For the record, I hate coffee.

OK, I'm annoyed. On the recommendation of one of my health care providers, I switched away from sodas with HFCS tp those sweetened with sugar. After some experimentation, we found two that I really liked. Mt. Dew Throwback and Coke Life.

Throwback has been rebranded and I haven't seen the new version on the shelves yet. As for Coke Life? I went out today because I was flat out of drinks. I couldn't find a 12-pack anywhere. I ended up buying a flat of Mexican Coke.

I also drink Mt. Dew Game Fuel, but that's my "morning coffee" and since we need to get it from Amazon, I need to ration it. I'm addicted to caffeine, I freely admit that. Compared to my previous addictions, this one is at least legal and won't leave me dead in an alley.

But damnit, I would be happier if I could get my drinks without having to drive all over the county!

Yah, but MexiCoke is good.  That's the CocaCola we grew up with, "Coke Classic" be damned.
