I got a solution for you, and it’s free: Drink water.
That's not really a solution at all. You don't order a soda with your lunch because you think "I'm so dehydrated", you order a soda because you think "This will taste nice". People are allowed to want flavor.
Flavor comes from my steak and my bacon Brussels sprouts, not my beverage.
And actually sodas don’t “taste nice”. Go keto for a few months and break that sugar addiction. The next time you try a soda you’ll realize they’re all sickeningly sweet and not fit for human consumption.
Uh-huh, but that's ignoring the sugar-free options the other user said. I like flavored drinks with my food, i drink enough water throughout the rest of the day.
Sorry, bacon is carcinogenic and not fit for human consumption so we're banning that too.
I can always cure and smoke my own pork belly, should the govt decide I can’t get it at a store…. Just like someone can take sugar and other garbage and put it into their water should they so desire.
I'm sorry you're getting downvoted for speaking the truth. It's frightening how much sugar is in our diet.
Also, water is not free. It’s normally provided at no cost to the consumer in a restaurant, but it isn’t free.
Thanks, Nestle rep!
All they're saying is that water treatment costs money. Not that you should buy nestle stolen and bottled water...
It's much less than a cent per litre anywhere in the US, the quantities used for drinking are essentially free
