Yep, not a big deal in the grand scheme of things but it's my birthday today, I'm working tomorrow and have 2 DC to deal with in the morning so can't have a big drink but I thought a few glasses of pimms and lemonade might be a nice mid week treat. I bought a bottle of normal, not diet lemonade at the weekend, tried a glass yesterday but poured it away because it tasted of artificial sweeteners, on the way home from work tonight I trawled the supermarket for a bottle of regular lemonade but couldn't find any, I settled for a bottle of Schweppes thinking it might be ok but it tastes like shit, even with loads of pimms.
I can taste artificial sweeteners a mile off and they taste crap! Is it just me? I understand that the chemical stuff is lots cheaper than regular sugar but I'd rather just pay the extra for a drink that tastes better and doesn't give me the shits.
