Though I don’t care enough to see if those studies were conclusive.
They aren’t. But to the larger point, what kind of world would that be? I think it’s great that we can all like different things and lead our lives.
For instance, I despise light beer, but I’ve never ended a friendship because someone ordered a pitcher of Miller Lite at happy hour.
A world without diet soda wouldn’t be that different. But I also don’t really care what other people drink. It’s none of my business. But, that doesn’t mean I can’t think drinking diet pop, or beer of any kind, or buttermilk, is dumb.
