So, Coke, Dr. Pepper and Pepsi are working to find ways to lower the (high) amounts of sugar-- do you believe that?

They just wanna sell a smaller can for the same amount of money.

Well that case they better not sell anything over a 12oz bottle anymore and hope the consumer stops at just one

In my opinion it's a scam because all sugar is addicting. It goes to the pleasure centers of the brain but also raises blood pressure so you get cravings after you just had a high sugar meal. I think simple carbs run under the same principal.

I'd have to look it up for the exact name but chips have a chemical in them that can reduce the part in your brain that tells you to stop eating because you are full.

So then after a meal of simple carbs you're still hungry even though you ate because of a combination of the above.

The pop and junk food companies know this because they have food scientists working for them so this is just my opinion but it's a scam to make more money.

Don’t buy it at home.

I mean smaller servings worked in the 60s and 70s...people drank less soda because there was less soda in the bottle/glass. So it would probably work.

Sales are dropping... and I suppose moms still do the most food shopping... It also said that sales dropped as soon as the word got out about so much obesity.

It’s funny (and as a diabetic I watch this with interest), they went from high fructose corn syrup to cane sugar, and with the diet sodas, from aspartame to stevia, I believe. The point of drinking soda (rather than water) is its sweetness. So they’re trying to balance sweet and healthy, I guess. 🤔
