This Day in History
  As the World Turns Premieres (1956)Soap operas began in the early 1930s as 15-minute radio episodes and continued in that format when they began appearing on TV in the early 1950s. As the World Turns premiered as the first half-hour TV soap. The show, which primarily focused on two professional families in the fictional town of Oakdale, Illinois, ran for 54 years and aired nearly 14,000 episodes. For 20 of those years, it was most-watched daytime drama in the US. What interrupted a live broadcast of the show in 1963? More... Discuss |

Yes interesting , I don't like it a lot to be honest , not the taste but just because its kind of too fizzy for me , I know some of the kids in my family have drank gallons of it ( their dad worked for the company and got lots of freebies ) I have always thought Coca cola did a good job of advertising their product from the Victorian style Santas to the advert song ;Id like to buy the world a coke' it really is a guarded secret recipe , but pepsi must have came close to matching it as its almost the same taste but not quite, I prefer pepsi myself, always seems a little less strong on my tastebuds .
I used to prefer it over most cola drinks, but I did my favorites in spells; I dated a woman who loved Dr Pepper and since that's what she had at her house and what I kept in mine for her (I didn't drink a lot of soda pop then) that's what I started liking.
When my diabetes starting hitting me hard and before I knew what was wrong, I was drinking a LOT of soft drinks...which, of course, made it worse. I was SO thirsty all the time and something about the carbonated "bite" seemed to slake my thirst better than water. Good ol' water is what I drink the most of, now, plus 2-3 cups of coffee/day or sometimes tea.
I just bought a liter of Diet Coke while I was out earlier; I'll drink on it for several days. Funny, I always swore I'd NEVER drink diet sodas b/c they tasted so nasty to me, then I found out if I was going to get to drink them, that's what I had to settle on. Still, I preferred other diet sodas, like DP or my fav., Big Red, which tastes really close to the sugar version. I do prefer diet Pepsi to Coke, but I didn't see any at the store earlier, don't think they carry 'em. I also like diet 7-Up, but don't see them much, plus it doesn't have any caffeine and that's what I want! (most of the time!)
Thanks f/ posting!
It's Coca-Cola for me all the way. I drink way too much, but I don't see that changing unless I find out I am diabetic like you and Sandy did, Mike. When I do drink a diet drink it's A&W diet root beet of diet cherry 7-Up. I don't mind those at all. I have also tried some of the "10" drinks. I'm not sure what sugar source they use but they are only 10 calories. I have tried the A&W root beer, 7-up and orange and they aren't too bad. It's all what your body gets used to I think.
