I drink diet Dr. Pepper so #1 doesn't apply. #2 actually seems to be a good thing. I am not so flammable! And #3, well, I am still regular, active, have 4 kids so hmmmm. Bring on the Diet Dr. Pepper!!!!!

Yes, but it is not normally toxic...

More:

"Despite the unsettling-sounding ingredients, experts agreed that the biggest killer is the excessive sugar and calories found in most sodas."

Hehehe, as I learned in toxicology, 'all substances are a poison, but the quantity/ volume you consume determines the (immediate) toxicity'.
Still, I'd rather die 5 or 10 years earlier then having to skip my precious, my Mountain Dew... :crazy:
(of course drinking it in 'normal' amounts)
