The previous list is really good, the one I had a hard time with was RTD. It means ready to drink. Thats the only one I didn't know when I started coming on this site.

Great list Kelly.

Add:

SF = sugar free

Hey, why not make up a list and make it sticky for everyone to see right off the bat?

[KellyL 173]

Thanks Rootman, and yes SF = sugar free is a must for the list, I could of swore I had that on there! I agree, this would be a good sticky.

Felicia: RTD = ready to drink is a good one!!

Hopefully others will think of more.
