Sprite is an essential food group

Someone found my little corner of the blog word by typing in:

“is sprite bad for people with IBS”

ahhh….someone after my own heart. You see, I know carbonation is “bad” for people with IBS. My brain knows that it is not smart to intentionally consume something that will add air to my system. But of everything I have had to give up or modify to deal with my IBS, Sprite is the ONE thing I REFUSE to give up. I think my system is used to it by now. Or I have just beaten it into submission for this one  thing. Because, really, I gave up caffeinated soda, that should be enough.  It’s too bad though that they can’t make the regular stuff calorie free without all those fake icky sugars that I can’t eat. Because there are a lot of calories at stake when you have more than one can a day.

So Sprite is an essential food group for me. Along with Carbohydrates. And not much else. Ahhh… gotta love those individual food pyramids…
