As a former drinker of Diet Coke, I'm so glad I found Sprite.
Now that I drink it, I have no idea how I even drank Diet Coke. Sprite is my absolute go-to, but some people think it shouldn't be.
Here are 11 things about Sprite addicts that everyone else should comprehend.
1. There IS a difference between Sprite, 7UP, Sierra Mist, etc.
Just like with Coke and Pepsi, there's a difference. They're all good in their own respects, but nothing can beat Sprite, but don't tell me they're all the same because they most certainly are not.
2. There's also a difference when you drink bottled Sprite and canned Sprite
Does that sound crazy? Probably. But there is a difference. I prefer canned Sprite because the taste is always fresh and crisp, but some others may like bottled over canned. It's all about personal preference but there's a difference between them.
3. The withdrawal is REAL
It's almost like people who have an addiction to coffee. When they don't have their coffee, they get a headache and often become very grumpy. Same thing with Sprite, though. If we don't get our "fix", you're better off just watching out.
4. We usually stock up on Sprite every grocery store trip
I mean, can you really ever have enough? The answer is no.
5. Instead of coffee, most of our days start with an ice-cold Sprite
And let me tell you that it's gonna be a BAD day if we haven't had our Sprite yet.
6. We understand that Sprite isn't "good for you"
You know what else isn't good for you? Complaining to me how bad Sprite is.
7. Sprite makes us feel a certain type of way
There's truly just not one thing that can compare to the feeling we get when we drink Sprite.
8. We spend more money on Sprite than we care to admit
But, I mean, there are people who spend hundreds of dollars on Starbucks coffee every month so... is it really that bad?
9. It's never too early or too late to pop open a can of Sprite
7 AM? Grab that can. 7 PM? Pour you a glass. The best time to drink Sprite is all the time.
10. We can drink Sprite with ANY meal
Eating oatmeal for breakfast? Don't forget the Sprite. Eating a steak dinner? There's a Sprite waiting in the fridge for you. Eating ice cream in bed? You know what to do.
11. We sometimes stop drinking it for a while
... And then relapse and start drinking it all over again. Let me tell you that it's an endless cycle.
Maybe one day we'll stop drinking it and stop spending so much money buying it but... probably not.
