    If anyone is manufacturing anything, it is the busy bodies that manufacture one "crisis" after another in order to justify their insatiable desire to control the rest of us. They call salt and sugar "chemicals" in order to alarm the public, because no one likes "chemicals" being added to their food and drink. Create enough fear and you can get government to control our diets. The United States, at one time a free country, has been taken over by fanatics and control freaks who believe they are so morally and intellectually superior to everyone else that they must decide what the rest of us may eat and drink because we are so stupid we can't be allowed to make these decisions for ourselves. They just can't stomach the idea of a free people going about their business without their "help."

    When Pepsi, Coke and other soft drink makers started selling their drinks, they of course did not want to peddle cancer causing products. Science and chemistry advances over the years has found all sorts of bad things in food and other things we put into our system. It's the good companies who will quickly admit their errors and change their product to be more healthful. After a heavy workout as a kid, I'd run down to the local candy store for a cold Pepsi. If they do change the formula, I sure hope it tastes as good.

    They keep talking about the sugar content in drinks, but in actual fact it is the Fructose corn syrup that is the problem. Before the introduction of corn syrup, ordinary sugar only was used and there was not a problem of obesity in those days. Fructose corn syrup can not be utilised in the human body the same as a natural cane sugar.
