Oh look. It’s a brand-name product! This is a favorite that I really should be doing without but it seems to be an addiction that I can’t kick completely.
I like Pepsi.
Just Pepsi. Not diet, not zero, not any other type of ___-Pepsi. Just regular old Pepsi. Out of a can, out of a glass, with ice or without, it is my cola of choice. Now, I am not an elitist and I do not mind drinking Coke when it is all that is available.
Of all the things to have an addiction for, I really don’t need the calories and the sugar that these cans have to offer me. And yet it’s about the only way that I can get my caffeine fix up just high enough to where I’m not 1. suffering from a lack-of-caffeine headache and 2. wanting to rip someone’s face off because I’m still half asleep. It offers ‘just enough’ of a kick to my system.
Now, let’s talk about that lovely little headache that I get for a moment. I am prone to migraines and for many years I depended on the likes of Excedrin and other full-of-caffeine products to keep the edge off. Maybe it’s an addiction to caffeine itself now. But I’m a bit more of a realist here: I fear the 20-hour mark in a day between caffeine intakes because that headache sets in and goes straight to the red-zone, pending migraine quickly on its way. It’s not even a withdrawal headache at that point.
Regardless of all that, Pepsi is still my product of choice. I’m still not a fan of the logo re-design but I did applaud the change from the white/silver background of the cans/labels to the pretty blue color. Then again, my car is almost the same shade of blue. Mine is darker.
