Soda is horrible for you, even if you don't consider sodium benzoate. The amount of sugar or high fructose corn syrup and sodium in it alone is cause for concern... but most people in American society don't care about what they eat as long as it doesn't make them fat.For myself, I drink green tea sweetened with local honey or water. I'm also a big fan of a drink called naked juice, which is basically a pound of fruit that is juiced and put into a bottle.

The acid is just horrible for your body not to mention how it destroys your teeth. We had to fit a 14 year old with dentures a year or so ago because all she drank was soda. Sad to see such a young girl with black broken teeth.I drink mostly water and we have Naked Juice here too but I usually drink something called Bothouse (I believe thats the name) which is the same thing; juiced fruit in a bottle. And like Abby I do love my Iced Tea hehe :), fresh brewed of course

Naked juice is sooooo good, but kind of expensive.
