The new California regulation would meant Coke and Pepsi could still sell their products but those products would have had to have a cancer warning on them similar to the cancer warning on a pack of cigerettes. They're both changing their formulas nation wide to avoid putting the cancer warning on their cans.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.

Kids aren't obese from eating mechanically separated meats, or food that's been treated with ammonia to kill bacteria. Kids are obese because they drink soda instead of water, eat junk food at every meal, and never do anything more physical than turning on their X-boxes.

Originally posted by Dinner View PostApparently the artificial coloring can cause cancer. I know California recently set new regulations wrt the coloring compound found in both Coke and Pepsi requiring the levels to be 1/5th the current level; this means both Coke and Pepsi had to change their formula to reduce the amount of this cancer causing compound in their formula.

So the "new" formula will make coke FDA compliant and compliant with CA regs?
Awesome. There's nothing wrong with it now and should be perfectly acceptable for school children."I have never killed a man, but I have read many obituaries with great pleasure." - Clarence Darrow

The problem is the parents. Parents could provide healthier lunches to students that cost less than the crap the schools' dish out.“As a lifelong member of the Columbia Business School community, I adhere to the principles of truth, integrity, and respect. I will not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do.”

Looks to me like an abdication of responsibility all around. The parents can't (or won't) provide healthy lunches for their children and school officials (with consent of parents) feed crap in school lunches.
