But no limit on how many you can buy and not all places are covered by the law.

Can’t you get a 16oz soda if you get a free condom or a city funded abortion?

Just sell 16oz of beverage in a 40oz cup with a small bag of ice.

Same thing they were selling before, just some assembly required.

Everyone involved in proposing, enacting and enforcing this policy should be immediately laid off, as it is evident their time is spent wasting the taxpayers’ money.

This is what every liberal does, kids can’t read and they waste time and resources on liberal crap.

I wonder if our forefathers have spun themselves to China yet?

In this case, it’s fortunate NYC is in an electorally lost state... otherwise Bloomberg would be an embarrassment.

Reading this story made me thirsty so I ran out and got 64 a ounce big gulp.

I think if I owned a business this effected, I’d make sure the drinks were 15.9 oz, or sell two 8 oz drinks with a free, 16 oz empty cup. And I confess. I bought a dwarf peach tree counting on global cooling because the temperatures are too high where I live for it to produce fruit... yet. Maybe next year. My middle finger to the global warming crap.

Does NYC tax sodas? Because if it does, the last laugh is Bloomburg’s when folks simply start purchasing two sodas instead of one. The city is now collecting double the tax revenue on sodas!

Next we’ll have a soda speakeasy in every neighborhood.

“Who sent you?”
“Joey Plugs”
“Come on in.”

They think 11 is old enough and mature enough for sex, but not for soda

About 500 people, with 2 liter, sugary soft drinks...soak the streets with the soda all around the city hall. If the flies and ants don’t get them, the stickyness will.

I’m glad Bloomie realizes his people can’t think for themselves when it comes to nutrition.

Unfortunately I’m afraid he will still let them vote.....

“New York City’s Board of Health approved Mayor Michael Bloomber’s plan to ban large sugary drinks. The proposal was approved in a 8-0 vote.”

That’s all it takes for the nanny statists to impose its will on 8 million people. 8 unelected bureaucrats.
