourself, do it with the one that tastes the best.
Sorry for my geek rant, it is now over.

| You have to define "sugar" to truly classify it and state its rate of metabolism. Technically, fructose is just fruit sugar (a subset of sugar) as the name suggests. It also depends on how you take in the sugar and with what. |
