Why do people drink pop?!


Question:

Why do people drink pop?

I feel like throwing up after drinking any kind of beverage, barring fruit juice, milk, tea and coffee. Pop is bad for you and my body knows it. Why do you drink pop?


Answers:
I think its like so many other things that are bad for you...your environment and/or influence by peers and culture. Almost everyone I know who was raised in the US had pop around their house as a kid, even if it was restricted, or only allowed as a special treat. Interestingly, everyone i know who spent their early years in Europe does not drink pop. So my "scientific theory" :) is that it is based on the presence of it in your younger years. If you never drank it as a kid, you're right, you probably would find it to taste odd and/or bad.

It tastes gooood

I don't drink pop. I can stand it occasionally but I could never drink it on a daily or even weekly basis. I think others drink it because of the taste. Also, I've heard that the bubbles help others when they have stomach aches.

it is an american culture icon
