I do better by avoiding sodas altogether... it's sugar in a bottle, no thanks.

My sister doesn't give her kids cola because of the sugar. It just has slightly more than bought orange juice and aplle juice and all that shit.

You get juices with no added sugar nowadays

That's still a bunch of sugar with no fiber from the actual fruit to offset it.

That's a different matter altogether. Just saying coke doesn't have "slightly" more but a lot more sugar
