Why is my country so cucked? Can't even drink a fucking soda without them trying to ban it anymore.
I import them from USA because of the better flavors anyways but how long until they ban that? Starting to feel like I live in fucking china or someshit.
Sick of the cameras and person details being taken too. H E L P M E.

“”Great”” Britain is dead, a conservative revolution in America is literally the only hope left for the free West
We have that tax in some citys in the us. Trying to curb the amount of money we spend on nig nog healthcare. Think there is also some tax in san francisco on menthol cigarettes because blacks love them.
oi do you have a complain license, what youre doing is illegal if you dont have one
Sugar-free soda, when you can find it here, costs like 20-40% more than regular full-sugar. Madness.
lmao I don't do any of those things anyways because TV is trash. It's just giving NPCs their opinions so they don't have to think for themselves.
That makes even less sense in america because you pay for your own healthcare. By the way the NHS haven't done shit for me at all, I've definitely given them more money back than I've recieved in services.
Every time I go there with a problem they tell me they won't cover it and I have to go private. Why the fuck are they taking my money then and I can't opt out?
Tired of this shit.
Do you have melon soda? I miss that shit from when I was in japan.
Speaking of Japan, they have some weird TV license people too. I kept getting bills from them but I threw them in the trash every time lmao. Nothing bad happened, 1 and a half years.
Get a soda stream and craft your own. You'll probably have to pay for a loicense lol.
Stop drinking that garbage
It's because you need a license for that soda, you cheeky wanker
I live in the U.S. and we have them in my area to, it's fucking retarded.
Easier to just import it for now. American food colorings are illegal too so I couldn't even source the ingredients without importing.
Problem is I think they're going to crack down on importing too because there are stores everywhere tailored towards this now, in London at least.
What food color is illegal? What on earth for? It'd still taste the same even if it didn't have the right color at least.
>I import them from USA because of the better flavors
USA soda is full of high fructose corn syrup, they barely use real sugar m8
Stop forcing other people to live the way you want. Give me freedom and give me death.
i have always found it strange that water costs more than soda here.
There are quite a few things used in food in the US that are banned elsewhere
en.wikipedia.org
>The U.S. National Institutes of Health report that BHA is reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen based on evidence of carcinogenicity in experimental animals.
There any hard numbers that we get cancers at a higher rate than places that banned these substances?
I think it's EU laws or something. Loads of shit is illegal. Food police will get you.
The amount of sugar is low enough in british versions now that they barely taste sweet. The carbon dioxide's bitterness offsets it too much. The corn syrup is at least better.
I also like the corn syrup for some reason, doesn't make my teeth feel fuzzy.
No studies on humans as far as I know

>I also like the corn syrup for some reason,
HFCS is almost certainly worse for you than sugar
>Sugar tax
Thank god Monster white is sugarless.
Kinda scary how tight a grip they have on so many aspects of your life over there. Kind of afraid we'll end up the same eventually if the leftist fascists have their way.
it's not where I live, at least. Unless you compare Fiji water to like, 99c faygo or something
you're not a juggalo are you?
It's just refined carbohydrate. As long as you don't have another related medical condition and it's not causing you overweightness due to excess consumption there's no problems.
Besides, I don't really care. This was never about it being good for me.
Why are you drinking soda? It's unhealthy. Your country actually cares about your health and prevents you from consuming obviously unhealthy shit and you're complaining?
You gotta fucking fight it dude, otherwise you'll end up like us here. At least you have the constitution on your side so hopefully shit can't go too far wrong.
Yeah every fucking can or bottle I see now is sugar-free trash. Sometimes they try and hide it too with near hidden labels actually mentioning they're sugar-free.
Useless kikes, I have to provide ID to buy a can of Boost.
>why is my country trying to combat childhood obesity? Lmao totally cucked
>I’m going to moan about my sugary drink addiction and totally ignore the fact sugary drinks like coke fuck your teeth up and have serious long term effects on children.
OP you’re smelly, fat and retarded. Drink some bottled water.
No worries California has our back.
>It's unhealthy
Life is the worst illness. It has a 100% mortality rate.
>I have to provide ID to buy a can of Boost.
That's something that some supermarkets do, not actually law or anything
Dude when I got ID'd for a can of red bull I literally was mindblown at how retarded this country has gotten.
Yeah I vote and donate to anti nanny state organizations but I'm small fry, shit not even discsrnable with an electron microscope when compared to people like soros. Don't have a lot of faith for our long term prospects.
>Let's just ban everything that's dangerous to protect people from themselves
>IT'S FOR YOUR OWN GOOD
OP: Do Soda water + cola or whatever flavor. I'm in the USA, I never buy sodas anymore. My fridge has sodastream & I love it. But, it's just as easy to buy FLAVORED SYRUP + plain fizzy water!!! I love MONIN's cola syrup.
