A glass of cola is liquid sugar - and it hides in your meal
One glass of cola is about 105 kcal of pure sugar with zero protein and zero fibre, so it never makes you full. Drink it beside your thali and it quietly adds the calories of an extra half-roti you will not even notice.

A cold drink with food just washes the meal down - it doesn't really count as calories.

Mostly false. A regular glass of cola is about 105 kcal of liquid sugar with zero protein and zero fibre. Liquid calories barely register as fullness in your body, so they add to your meal instead of replacing any food on your plate. Sip one with lunch and you have quietly eaten the calories of an extra half-roti - without feeling any fuller.
