These are the same kind of vague, hand wavy distractions that would have been used to excuse or muddy the waters around tobacco 30 years ago. "Probably just stress" is not an excuse that explains the systemic health problems that come from excess sugar.
- dylan604 2y agoHas bigSugar been tweaking the formula of the additives used to make the product more addicting? Let’s not forget how heinous bigTobacco behaved. Refining corn into high fructose corn syrup still isn’t the same to me, but their lobbying campaigning is the same. If it comes out that they have knowledge of adverse effects of their product and still pushed that hard, then they should be dealt with in the harshest of punishment.

The important thing now is that this is accepted and understood instead of people casting doubt like "maybe it's just stress".
