idk, fat tax / criminalisation seems very big government and against individual determinism.
Then again, it is important to protect dignity and human welfare - if abuse of humans is criminalised, why does self-abuse get a freepass?
Personally, I struggle to find sweetners I am happy with. This isn't a problem for me as I drink water, my hot drinks unsweetened and avoid sodas.
However, on the rare occasional I want a soda, perhaps I am treating myself to some spirits n coke, I'd rather it was full sugar and unsweetened. It is a bid sad my enjoyment of an occasional treat is collateral to people who chug 5+ litres of sugar solution a day. Bless them.
