Umm, I guess ylu have never seen a black person. Weird. Or white families that load up on Gatorade for their kids

Coke being this boogie man while kids chug Gatorade and fruit punch is hilarious


Preach.

You’re pretty astute when you’re not discussing vaccines.

"I'll have a kids meal"

You'll get kids meal.

"I'll have a kids meal but with a coke"

You will get a kids meal with a coke.

This is stupid virtue signaling which won't improve health for a single child.

I know BMI is a bad measuring tool


It is not. It is not "perfect", but the "athletic" ( ) types who rail against it are typically fat AF.

If you're not playing offensive line or lifting weights/bodybuilding competitively, get your BMI under 30 and under 25 if possible, fatty.

I'm not sure this ordinance would win a law suit challending governments right to tell a parent what hey can buy their kid in a restaurant.

Will be interesting to see if someone takes them to court over their ordinance. Aeems to me if you can buy your kid a coke at the 7-11 store or Krogers, then they can't regulate your buying them one at McDonalds.

They aren't stopping parents from buying their kid a soft drink. They are just saying that you can't have a soft drink as the included beverage when purchasing a kid's meal. If the parent wants to order a soft drink as a standalone item that isn't included with the kid's meal, they are more than welcome to do that

This is useless if the surrounding parishes don’t follow suit…

Yes, and for junior, we will have the 6-inch fried oyster po-boy, dressed, fries with seven packets of ketchup, and 30 grams of sugar in our healthy apple juice.

Based on her pic, looks like she stopped being "obese" about 100 pounds ago. Would love to hear some suggested replacement terms from her

That's progressivism in a nutshell. Look how prohibition turned out.

Do you think a glass of Pepsi is healthier than a glass of orange juice?

My kid doesn't like sodas. She already prefers water.

How long before CPS is summoned to take away your kinds because you let them have a sugary drink?
