Is it just me or is it impossible to find a healthy drink inside the grocery store?

I drink water a lot as well as teas, but you know every once in a while you want something else.

Even drinks like Sobe Green Tea and Arizona Iced Green tea seem to be getting sweeter, so sweet I can no longer drink them. WTF!:eek:

By a blender and make your own drinks.

Thats right they have wall to wall fridges with colas and sodas to the hilt.
Try find a fruit juice or a water and you must scratch in a little corner maybe
on the other side of the shop.
Coke has virtually its own fridge wall - man - why do people drink that stuff?
I feel your pain but luckily we can still find a fruit juice without all the additives. Try steer your kids clear of all the bright coloured cans - thats another story!

There are fruit juices with no chemical scam in it.

How's the tap water in your country?

Beer (http://www.opposingdigits.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=7145) - Not the typical US crap though.

Yeah we make our own agua frescas (fruit water) yeah beer haha... imports..

My kid doesn't know anything but soy milk and water.

Tap water and most bottled water in the U.S. is CRAP! We have a mountain about and hour away and sometimes I get the water from the spring which tastes sooooo good...

Soy is BAD! I believe they banned it in China as a food because it was so toxic. They only brought it back when they discovered if it was brewed, it was safe. The crap they're pimping in the US is not brewed (not safe). Soy can cause digestive upset, and it appears for me to have contributed in conjunction with Silicon Dioxide half the symptoms I had of Lupus. (Think about it, why do 9x more women have Lupus than men?) Ok, stop thinking: It's used in make-up, it's marketed towards women because of an estrogen mimicker (Geinestein).

You can easily make nut milk, it tastes better, and makes a suitable replacement (If you MUST have milk or alternative drinks / processed foods).
