Diet 7-up and malibu was our fav. (which travels well in a bottled water container too. It's not bad with a bit of pungent garnish, like lime or mint. We are just now working with the new lime dietcoke and coconut rum...more as this story developes. A piece in this months Scintific American mentions lab rats who get accustomed to eating sweets which have no sugar, actually stop getting full, and eat more and more with no association of having enough of the sweet. The ones who just eat sweets, get the sugar and stop. I wonder what would happen if they did the same thing with light beer? [ Edited by: Gigantalope on 2004-08-16 08:33 ]
