I agree. Eating the actual fruit, rather than drinking the juice is better b/c you are getting the fiber in the fruit which is obviously going to fill you up and give you the benefits of fiber in your diet. Diet pop is better than regular for sure but it is still high in soduim and so if you are trying to watch your sodium intake, then even diet pop may not be the best thing, unless it's every once in awhile.
