Comment on The price of soda in 2017
raze2012@lemmy.world 1 day agoFor a 12 oz/300ml? Yeah, that gets into crazy territory.
But we’re in crazy land right now. My local Walmart? 8.50 for a 12 pack. 70 cents a can, so not full loony. But a far cry from this picture a decade ago with under 20 cents a can.

Part of that is the power of government subsidized high fructose corn syrup, yeah. It’s in a lot of American food and makes a huge difference in pricing healthy vs highly processed foods.

Awful food quality, too much of it, along with lack of exercise.
