What do you prefer - sugary soda or diet soda? What age in life did you reason you enjoyed it that way?
I rarely drink soda anymore. I lost the taste for it and know it's bad for me. Maybe one or two cans per month, but I drank a bit more when I was younger. I've mostly chosen diet sodas since maybe 14 years old. When drinking regular, I feel like I'm drinking a whole sugar bowl. I only really drink regular when my stomach is upset or on the rare occasion I want something that isn't always available (everywhere) in diet form. It's nice that diet sodas are getting tastier than they used to be. Coke Zero is much better than Diet Coke, as an example. I do love many sugary things, but prefer them in pastry or cookie form.

What habit or food have you given up (or limited) over the years?
