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.

American coca cola tastes vile even if you drink it once in your life.

[-] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 2 points 1 week ago

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.

[-] real_squids@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 week ago

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.

[-] sudo@programming.dev 2 points 1 week ago

Its blatantly contemptuous but not 'out of touch'. His base would be hooting over this if they weren't pissed at him over Epstein.

[-] blockheadjt@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 week ago

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

[-] Soup@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

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.

[-] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 week ago

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

[-] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 week ago

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.

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.

I had, cheers!

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.

[-] Stillwater@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

He announced hes asking them to bring back real sugar in coke

[-] 0li0li@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

:facepalm:

Thanks for the update I guess lol

[-] AlternatePersonMan@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

I dunno, but that is one of the most punchable faces in history.

[-] resipsaloquitur@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION IN THIS MATTER.

[-] skozzii@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 week ago

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...

[-] sudo@programming.dev 1 points 1 week ago

Only would happen if he slashes corn subsidies which would be way dumber than the tariffs he first proposed.

[-] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 0 points 1 week ago

Why? Slashing the corn subsidies would be good.

[-] sudo@programming.dev 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

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.

[-] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago

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?

[-] sudo@programming.dev 1 points 1 week ago

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.

[-] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

But in the examples I'm familiar with, they do it because of regulation or collusion, not because of a lack of subsidies.

[-] Deflated0ne@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

The US gets half its sugar from sugar beets.

This is fuckin stupid.

[-] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 1 points 1 week ago

Dr Pepper needs fixing. You could still import Classic Coke from the UK.
