Coke has come up with a way to solve America’s obesity epidemic: smaller cans of soda. So, instead of slugging down 155 calories, you’ll get only 90 calories in a 7.5 oz can. Hooray, our problems are solved!
Face it, if you’re slugging down a Coke, you’re not worried about calories. I’m all for portion control, but how about switching to diet soda, instead? Or, (gasp!) water?
The beverage companies have been under attack as a major contributor to America’s bulging waistlines. So, it’s not surprising to see them try to shake things up a bit. But, in our bigger-is-better-and-supersize-it-please society, do we think folks will buy mini-Coke when regular-size Coke is still available?
