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

The commercial says: we all need to listen to mom. Then it "brags" that they have already come up with the idea of smaller servings....is that brilliant idea? Or do they need to go back to the drawing board? Smaller servings--less sugar! (Ta-da!) 😬

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.
