OK, so this isn't like something earth shattering, but for me it is, and is not something I plan to do on a regular basis at all,(maybe never again) but I drank Diet Coke instead of coffee this morning.
. I don't remember the last time I didn't have coffee in the morning..probably when I was sick several months ago..and before that..hmm years, but it will be hot today.I have Coke and I just wanted it. One time years ago, we were in Virginia Beach at a McDonalds for breakfast and I noticed people drinking Coke with their breakfast meals..being from the North. way back when, that is something that really isn't done,,but I was always curious about it..so I took the plunge..coffee is much healthier but this Coke tastes good too. I think I will be sticking to coffee in the future..but hey, now I can say I have done the Coke thing.

Coke I noticed is addictive. I never go for such drinks but I did that only once and noticed I got a craving for more. Luckily I controlled that craving.

I don´t have Coke most times and mostly fruit juice if one of my Son´s come round to eat.
I don´t drink much coffee at all unless I go out and that is not too often either.
That does not mean to say however that I don´t like Coke because I do and a lot.

I just wish they would put some juice in it, or make it healthier for you.

Coke is a great drink to have around when you are really too hot and in the middle of the night if you feel a bit queasy to drink.
I have to get me a fresh bottle of it as it goes flat way too quick that is another problem with it as well.

Yeah, Coke may have no redeeming benefits, but it tastes good!

I have always drank soda with breakfast , and I grew up in the north. I don't think its a north vs south thing.

I don't know of others in the North who do it on a regular basis. It makes sense it would be more Southern as it is hot here alot of the time.

It tastes like regular Coke without the sugar.

I don't think I have ever done it. I remember one time when we were staying in a motel on a trip..I was going to drink some coke in the morning,,,and my dad said "That's not a breakfast food." I don't think I drank it for breakfast again. I guess I think, "That's not a breakfast food."

My coffee has artificial sugar I add along with flavored powder creamer and milk. I doubt its much healthier then soda. I have one coffee every morning but rarely ever drink soda. Soda makes my urine too acidic and then I get UTIs. I use the artifical sugar to cut down on my sugar intake which causes yeast infections. One day I will quit coffee and be much healthier I think but a lot more tired.

@snowy22315 coffee itself is good for us but not the other junk I put in it. If I drank it black then I would get the health benefits but I think I am doing more harm then good drinking it with all the junk in it.

@shaggin Maybe instead of coffee you should cut down on the stuff you put in it..or just use milk..

Coffee is good for you it is a major antioxidant and 3 cups per day is supposed to help prevent Alzheimers. I put nothing but alittle milk in mine. I would think twice about quitting coffee.

I am not a coffee drinker. I do like diet coke or coke zero. For breakfast I have hot chocolate and later on in the day I will have soda of some kind.

Very interesting! So what did you eat with your Coke? I would find it so unusual to have my oatmeal or cereal and then drink a Coke 
But like you say, ya gotta try it once to find out....

I had a poached egg, two strips of the ready made bacon and toast with a little jelly. It is slightly unusual for me to eat all of the above. I am generally a cereal eater.

@dgobucks226 I thought it tasted pretty good. Now, coke and cereal with milk seems like a bad combo.

@snowy22315 Those items just might be ok with a coke
