Yep, artificial sweeteners do that. Fortunately I have a severe medical condition that seems to offset much of that potential weight gain.

After acclimation, one actually finds sugar pop too … saccharine (ironic use of word noted ☺.

I only like extra spicy ginger beer these days.  For everything else, sugar overwhelms all other flavors and the 'burn' which is why I like pop in the first place is only strong enough for the first gulp or two drinking out of the can/bottle.

I can't abide the aftertaste of artificial sweeteners.  It is as bad as salad dressing instead of mayonnaise in recipes.  Every now and then I get one I think works and then a few seconds later, it's yech, yech, yech.

Oh man, I missed it...   Those conspiracy theorists might get more traction if they could combine their theories for alien planets and Revelation proof-texting, with Mormon myths.   Missed opportunity I think, just sayin...  

Am off to the sacred groove.

As a BYU alumnus, I would have preferred they abandon the no-facial-hair policy first. Never cared much about caffeine.

Baby steps, baby steps... they will get there.

Some want to blame the UofU vs BYU win loss record. I think a marketing campaign had more effect.

Bundaberg Ginger Beer is the best, amazing.

Buzzfeed compiled a list of some of the best memes. Although, it doesn't include that BYU is selling caffeine in order to pay for the $35 million for  the Book of Mormon manuscript. https://www.buzzfeed.com/juliareinstein/byu-gettin-lit?bffbfood&utm_term=.pvD353xWm#.qdkmEm7Q0

It's awesome with bourbon and lime (for those who really want to push the Word of Wisdom...)

It's a football fundraiser. The 1-3 start has resulted in a reduction of donations and money is required to compete with the big boys.
