Obviously, anyone of any profession is influenced by their life experiences. To think otherwise is naive....And since I practice what I preach I have actual experience with the largest food bank in the United States since I have volunteered there each of the last 5 years. And you know what? You can get soda there. You know why, b/c it was donated. The government isn't providing it, people are. I bring whatever I can bring when I go, but I can't understand wanting to donate something unhealthy to those in need.
I am not calling you stupid because you disagree with me. I'm calling you stupid because most of your responses are stupid.

I would prefer that I choose what life experiences that I wish to draw from as opposed to you making assumptions based on your version of my life experiences.

Hopefully you didn't get injured patting yourself on the back for your noble charity work.

And acting as though soda is heroin just makes your argument even weaker. Soda has been around for 100 years. The fact that kids get less exercise than ever probably has far more to do with the issues that we are experiencing than simply drinking soda. Since we are drawing on personal experience, I eat less than I did 10 years ago but since I am not doing as much physical work as I did then plus the effects of aging I am now considered obese. And I drink diet.

Wrong on soda's history of course. Corn Syrup is not 100 years old. It is the fake sugars that are the bigger issue.

Ironically, sugar free products often raise blood sugar as well.
