Diet Rite Puns

I've been calling around North OC supermarkets all morning looking for this but no one seems to have it. I've called a few south OC as well. Has anyone happened to see it on a grocery store recently?

I called corporate (Keurig/Dr. Pepper) and they gave me a list of stores that might have it, but I called those stores and none of them had it.

This is for a friend's bday. She used to drink this with her father and has a nostalgic soft spot for it, but she's convinced that it's not made any more. I'm trying to get her some before her bday this Saturday.

Thank you for any help/leads!

Anyone know of a place that has Diet Rite pop cans in stock in the area? My mother hasn't been able to find them for quite a while at the usual grocery stores. Thanks!

Diet Rite are a $1 (in Victoria) brand 1.25 litre sold by Woolies and some IGA.

They have just released a new apple flavour. If I hadn't known its provenance, I would have assumed I was drinking 100% apple juice, its very sweet. Zero carbs and sugars, if you can cope with the following sweeteners.

952 Cyclamate, 950 Acesulphame potassium, 955 Sucralose.

Other flavours in this brand, Passionfruit, Portello, Ginger beer, Lemon lime, Lemonade

NOTE this is a premixed soft drink. Diet Rite also make a Lo Carb cordial.

I opened the bottle this morning and it's empty already.

Hey all!

I use the Diet Rite cordial because I don't like the taste of water 😄 I know it's ok for keto, and I don't get any adverse effects to it.

But HOW IN THE HELL DO YOU ADD IT TO YOUR MACROS?!? On the label it says 250mL, but that is mixed with water - 1:9 ratio, cordial to water.

I mix mine in a 1ltr bottle, with around 70mL of cordial only. Is that 4 servings, or less than one serving?!

HALP! I'm probably just over thinking, but if it's 4 servings I need to stop drinking it because it's like..... 8 grams of carbs!!!!

UPDATE So, a serving size is approximately 27mL. Which means I've been drinking at least 6 grams of sugar that I've not accounted for for 2 months. No fucking wonder my weight loss is extremely low!!!!

Any other options for water flavourings??

I didn't try it until a year or two ago, and now I love it. No caffeine, no sodium, no sugar, no aspartame, and it's delicious, especially with rum. Unfortunately I feel like it's getting harder and harder to find. I can only find it at the supermarket and occasionally Walmart.

Terrible name and label, though.

Definitely recommend it, if you haven't tried it.

My emails to the company go unanswered. 😢

Title

A=January B=February C=March D=April E=May F=June G=July H=August J=September K=October L=November M=December

One of these letters will be the first letter on the cap. It represents the month it was bottled in. (the rest of the numbers indicate the day of the month, the year and the plant)

If it is a plastic bottle and less then 3 months from that month, no problems. That is when the store/company merchandisers SHOULD pull them off the shelf. But the company tells the store.. no they are good for 6 months. If it is less then 3 months but the bottle gives easily when you pinch the top it is likely a year and a few months old.. And what the box says for the date.. isn't what the cans inside always say.

Haven't been here that long, thought I would help a couple grocery managers or paranoid people out.

(Cans are good for 12 months if sugar based, 6 months if diet and glass is 12 months as well)

(Totally posted in the wrong place first.. mah bad!)

Greetings Once Again Gainers,

INTRO

During some downtime, I've taken the time to write down some stuff related to my gaining experience. For those unfamiliar with me, I was once skinny as a 5'9 150lb high schooler and grew as big as 217lbs before eventually settling at my leanest at 177lbs, currently in the process of growing yet again and somewhere in the mid to high 180s. I've been training for 21 years as a lifetime natural, and wanted to share some of my stories, in a similar way to some of the greatest articles on gaining of all time such as How to Stay Small and Weak, Eating Through The Sticking Points and the stories contained in Randall Strossen's Super Squats

I've previously detailed the specifics of how I eat to gain Here, but in quick summary: I am a low carber. I wasn't always that way (as some of my stories below will reveal), but the majority of my nutrition is like that.

WHAT I HAVE DONE IN THE PURSUIT OF GAINING

In brief summary of my life, martial arts were my passion from ages 6-21 (and I actually just started back up again with Tang Soo Do, so that’s cool), after which point I got married, hung up the gloves and started pursuing lifting as my primary passion. At that time, I still wanted to be strong more than I cared about my physique, and the only way I knew to be strong was through powerlifting (because there were only two ways to train: bodybuilding or powerlifting, DUH!), so I got sucked into the Elitefts bandwagon. This was mid 2000s, when Dave was JUST recovering from the effects of what he had put his body through, and the majority of the material on the site was still very “old school” as far as nutrition went…so that was my guiding principle. No bad calories: get them in and grow. And before that, I had already experimented with Super Squats. With those as my guide, I managed to go from 5’9 190lbs to 217lbs in about 9 months during my first big go at bulking, and over the next 14 years I’ve bobbed up and down with weight gain and losses employing more tips and tricks along the way. These are some of the crazier things I’v

I really hate the 5th edition gnolls. They're so...simple and boring. Simply tools of evil. Flat and lifeless. Real life hyenas might be dangerous wild animals, but so are all large carnivores, and they have lots of interesting qualities too. So I've put in some thought for a more interesting race of hyena people, and I hope it tickles a few fancies.

