Yes, any flavored carbonated water = soda.
Except (get this)
Tonic water = tonic water, or tonic. Never soda.
I am a diet tonic water FREAK btw, I drink a lot lot lot of it - no malaria for me!  |

It's pop around here! That stuff will clean the posts on your battery, so I can't imagine it's that good for you.
Water, beer, wine......

A little more
I'm with you Phantasm, give me water, beer or wine and make it natural please. The more we process our food the deadlier it is for us.
9 teaspoons per can of pop.
As of 1998, the average American sugar consumption has risen to 148 lb. per person per year, which is over 1/3 lb. per day (Guest, 1998).
