sugar, (fake) sugar

Today I was in the soft drink aisle at my local grocery store contemplating my life (naturally).

I thought about what flavor of soda I wanted (diet cherry 7up), and then realized that it was not on the shelf (do they even make diet cherry 7up anymore?).

So I continued to ponder and looked around the shelves and decided to try something I haven't had in about 20 years or so.

Tab.

Yes, they still make Tab.
Yes, it still has saccharin in it.
No, I don't think I'll get cancer from drinking it.

Anyways, the main point (point? yeah right!) is that it tastes remarkably like the Splenda diet stuff. I don't like it.

The next post will be chock-a-block full of kick-ass rock and roll, I promise. I just had to get the whole Tab thing off my chest. Artificial sweeteners vex me sometimes.

I think Tab is actually *back*. They're marketing it at the youts. I've seen pics of Nicole Richie holding some. Which is good, because she certainly needs diet drinks. :p
