600 kcal in other terms is: a sandwich and 2 small pieces of chocolate
2 sausages and two eggs
Coke isnt really more energy dense than orange juice but getts a worse rep, my point being is that if you dont pay attention to the actual energy contained in your food 600 kcal can be inhaled in a whim.

That's a pretty small sandwich, with none of the fun toppings.

I'm an American, and I usually consume about 48oz of Coke Zero a day.. So definitely believable.

Like.... Why?
That sounds horrendous
If you drink it with meals I don’t see why not. Or even as a snack. Coca Cola is delicious.

Coke Zero is zero calorie, it has no sugar.

> Nah bugger off, literally no one is drinking 1.5 litres of Coke a day, absolute madness.
I know people who have done that in the past - it's one bottle or 5 cans or 3 medium bottles or 2.6 pints (easily done if you're spending 8 hours a day in the pub as we did at uni.)
(I'm pretty sure I've had periods where I've drunk the daily equivalent in coke, coffee, redbull, etc.)

If only that were true. A day? Try: in one sitting. Convienence stores in the USA have sold 64 oz cups of soda for decades.
