Coke in McD cup DONE! (Why is it always in a McD cup???)

Hmmm......good question, Slick.

I guess it all started because I'd stop at McD's for a coke on the way to work. Then I started thinking that at $1.50 or so a piece, I could be buying lots of cans of coke and making my own rather than supporting McD's - that's when their stock took a nose dive. Other than that, I think it's just that through the years McD's cups have proved to be the most reliable - and the perfect size. A large coke comes in a 32 oz cup but with ice, two 12 oz cans of coke fit perfectly! And their lids are reliable also. I've tried cups and lids from "the competition" and they just don't hold up like McD's cups do. I have about 7 or 8 plastic McD's cups that I use then bring home, put in the dishwasher and reuse. They last forever and I get my daily dose of sugar/caffeine/or whatever it is that I'm addicted to for a fraction of the cost and so much less hassle than stopping every morning on my way to work!

Whew! That's the most thought I've put into this coke thing for a long time! Think I'll take a green slushie to help me ponder for awhile longer on this whole addiction of mine.

Pic of my daily fix - notice that it's quite empty and I could really go for a refill, but I try to limit myself to one a day.
