You can't drink soda in public places. Public places, of course, includes private property that is publicly accessible.

Now the soda drinkers can line up on the sidewalks with the smokers and all have yellow teeth together.

Dr. Pepper can stand in as the new Joe Camel.

I am hooked on Dublin Dr. Pepper (made with real Imperial Cane Sugar). It tastes way better than the corn syrup chemical tasting Dr. Pepper.

They better stay away from my DP.

It would be nice if fast food restaurants allowed a salad and a 100% juice or milk with their "meals" instead of fries and a cola. It would also be nice if real yogurts, juice, fresh fruit, and health bars (instead of the sugared junk that is often provided in their name) were in snack machines.

Beyond that, people, including children, should be allowed to choose. They're old enough to buy their own snacks, they should be old enough to choose foods themselves. But it really isn't fair when the only "choices" cause diabetes, obesity and heart disease.

And, these diseases are big business for the pharmaceutical industry. We all pay in the long run.