Gnolls: the cryptids of DnD.

Forget the howling hordes of Yeenogu, gnolls are in fact, remarkably shy under normal circumstances (whoops, dropped a loaded sentence, we'll pick it up later ;) )

A race of hunter-gatherers, gnolls demonstrate exceptional skills at hunting, tracking and stealth, preferring tall grasslands or dense wooded areas. Gnolls tend to avoid people where they can, though their territories often overlap with human settlements. With their high stealth, gnolls are hard to spot, though they will frequently track intruders in their territory, not out of nefarious goals but rather because it's simply good sense to know what's going on in your neck of the woods. Sharp eyed rangers may spot pawprints, may see heads ducking behind trees or yellow eyes peering from bushes, but otherwise they are ghosts in the bushes.

Gnolls living near human settlements often attain an almost cryptid-like status. The eerie whoops and howls of a hunting pack coordinating in the night have given them their name, a corruption of "Nor-alles" or "ghost people" in the local tongue. At best, a gnoll might dump a lost child found wandering in their turf into the nearest chicken coop with a deers hoof to suck on, at worst they'll clean out the snares of the local trappers. Sometimes gnolls will steal from villages if they feel bold, but they tend to limit this to small items, favouring eggs. No-one notices a couple of eggs missing in the night. They will notice a missing chicken. People may swap stories of gnoll sightings, but generally the existence of a gnoll den nearby is something trappers and hunters are aware of, but not inclined to worry about.

Gnoll dens tend to be made in caves, or dug out of the earth. The outward appearance is rather vile, with scraps and bones lying about to attract flies, as well as a...midden. This is a deliberate choice, intended to discourage humans. Inside the den it is usually smelly (gnolls have a strong body odour) but clean, with little in the way of litter. And if you're inside the den, it will be empty of life too. All gnoll dens have bolt holes where they will flee to and wait

Long-time lurker, first-time poster. This is my way of giving back to the community. The story is by no means original, but if you’re like me, a fan of They are Smol, you will not object to another dose. Yes, I use Grammarly. I write very little and do not have inspiration for series, those are just the excess ideas I accumulated while reading HFY. Please forgive the lack of formatting, I just want to post ;)

Galactic Council report 33466690, year 173403, by lady Lisandra Duskhunter of the Shalti

-rough draft version 3-

New species introduction parameters

Self-designated name: human/humans

Classification: bilateral biped

Niche: endurance predator

Diet: omnivore

Natural weapons: overpopulation

Introducing new species has always been a challenge. In the name of the resilience doctrine, this document contains first data points gathered after the traditional standardized solar year of unsupervised interactions with "humans" and will contribute to interspecies legislation.

Contrary to the Gorlax Casino stakes, the humans' major source of conflict with the galactic community was not their aggressiveness, at least not among the high-albedo populations. Neither was it smell, spreading disease, or supposed human proclivity to "copulate everything that moves". The Gorlax Casino is currently pursuing an interplanetary lawsuit against Earth-side company "Crimson Point" and the "Eich Ef Why" tribe, accusing them of manipulating the data.

A peculiar feature of the new sapients was discovered during the unsupervised standardized year. Early tests revealed nothing out of a galactic average for the class 8 planet, where Earth belongs, except an elevated tactile response. The volunteering test subjects did not react significantly to metallic or organic materials. When a Shalti technician accidentally brushed against the test subject's appendage, the neural sensors recorded a sharp spike. Discounted as an anomaly, the humans were approved for unsupervised interaction.

The specific incident accounts are too voluminous to mention here and many of them are copyrighted for novelization or already being produced in audio-visual or holographic formats and various genres, especially comedy, thriller, and horror. This report will only contain introductory points for races most likely to suffer from human-specific challenges.

The crucial issue:

Class 8 planets are notoriously difficult places to survive and each species come up with specific strategies. The mos

There will be a time in the near future when humanity rediscovers the lost secrets of the ancients.

As this is merely the beginning and the Apocalypse has already begun...

The unveiling of forbidden knowledge that has been kept hidden from humanity since dawn of human civilization.

For the ritual in which I speak is already an epidemic, thus its rediscovery is inevitable.

