Are we so mindless???

this morning i woke up to find this story

on yahoo news. okay i get that coke makes these claims(as MANY

INFOMERCIALS do promoting their crap makes better health) but come on.

IF YOU READ then you already knew that their Vitamin Water contained a

ton of sugar and the whole bottle is actually 2 1/2 servings NOT one.

but ppl are just going to suck money out of anything they can by suing

coke for their claims. okay i knew for awhile the vitamin water wasn't

really the healthiest thing on the market so i chose not to buy it!

that's all, i was smart to read the label(as with most foods) and learn

it wasn't going to work and left it at that. this is a matter of

personal responsibility. whenever lawsuits arise it falls on consumers

in the way of cost of product, and that cost will usually go UP.this

is exactly what i find wrong with the world, we have lost total responsibility for anything ourselves and just blame something else and

sue the pants off them(from soda products to doctors). sometimes there

is a need and good reason to sue but most of the time its crap. just

like ppl who eat mcdonald's 3 times a day then sues mcdonald's b/c they

got fat. HELLO!!!! is anybody home???!!!!!!!i know what my

issues are and there really is nobody to blame but me. even then i try

not to blame to harshly b/c i am human and all i need is the proper

mindset to get back to a healthier weight. i am not going to blame any

food company b/c ME MYSELF AND I overate their food. ME MYSELF AND I

have to learn restraint and portion control, and if ME MYSELF AND I

can't do that,then ME MYSELF AND I shouldn't have it. but i won't be so

mindless to jump on a claim ANY company makes.if they are

willing to sue coke, then we should sue a bunch of this infomercials

b/c their exercise crap rarely work. and not everybody gets the same

results so i am mad i didn't look like christie brinkely after working

out on a total gym. come on folks lets all just support each other and

learn some responsibility for ourselves and stop blaming the companies.

if we just not buy their products they will stop promoting them.

remember they are just doing their jobs to push the stuff that they

learn everybody likes or what sells. if we change our ways they will

change theirs too. lets think on that for awhile.

Good point, Kassia. I saw the story too. The amount of sugar alone

is enough to make me stay away from that stuff.

Hi Kassia,

I couldn't agree more - and I do agree that one of the biggest problems in the world right now is a lack of personal responsibility. And, you're right - if the consumer doesn't buy the product then the product won't sell and the manufacturer will stop making it.

Thanks for letting me vent, too!Donna
