April 14, 201015 yr Some time back, I used to drink a lot of 7-UP. Now I know that 7-Up is available in Chiang Mai, but what I am looking for is DIET 7-UP..... Can it be bought here in Chiang Mai and can anyone tell me where.??? Gonzo
April 14, 201015 yr Why DIET 7-Up, Gonzo? The chemicals in artificial sugar is worse for you than real sugar... unless it's just the different taste you like.

April 14, 201015 yr Why DIET 7-Up, Gonzo? The chemicals in artificial sugar is worse for you than real sugar... unless it's just the different taste you like. thats not true. I believe that aspartame was highly carcinogenic as well, but I am no longer in that camp. Also, obesity is a much larger concern than ingesting carcinogens, and drinking pure hfcs is a good way to get obese/diabetic etc., not to mention things like cavities...
April 14, 201015 yr Author ....gee thats nice to know , I'm sure, but do you know where I can get some diet 7-UP ????
April 14, 201015 yr I would like a soda stream! My aunt was clinically obese. She had lost one hip under the weight. The French have the best health care in the world. She was carted off to a fat farm, for re-education. I cared for her for a year, she lost ALL her excess weight. Her diet: Mainly massive pots of boiled vegetables, lean meat: rabbit; fish...the odd binge on cheese here and there. but most strikingly, the docs advised MASSIVE quantities of caffeine free, sugar free, fizzy drinks.. this bloats the stomach and triggers the 'satisfaction' feelings that you get with a full belly. strange but true.
April 14, 201015 yr Don't know where to get diet 7up but by the size of your servings you and I both need it.
April 14, 201015 yr The only diet versions of soft drinks I've found are Coke and Pepsi - I've asked for Sprite and 7Up often but without luck but I'm sure that someone will see the market and start to sell them soon.
April 14, 201015 yr No diet 7up I've ever seen, we used to have diet Sprite for a while but I guess it's just not what the local like.
April 14, 201015 yr No diet 7up I've ever seen, we used to have diet Sprite for a while but I guess it's just not what the local like. I want my diet DR PEPPER!
April 14, 201015 yr No diet 7up I've ever seen, we used to have diet Sprite for a while but I guess it's just not what the local like. I want my diet DR PEPPER! They do have root beer here another brand, I'm sure ive seen Dr Pepper, will check/
April 14, 201015 yr There are Dr Peppers I think at Rimping or Kasem store but not the Diet ones.

April 15, 201015 yr I would think that discriminating drinkers like Gonzo would also be clamoring for Diet Tonic Water (like I am). It takes only 2 or 3 gin and diet tonic drinks to get used to it; being sure to add a real lime chunk well squeezed. Think of the calories not ingested. And the psychological benefit of diet over regular is immeasurable.

April 15, 201015 yr ....gee thats nice to know , I'm sure, but do you know where I can get some diet 7-UP ???? well you take a can of regular 7-Up - two mugs - and pour half a regular can into both then top up with water - Hey Presto! half the calories... neat na? do-it-your-self diet 7-Up - that must earn me 'most useful tip of the day'?

April 15, 201015 yr Author Just some input to those looking for Root Bear...... they sell it at Makro.... A & W yet...... pretty good stuff if you can hack the sweetness..... no sweeter than it used to be but just seems like it if you haven't had it for some time. Loved it when they still had the old A & W shops where you could pull up in the car and the car-hops came out with your order and hung it on the car window..... the greatest coney dogs.... dam_n I am getting hungry now ...... talk to you guys later.... off to the kitchen gonzo
April 15, 201015 yr Author Trying to think of even one caffeine free, sugar free fizzy drink. Not sure if they make it any more, but they used to make a caffeine free and I think it was diet,,,, COKE It used to be in a gold and red can..... pretty good stuff.... gonzo

April 15, 201015 yr Ahh, Gonzo. What a wonderful stroll down Memory Lane. Not only were the A&W carhops on rollerskates lovely....how about the frozen mugs that the concoction was served in? You're in Bakersfield in the summer, the asphalt is melting, 110 in the shade......ice cold A&W root beer. Those were the innocent days, before Beer Leo.....

April 15, 201015 yr I think there IS. There used to be a special kind that did not, but I have not seen it for many years.
April 16, 201015 yr There is caffeine in Diet Coke. Coke did put out a version called Caffeine Free Coke Cola. If I remember the can was gold in colour.
