Gonad said:Cranky Bastard, in the Coke vs. Pepsi thread I thought you stated that Diet Sodas are designed to make you (general you) fat. If that is what you stated, I would like to respond that I doubt making people fat is the goal of the diet soda manufacturers. Perhaps a more accurate statement (one that I would still argue against) would be that "Diet sodas have a design that makes you fat."

Wouldn't something that made you fat by design, altering your metabolism, be a good thing?
