Or to put it another way, Coke is no worse than fruit juice, so they've been lying to us all along. I love how they demonize one thing, then say it's no worse than the other thing, which SHOULD paint them as liars and completely dismiss anything they ever said, but they think we're supposed to respond by now believing BOTH things are bad, instead of neither, which would be logical. Arrogant asshats.
These guys had best be careful how many things they get so alarmed about. People still have to eat and drink, and if they object to everything, it's the same as not objecting to anything.
High fructose corn syrup is the culprit.
Scurvy!
For liberals its ALL about control.
They really don’t care about your health.
They get a thrill at CONTROLLING YOU and YOUR KIDS.
OTOH, they want to legalize marijuanna!
Here’s a lovely outcome from a Mom that was a “regular marijuann user”:
Report Finds N.Y. Wrong-Way Crash Mom Smoked Pot When Kids Were in Bed
Monday, November 09, 2009
WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. — State Police investigators said in a written report that a woman who killed seven people plus herself in a crash on the Taconic State Parkway was a regular marijuana user.
The report says Diane Schuler’s husband told police his wife “smoked marijuana once in a while to relieve the stress of work and the kids.”
Schuler’s sister-in-law told police she “didn’t believe in medicine and used marijuana to relax,” usually smoking after her children went to bed.

How republicans can win elections.
simply state
“I VIGOROUSLY oppose the Democrat Party’s support of the Chocolate Tax. The Democrat Party’s desire to tax all chocolate is just plain wrong!”
fake but accurate.
I always buy the Simply Orange. It’s pure 100% juice with no HCFS and it’s not from concentrate.
Same kind of idiots that turned health food stores into row after row of small white bottles of pills.
Ah, one of the bigwigs at Center for Science in the Public Interest, an organization which authored dietary alarmism such as "Movie Theater Popcorn: Kernels of Death" and "Chinese Food: The New Yellow Peril".
But, but, but...
We just went to all the trouble and expense of removing that nasty soda from school vending machines and replacing it with water and 100% fruit juice...
I have two orange trees in my back yard, and whenever enough oranges are ripe, I squeeze them for fresh juice. My only regret is that I didn’t plant two more trees.
"Aw geez! Not this $#%@ again!"
“there’s no need for any juice at all.”
Why do these skinny clip-haired Communist harpies prattle on and on about my “needs”? The only d@mned thing that matters one iota is my “wants”. Maybe i just WANT the orange juice.
I love the taste of orange juice and I’m not about to give it up for any food fascist. I’d also point out that a lot of kids will drink juice more readily than they will eat many fruits.
OTOH, I loathe so-called “juice drinks” that are mostly HFCS and flavoring rather than anything that ever came from an actual piece of fruit.
Just my dos centavos.
Yes, fruit juice contains simple carbs, which are digested quickly and go right into the bloodstream. After entering the bloodstream, any sugars not needed immediately for energy can go right into fat storage. Even without the HFCS, fructose is a simple carb, as I understand it. I also have heard, if you want fruit, you should just eat the fruit and not drink fruit juices.
Now, where this gets tricky is with different lifestyles. For sedentary folks with low muscle mass, I think this is good advice. However, if you are a stevedore or frame houses, etc., you are going to be in serious need of a steady stream of calories, so I can’t see a problem there with drinking fruit juice or a soft drink.
There the left wing goes again - blaming it on the juice!
Can we not rid ourselves of these damn nannies? Are we a nation of sissies? Are we a nation of stupid children?
Here’s a weight loss tip, get your fat butt off the couch and stop cramming food in your mouth!
You’d be amazed how well that works.
These idiots seem to have forgotten that these juices contain vitamin C and considerable potassium. Those of us on certain blood pressure medications need a daily glass of juice to prevent potassium depletion. What about our one most benevolent government whose guidelines say we need daily fruit...what would be the differences between eating an orange and drinking its juice with the pulp?
