Of course, Punk apparently drinks, and that's not even pointing out the irony that even if he drinks caffeine free diet Pepsi, he's still putting toxins into his system. Pepsi has two of the worst legal substances on the planet in it--Caffeine and sugar, and the acid in it's horrible, even sans caffeine. and Asparatame...But I digress.
I kind of think he's not getting pushed too hard because they don't want to look like fools if he fails a piss test.

Since when has Punk been a consumer of alcohol? Just out of curiosity.
I've had some friends who have gone "edge," and while there are acids in Pepsi, I don't think Punk would get impaled for drinking it. It's mainly alcohol, smoking and drugs the beliefs are again, isn't it? Some deeper forms do practice ruling out medicinal use of drugs and caffeine, as you mentioned.
I think you just have the straight-edge lifestyle on a technicality. It is almost impossible to not poison your body without breathing these days.
