Not sure if I agree with this Chris. I definitely feel more buzzed after a can of Coke than I do a cup of coffee. That said two cups of Coffee on an empty stomach makes me shake!
Where did you find this?
Coke also has a shit load more sugar – I wonder if sugar and caffeine react in anyway together?
I avoid coke and all fizzy shit, but I will never give up coffee, or chocolate!
Still, other than ink, ok and wine, those are my only vices, and… smoking is still WAY worse than caffeine or sugar. (soz hun, had to add that!)
SaulK – I think the buzz you are feeling is from the large amount of sugar in the coke, not the caffeine.
I avoid cokes and things as well and I no longer drink coffee, decided that all these things are far too bad for me and it’s a minor sacrifice. Besides, I really enjoy fruit juice! :)
Yes darl, smoking is bad, I know this, it’s just not a viable time to quit :P
