    Interesting. I don't think they're going to help themselves sell pop this way LOL.

    Interesting. For people who know nothing about calories and nutrition, I think it's good!

    Most people that will look at that don't even track their daily calorie intake, nor do they have a clue what their TDEE is, so it's meaningless.

    I'm sure some people who drink CocaCola don't care about the calories but it might help them become more aware of exercises that they can do and possibly get them ton e more active

    I think it is a great idea to try and get people more aware of what they are putting into their bodies. But I feel like the people that would be interested in that knowledge already have it, so it is sort of an empty gesture.
