Not to suggest soda is a nutritional product, but really. It is not extremely acidic or you couldn't drink it. And like any mild acid it can be a handy product around the house. Ask Heloise about vinegar and for six dollars she will send you a pamphlet of fantabulous hints.

Merci and Danke, Well said, sir.
