Yes kids! Run out and get yourself a double gulp! The cups won't fit in your car's cup holder, it's at least 800 calories worth of soda (diet soda doesn't count.. that shit just gives you cancer), and refills are only 79 cents! (well, 99 in my area)

Diet soft drinks give you cancer?

Guess I'm getting cancer then. What's your source?

Yeah, but isn't the required cancer-causing dosage equivalent to something like 250 cans of diet soft drink a day for an adult human?

But it's stupid to rule out something from your diet just because consuming it in quantities several orders of magnitude greater than usual would cause you harm.

Consuming 100x more fat than you would normally will pretty much guarantee you heart failure in short order. Consuming 100x more water than usual in any given day will kill you very quickly. Drink 100 vodka shots — liver failure. Point is, "What happens when we consume way too much of this stuff?" simply isn't a useful method of deriving what is or isn't safe for us to consume in moderation.

Now, if there are studies suggesting that longterm moderate ingestion of aspartame leads to cancer, I would very much like to see them.

the cancer in his balls. all those years of diet pepsi and anal have finally caught up with him.

and 79 cents for cancer is better than 6 bucks a pack for smokes and cancer. awsome deal!

one time i was totally stoned and i decided that size would be a good idea.. it was the size of a toddler and sat in my apartment for weeks.
