No matter how much smoke you blow and how much you try to hide your gross misinterpretation of a simple sentence, here is where you went wrong:
“Ah, do you even know the difference between “10 - 40 or more”, and “10-40 more”?”
Straight from your sentence and mine. Go find you high school English teacher and ask him or her to diagram the two full sentences for you and explain to you what they mean.
Try again:
“10 - 40 or more”
and
“10-40 more”
Can you yet see the difference? And the full sentence you wrote makes it clear you completely misinterpreted my post.
Wow, lots of science and nutrition info in this post. LOL!
I guess some need to study the sentences again:
“Yes, everything isn’t known in this area, but a good bit is known. And it’s corn syrup giving people the equivalent of 10 - 40 or more teaspoons of sugar (depending on size) in their soft drinks.”
Here is your response to that in your #165:
“How does that work exactly? 10-40 more teaspoons of sugar are consumed when you use corn syrup to sweeten a drink instead of sugar?”
I mention the amount of corn syrup in a soft drink (depending on size) as being equal to 10 - 40 or more teaspoons of sugar.
Then, you make the ridiculous assertion that I said that “10-40 more teaspoons of sugar are consumed when you use corn syrup to sweeten a drink instead of sugar.”
So, here perhaps we’ve identified another problem. Do you know what the word “equivalent” means. If you did, you’d never have made the mistake you made.
As used, equivalent meant the amount of corn syrup in various sizes of soft drinks was equal to 10 - 40 or more teaspoons of sugar. And that’s all it meant.
How did you leap from “equivalent” to “10-40 more”?
Again, your ridiculous misinterpretation:
“How does that work exactly? 10-40 more teaspoons of sugar are consumed when you use corn syrup to sweeten a drink instead of sugar?”
I know Toddsterpatriot from other discussions. I don’t care how many join you in your ridiculous refusal to admit your glaring mistake in interpreting what a simple sentence means.
Look up “equivalent” in your online dictionary. That should help you.
