  1. In 2004 I stopped drinking Pepsi. Then last summer it was 112* here in the California Sierras and someone offered me an ice cold Dr Pepper. So I took a drink and my look gave me away because I was asked what was wrong. The stuff tasted and smelled like some medicine I had taken as a child and I simply could not drink the stuff.

    Once your system has been purged of toxic foods and liquids it reacts badly when given something unhealthy. Thankfully!
