Toss a big warning from the Surgeon General on there. People are blind to it now, but when they first did it for cigarettes most people weren't aware of the severity of related health issues.
We need a big "soda can make you obese and diabetic" campaign — we haven't even begun to approach the level of fervor that cut down on smoking... and we're fatter and unhealthier than ever.
I generally agree that bans go too far, but I love publicly funded advocacy.
- nikolay 5y agoSimilarly to cigarettes, they need to show diabetics with amputated legs and blind ones. People always think diabetes is a benign condition, which is easy to manage. But tell them that many scientists call it "accelerated aging" today or that it can lead to cancer, and they will take it more seriously.