Its only once everyone realizes how to finish it, the truth in which the Catholic Church spent millennia trying to protect us from will finally be known.

However in order to grasp the concept, you must think of the immaculate conception as primitive from of birth control in which one refuses to finish, Tantric Sex.

There's a Technique where one channels, redirects and Ankhs the energy that creates life in its totality into the crown, allowing the person that preforms it to continue indefinitely and amplifies the moment of climax to such an extent that it induces a variety of metaphysical and psychedelic phenomena.

That increases in intensity each time the ritual is preformed successfully.

Whether or not children born of the ritual possess advanced spiritual/psychic gifts I do not know. Only that they have been revered in our past.

The problem is that its literally the most addicting experience one could ever know which amplifies any and all altered states of consciousness... For few have the spiritual discipline necessary to sustain the Sacred Fire at the highest levels. It consumes them... Driving many into depths of insanity/hell. Kinda like a meth head after a 8 hour sex binge. They begin to hear voices and hallucinate, causing permanent psychological damage. Because if the energy is too immense and you lose control, it triggers a temporal lobe seizure in which you lose all motor functions and collapse where one could potentially relive/regain a portion of their past life self/memories. Basically your life flashes before your eyes, while having a outer body experience because for a brief moment you died.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harrowing_of_Hell

Thus the ancients devised safer methods and disciplines to induce the state naturally by maintaining prolonged states of abstinence, in which the energy becomes far easier to control allowing them to trigger amplified Kundalini awakening at will. Through breathing and diet alone.

Enter Ketosi

So I learned that for some, whisky (scotch) triggers psoriasis. Guess what my DOC is.

It's on my chest, nipples, arms, shoulders, armpits, back, stomach, legs.... Sometimes it's on my face.. Right now, it's even on my fucking taint (or whatever vagina havers have in that department). All I know is it's the worst place to have it besides your pits and it's painful as fuck. And so. fuckin. itchy. And I deal with this all day everyday. No cream properly helps because I drink most days. I'm so itchy and scaly or raw and painful and jesus why am i doing this to myself

my brother questioned if it was the T (hrt) because it only started when I started T but I also started drinking around that time. Because I was an idiot, independent for the first time ever, had the money to drink, was dealing with a SHIT tonne of repressed trauma that all came up when I came out, my mother despised me for coming out and being trans/a man/FTM, AND I was withdrawing from opioids all at the same time so I thought it was a way to ease me off some. I needed an escape so badly that I went from an essentially housebound agoraphobic (diagnosed as such, not an exaggeration) to spending hours sitting on the beach drinking vodka within 2 months. I actually walked 4 hours to city once because I was "drunk enough" (plastered). Desperately needed the train home, didn't know how to get to it when it was a street away. long street but a street. another 4 hours back.

all of that after being essentially a housebound agoraphobic for almost 10 years now. Because of alcohol. And my mother's disgust and pure hatred of me. I panic until the bottle shop. Then calm and motivation and confidence i never had in my life after a few swigs. i actually carried a 2L diet sprite to mix with in my backpack. For the record, diet sunkist is better. Nexba raspb and pineapple are good too. and diet rite portello oh i love that i miss it so much jeez

So anyway I relapsed after having a seizure after drinking enough vodka that pulling down my shorts and boxer to piss in the sand was a good idea. cause i was afraid to use the mens room (ive done it several times since, no one cares ,but also maybe i pass better than i think). pretty sure i was wearing my packer (prosthetic penis) too. Then I seized, pants down. Woke up when it was dark and bawled my way home, falling over more than sveral times.

I would have a daughter

My husband's cousin is visiting with his kids, and the teenage daughter has an active eating disorder. Which is what it is, I know a lot of us go through that, it's almost like a perverse (and dangerous) rite of passage in our culture.

But like. My husband's grandpa is constantly talking about sugar grams and calories. His cousin (the girl's father) is always running marathons and making comments about how he's going to run off this or that thing that he ate. And I'm like...do you guys not see that this diet culture talk is part of the problem?

So I'm trying to work up the courage to explain to my in laws why they might want to lay off on the diet talk in front of cousin's daughter. Whether they listen to me or not is their business, but I want to at least try. Wish me luck people. If anyone has advice on how to approach it, I'd love to hear.

But Bill kept the Windows

True story; it even happened last night. My 5-year-old son walks up behind me and out of the blue says, "hey."

I turn to him and say, "yeah, kiddo? What's up?"

He responds, "it's dead grass."

I'm really confused and trying to figure out what's wrong and what he wants from me. "What? There's dead grass? What's wrong with that?"

.

He says, totally straight-faced, "hay is dead grass," and runs off.
