Millions of people are sensitive, some even deathly allergic to very common foodstuffs. This used to be a place where there was room for some personal responsibility. If a food or beverage gave you problems, you would avoid it in the future. Now you try to project your personal preferences in food and beverage onto the entire nation. No thank you.

Actually I was stating common sense facts so spare me the preaching. At no time was I advocating banning the product. Proof and point: as of September 1st all Cleveland Clinics in US will stop hiring smokers. Do I think smoking is dangerous? Absolutely! But it's legal and I do not find it fair from CC to take such drastic measures. Where do we stop? Chocolate? Aspartame? Butter?

However, in your self-righteous rush to prove a nonexistent point you made an assumption about me and my posts (clearly without reading them!). This does not change reality of the fact that we are #1 in the world when it comes to obesity and I am not blaming the food industry. It's a personal choice which we make every single day in our life. So get a grip of yourself, drink all the diet soda you want and be positive.
