My parents didn’t let us drink sweetened sodas except on special occasions, and never Coca-Cola for some reason. It massively helped, to the point that apart from a few high school and college years, I don’t really drink them.

Same. Milk was always an option.
During college I availed myself of all-you-can-drink soda, and pretty much stopped drinking milk. Surprise, surprise the change (coupled with stress) resulted in some pretty serious and frequently recurring GI issues.
Finally isolated the cause (docs were useless), went back on a 1+ glass of milk a day practice, and everything returned to normal.
Since then, I pretty much cut soda out of my diet as well. IMHO, if we're looking at it from a caloric perspective, there are a lot more delicious things to spend 140 calories on.
