Did the dew today, first time after AKU. Back then it comprised an important part of my breakfast, lunch and dinner with a few tosses in between. Any cold drink would do then. But since the time my stomach started sending signals in an adverse fashion to the acidic effect of these cold drinks I have had few and those too in limited quantities. Anyhow I did the dew today and very very surprisingly it didn't taste good at all!
I do remember there were times when every so called Muslim in this country vehemently recorded his expressions against these foreign cold drinks. Many arguments were sighted in favour of giving up these acidic drinks. All of a sudden it had stared to matter that these caused various ill effects on the body and teeth rotted away. Most of the prevalent diseases were in one way or the other the result of these poisonous liquids. But now things have changed back. Now there are locally made sub-standard substitutes available in the market (The foreign brands are also sub-standard). Quite surprisingly they cause no such harm to common man. No excuses are put forward in their use and abuse. It didn't matter to the general public then and it doesn't matter to it now. Those who want to consume these cold drinks keep on doing so quite unabated by the criticism they get.
These are harmful drinks and there is no doubt about it. One must try and restrict the use of any beverage that contains effervescence from CO2. Apart from disturbing the milieu of the gastrointestinal system these drinks cause tooth carries. These beverages contribute to obesity and also lead to addiction.
