I'll Take a Fatburger and Diet Soda

If you're one of those people that order a burger, fries and diet soda read on.....

Now if you order the diet soda because you truly enjoy then you can stop reading.

For those that are still with me, why would someone order a big fat filled juicy burger and salty fries then top it off with a "diet" soda? Is there something in the diet soda that counteracts the fat and salt? It really is an oxymoron and doesn't make sense. If you are going to endulge in the burger and fries, finish it off with the full blown soda, what's the point? Is it a psycholgical "free pass" to enjoy the finer things in life without the guilt? Some of you may have noticed I did not say hamburger because as my earlier post indicates that stone is left unturned and I yet to find the reason, so for now it is burger until that is resolved.

I figure that if I can save calories that I will do it in the ways that don't matter to me. I don't mind the taste of the diet colas, so if that helps lower the whole caloric total - all the better. : )

That is true, what matter is the target calorie count at the end of the day. It's the ones that don't like the taste but they do it to like balance out the big monster burger. They are good and I just go for it, maybe skip my snacks throughout the day.
