I have found that many soft drinks that are too sweet or strong to drink as
a general-purpose beverage are good occasionally; i.e., there are times
when it does taste good, if you don't drink too much of it.  Personally I
have a hypothesis this has to do with blood-sugar levels, since I find, for
example, that if I drink a large sized Dr.  Pepper from the local
convenience store, then I don't feel like drinking anything sweet later on.
I suspect this is a learned taste resulting from the fact that if you drink
too much of something sweet, it will make you feel bad.
