    Same. The adults who raised me bought diet soda and always had a jug of fruit juice in the fridge for the kids.

    Why yes, they did always vote Republican. How did you know?

        No, but the ignorance of blindly believing the TV (when it says that aspartame and sugar-rich fruit juices are healthy beverage options for kids) sure is.

          I think that was just the 90s. “Health food stores” were like 90% vitamins/supplements and 10% terrible bread and bulk bins of brewers yeast and brown rice.

          My family went to the heath food store a lot, voted blue and marched against nestle and the gulf war. And we drank a lot of concentrated orange juice.

          We thought juice was heathy 🤷‍♀️
