Remember your precious soda may have no carbs, but it does have caffeine & aspartame- 2 things which should be avoided as they can slow weight loss & are generally bad for your body. Cream of tartar is used in many recipes- mostly for making meringues & can be found in the spice section of the grocery store- it's a white powder.

I've never had a problem with either of those. I'm still losing and it stops my craving for a sweet, bubbly drink.
