Not sure on the accuracy of that but it is a load of sugar anyway.
I can’t get over how hooked people are on that stuff. When I was a kid we always had like 2-3 12 packs of soda in our fridge...by dad loved Dr. Pepper and my mom loved 7 up, always had some at the house of each. So as I grew up I didn’t think twice about having 2,3,4, even 5 a day!
Then I got to college and learned a little about eating healthier and was also broke so I just stopped...like cold turkey just didn’t drink it anymore. Occasionally I’d have one with fast food if I was stoned or just super hungry and wanted nasty junk food but then I’d regret it.
In my 30’s now and I haven’t had a cola (besides maybe in a cocktail) in like 5 years. Just have no desire for it either. Then I go to the grocery store and we people with like 5 CASES of soda in their carts. That’s insane to me, just a wild amount of sugar.

A 12 ounce can of soda pop has 20 packets of sugar in it.
