Comment on Extend success of UK sugar tax to cakes, biscuits and chocolate, experts urge
Patch@feddit.uk 4 weeks agoIt always seemed weird to me that most companies just discontinued their traditional sugary variety and went diet only, instead of having a diet version and the sugary version just at a higher price.
The death of original Irn Bru is a bit of a tragedy, and I’m not even sure what the point of low sugar Lucozade is supposed to be.

Hilariously lucozade was originally used for exatly what the new gluco shots given buy the NHS were.
Its original name was glucoaid. And it was used in hospitals in the 50s and 60s to give energy to paiteints.
Back in the 80s when I was diagnosed Lucozade was what we were recomended to keep for the job. But there was so much better tasting stuff. I never got into it.
