The most out of touch bullshit I ever saw was that post. Nobody over the age of 25 who isn’t morbidly obese still drinks coke enough to give a shit about what kind of sugar they use. We want the Epstein shit you promised you pedophile goof ass chud.
I am in my 30s, a healthy weight, and cane sugar is much better than HFCS, for both flavor and health reasons.
So is water. If you’re drinking enough soda for it to matter you’re drinking too much soda.
“This thing isn’t perfect, thus we should give up completely and abandon all standards” ok buddy
That’s quite a lot to get out of my comment. I am nearly 100% on the wagon of repair but fuck, people’s soda habits are getting more and more vile to me, that shit’s awful in any even moderate quantity and Coke is one I just can’t drink anymore.
I’m over 25 and am not obese. I would rather enjoy getting to have real sugar coke. Can’t find the Mexican bottles being sold too often.
A broken clock is still right twice a day. Trump getting sodas swapped to real sugar is a favorable outcome.
It’s also not something he needs to be worried about. It’s like an abusive stepfather taking you to get ice cream. Yeah sure ice cream is nice or whatever but there are clearly more important things to be doing and worrying about
Well most of the other things he wants to be focused on fuck us over, so if he spends any time putting into half useless bullshit it means I’m just glad he’s spending even a moments less time on anything else.
I mean don’t get me wrong, it’s a good start, but maybe we should focus on getting corn syrup out of things like fucking bread first. I was kind of hoping RFK would focus more on this aspect of his dementia and less on the vaccine and autism stupidity. But I should have known it was going to be the stupidest possible outcome.
Its blatantly contemptuous but not ‘out of touch’. His base would be hooting over this if they weren’t pissed at him over Epstein.
American coca cola tastes vile even if you drink it once in your life.
The most American drink ever
I thought that was Mountain Dew, which was originally produced as a whiskey mixer in Appalachia, looks like battery acid, and I’m pretty sure made my piss green once.
I tried it once (I’m on a different side of the planet basically), default flavor, and it was so mid. I don’t understand how they got so big.
Massive caffeine content and acquired taste, also the additional flavors are mostly good.
This will go well with his tariff plan considering the US imports 40% of its cane sugar currently, and this would send demand through the roof.
Oh and the countries it’s imported from are some of the top tariff countries.
Nothing makes sense…
Dr Pepper needs fixing. You could still import Classic Coke from the UK.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION IN THIS MATTER.

Am I missing something about coke, like a recent rant on Shitter? Pretty weak meme if there’s nothing besides the fact that he eats and drinks crap.
Wow, one of maybe two things I agree with in this administration (the other being removing artificial food dyes from food). Broken clock or something.
Can’t wait to not need to buy the glass bottle version of coke for the cane sugar and also hopefully have him straight up lose half his base over the Epstein denial! Fingers crossed!
I had, cheers!
He announced hes asking them to bring back real sugar in coke
:facepalm:
Thanks for the update I guess lol
I dunno, but that is one of the most punchable faces in history.
Anything to distract from the previous mess-up.
The US gets half its sugar from sugar beets.
This is fuckin stupid.
Beet sugar is the only Christian sugar. I don’t mess with heathen palm, cane or corn.
Cane sugar is catholic, beet sugar is protestant, corn sugar is mormon.
Oh shit! I’ve been living in sin
Only would happen if he slashes corn subsidies which would be way dumber than the tariffs he first proposed.
Trump and his friends have been buy cane futures. He doesn’t give a shit about Americans
Why? Slashing the corn subsidies would be good.
Many of food staples cannot be produced at a profit without subsidies, corn in particular. Since all of our farms are for profit farmers will destroy their crops Grapes Of Wrath style to drive up prices.
Why do you think they would need a subsidy in order to be profitable?
I haven’t read the Grapes of Wrath - wouldn’t “defecting” farmers who didn’t destroy their crops have an advantage?
They currently do need subsidies to be profitable. Farmers destroying their own crops to raise prices is a well documented historical fact and it still happens today particularly when it comes to livestock. This is not my abstract conjecture.
But in the examples I’m familiar with, they do it because of regulation or collusion, not because of a lack of subsidies.
You’re either citing some failed new deal policy or various libertarian myths that the government still pays farmers to destroy their crops.
When there is such a supply is too high and the demand is too low, farmers will destroy their own crops instead of taking them to market. This is because the price of the crop is lower than the price of actually taking it to market. This is bad for two reasons:
1 There could still be a real “demand” for the product just not an “economic” demand. IE people don’t have the money to pay for the crop such as in the Great Depression or the COVID pandemic.
2 Food is the primary good you want as abundant as possible in any economy at the lowest prices. Other such goods are steel, energy, railway transport, ie goods that other markets depend on. That runs contrary to the interests of the producers of those goods. They want to hit the sweet spot where profit is highest. The two main solutions for this are subsidies or nationalization. For example, China has nationalized steel production and rail transport which they intentionally operate at a loss for the benefit of the rest of the economy.
