My stomach doesn't like greasy foods so a soda usually settles it. My in-laws like to go to a local buffet for breakfast sometimes and their omelettes are a bit greasy   35d9  for me so I have to get a soda there. Fortunately I can eat that thing at like 8:30 and not be hungry again until dinner at 5. The alternative to soda and an omelette is essentially a ton of carbs or starches.
