  • Yeah, I heard this on the radio today. I really don't see why it's the company's responsibility to make changes to their product to cut down on calories. Consumers need to take responsibility for what they put in their mouth. I don't drink pop (soda) but really.....isn't this a bit ridiculous?

    It's not. They're selling a product and responding to the concern people have regarding sugar drinks -- people know soda is bad for them and that's impacting sales. So they're trying to save their business and prevent government regulation in the process. Save your concern, they're not being held responsible for anything. They'll continue to offer huge amounts for the addicts, smaller more expensive sodas made with "real" sugar for the everything in moderation-ers and new flavored waters with microscopic amounts of whatever food deemed healthy that day for the gullible health conscious folks.

    It's a non-issue, just a company trying to change public perception about their product.

    One of the problems is the unaware - one of the many groups which enriches our human diversity. While there are a number of people who will read labels and pay attention to what they eat and drink, there are a larger number who blindly put anything into their mouths provided it tastes good. Another problem is the money-grubbers. The money-grubbers have few ethics and prey relentlessly and mercilessly on society by compromising on the well-being of the unaware. It is the unaware, that we need to protect. It is OK to say that people are adults and should be taking responsibility for themselves, and this is correct, but unfortunately, there are many who simply do not do so, either from lack of awareness or blind faith in the "system". In a caring society we protect these people from themselves. I like living in a caring society.

    One of the problems is the unaware - one of the many groups which enriches our human diversity. While there are a number of people who will read labels and pay attention to what they eat and drink, there are a larger number who blindly put anything into their mouths provided it tastes good. Another problem is the money-grubbers. The money-grubbers have few ethics and prey relentlessly and mercilessly on society by compromising on the well-being of the unaware. It is the unaware, that we need to protect. It is OK to say that people are adults and should be taking responsibility for themselves, and this is correct, but unfortunately, there are many who simply do not do so, either from lack of awareness or blind faith in the "system". In a caring society we protect these people from themselves. I like living in a caring society.

    Yeah, I gotta disagree…people are aware of what they are eating and drinking. It may even be the scale that tells them. People are adults, they are and should be allowed to make their OWN decisions. I don't think that makes us live in an uncaring society whatsoever. Because where would it end? Who should decide what these unaware people should be eating/drinking? When we start taking away peoples decisions to make their own choices we make it easier for them to take less and less responsibility for themselves. Then they would also have someone to blame if they still became overweight by over eating healthy foods.

    Or instead of coddling them like you would a 6 year old you could educated them. I may not have known how many calories were in a 44oz Mountain Dew that I drank with my Bacon Ultimate cheeseburger, large curly fry and 6 piece cheese sticks. I did, however, know that it was probably not a good idea to have that meal every day, but I did it anyway.

    More education, not regulation.
