Fatties of reddit :marseyraging: over a potential soda tax

>Id like to quote I think Aubrey "is there anything middle class people love more than telling poor people mcdonalds is bad for them?" thats what I feel like the soda tax is.

Because eating dogshit food that cost more then real food from grocery store would actually help out their financial situation.

>I'd like to learn more about the reasons against soda taxes

Me too, but because I literally don't understand how this would be a negative whatsoever.

>Boston? I just saw they're considering it and got immediately bummed out. There's already so much anti-fat sentiment here.

It's like they are almost self aware to see the connection that caring about soda = bring fat

I have a dream where obesity is treated like smoking was. Ad campaigns. School campaigns. Sin taxes. Have you bought a pack of cigarettes in a blue city in a red state? It's like $40.

It's funny how the "progressive" thing for restaurant to do now is to not include calories for their food, which is annoying as frick since I count my calories and I don't know if the pasta you served is 600 calories or you slathered it in butter and made it 1100 calories

No decent restaurant has ever listed calories

Well yeah, but I don't ever eat out on my own time, only when I'm dragged someplace. So I'm not talking about nice local places.

For most chains it was standard to include calories, but recently millennial-ran chains have gotten rid of it even though it was the standard because showing calories "discourages" them from ording products. But they run it under the guise of "this is being inclusive to people with eating disorders"

By law they theoretically have to be able to tell you still. Calculating all the stupid nutrition facts for the once a year some butthole would ask about it was the worst part of being in charge of a kitchen.
