I enjoyed Mr. Robbins blog too Aprill.
The cliqhe', "They think we're all dumb" certainly applies here. Coca Cola put a large caliber round into their collective foot, and did it while said foot was in their mouth.

Reading the labels on consumables is par for the course but even then some companies don't list all ingredients. Remember what products contained olestra? That fake fat caused stomach problems in some people. After that tidbit was out they just stopped touting it. Was it removed? Who knows?

High Fructose Corn Syrp makes things taste good but yep wbcs, it is directly linked to obesity. I vaguely recall the safe threshold for consuming coca cola being way down somwhere like one 12 ounce can every two or three weeks. Of course I could be wrong but I don't even drink that much soda.

I must add that labels don't lie. The people that write them can, and do.

corn syrup has also been linked directly to obesity, and i do believe that's one of the main ingredients in vitamin water. and Coke btw. also, we miss you fools :o)
