    Diet Coke causes cancer!

    Aspartame causes cancer: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/en...ubmed_RVDocSum

    Take care. I personally don't drink that stuff, but I'm sure we have one or two over here that does.

    I'll be sure not to drink more than 100 diet cokes a day to keep my level of aspartame well below the levels indicated in the study.

    I'm not that hard to imitate. Just make some random negative claim at Apple or anything else for that matter and then have nothing to back it up.

    Subby... You're forgetting that EVERYTHING causes cancer these days.
    Fart = cancer
    Breathe = cancer
    Live = cancer

    I like Coke but I can't stand Diet Coke.

    So much for the idea that everything that tastes bad is good for you.

    Just to add the obvious reply: Coke lost every appeal since they removed cocaine from the recepture.

    Stop chewing gum too people. Main ingredient? Aspartame.
