I think the better point here is that a lot of things have the potential to be dangerous if used too much.
A cheeseburger on its own is perfectly fine, five of them a week is a problem. Eight ounces of coffee a day is fine, more than twenty can be a problem. Eight ounces of soda is okay on its own but just because it's served in huge bottles does not mean you're supposed to drink it as your main source of liquid.
In the US, we have nutritional facts on most things but most people ignore them. If you care to, you can choose to limit your intake of substances to one serving.
