Why is it trivial to calculate nutritional inoformation for beverages? In the United States, on average, 21% of our calories are consumed from beverages [1]. I know some people that just drink water, so that means there are others who are consuming probably greater than 1/4 of their calories from beverages. There is clearly a problem, in the USA, of people consuming too many calories from beverages, and it is not trivial. I think this is a good step, but there are a few ways it may be missing the mark (like why not a set of mugs that I can change the user settings of based on who in my family or friends grabbed the cup out of the cupboard.)