First, that is not law. Second, energy drinks are terrible for young kids, like really bad, so its not that crazy.
>sugar tax
shits going full circle, if you do revolt i want my marbles back where they belong
Why don't you kill yourself then you retarded bong?
But it is a noticeable change showing the direction our society is headed.
Fuck commiefornia. My gf wants to move there or Seattle and I'm hell fucking no to either. Seattle has a fucking statue of Lenin. Of Lenin!
There should not be a sugar tax. The taxes would only be wasted anyway for one stupid project or another.
Rather there should be less healthcare for fat and unhealthy people.
Actually encourage people to be healthy instead of just taking money from them.
No its not, there is nothing wrong with restricting childrens access to high caffiene energy drinks
Protecting people from themselves because most people cannot do it independently. There’s too many fuckwit parents in this country who wouldn’t think twice about giving fizzy drinks to their 6-14yo. Think about the children user.
>Doesn't say the energy drink is an actual factor in the death in any way
A quick google shows you would have to pound over 53 cans of monster to kill a 125lb human. You'd probably vomit after the fifth one anyways.
Nice source bro, really not fucking retarded at all. Go drink 55 cans of monster
>leftist fascists
>"DURRRRRRRRR DEY R DA WEEL FASHEESTS!"
Learn what words mean before you use them you bumbling retard.
The joke is it's true. Seems like Britain took the next logical step and bans things on the list.
I used to be OK with only warnings but it seems only bans work if you actually want to stop corporations from poisoning their products and consumers from buying them. Our FDA is a joke.
>didn't drink any water whole day on the beach in mexico
That's not related to the energy drinks at all, that's just getting dehydrated like a retard.
fuck off
Well that makes sense. While I was in vacation there I wondered why a soda was way more than a beer. Some pubs I could get two beers for the price of one soda. Pretty good deal but I don't drink alcohol.
Why don't you actually learn instead of regurgitating your programming?
>While I was in vacation there I wondered why a soda was way more than a beer
because beer and booze is dirtcheap in the UK (compared to the rest of western Europe)
If I want to consume a possibly cancer causing product it is my right to do so. I don't need anyone to hold my hand.
>QUICK SOMEONE IS LETTING THEIR 14 YEAR OLD DRINK A SODA
>SOUND THE ALARM, QUICK
british left wing faggots, literally taking candy from babies
Yes but are you going to research every product you buy to see if it contains anything hazardous?
Why don't you just get rid of the FDA?
>if you don't look at every ingredient on everything you buy and sort it through a database you deserve cancer
I actually follow a very strict dietary regimen and I actually do research all the ingredients in products I buy. I'm totally unconcerned with food coloring and preservatives.
It's your right but it's bloody stupid for you to think that you're entitled not to pay the costs for it. Perhaps you should be sentenced to hard labor for every day your pop addiction takes you out of the workforce.
There's a happy medium with everything dumbass. Stop taking it to extremes.
Fat people ruin it for everyone, soon it'll be radical political opinions wont be allowed and you'll only be allowed to vote on "normal" politics
I am not talking about sounding an alarm every time a kid is spotted with a red bull, I’m saying it’s an effective preventative of childhood obesity. I get the feeling I’m talking to someone on the other end of the bell curve here.
>I actually do research all the ingredients in products I buy.
Good for you but its unrealistic to expect everyone to do this
Interesting it didn't work out for me but I can see how that is appealing to some people. I just ended up drinking tea for every meal. Every once in a while I'd get a coke. I like how each place I went put fruit in their sodas.
How about educating parents so they can make a good choice for their children rather than just blanket banning a substance because some retards can't use it in moderation?
Some kids parents probably feed them pizza every night too do we ban pizza? What if all they give them is chicken nuggets and no vegetables at all? Do we take their money and force them to buy vegetables and ban chicken nuggets?
You can't dictate what people do like this and ban shit, you've got to educate people and let them actually make the right decision on their own.
You are costing everyone a fortune in Heath Care £$£$£$£$£, you chubby fuck.
I'm not sure how you're jumping to this conclusion.
Well they should. Why would people introduce anything into their bodies not knowing exactly what's going in? I know the answer laziness, but maybe if we educated better on the topic that'd change.
Start drinking stuff with no sugar. The regular Lipton ice tea hardly has any sugar anymore.
Hey man I agree, but can't speak our minds, eat what we want, can't drink on the street, we jail people for weed, we hand out 500 pound benefits to people with IBS, this shit needs sorted, but we wont get acknowledged because we arent the norm anymore
>How about educating parents so they can make a good choice for their children rather than just blanket banning a substance because some retards can't use it in moderation?
Because they won't. They won't care, they won't listen, they're busy with something important or unimportant.
There was TONS of education about tobacco, still is, and look how that has worked out: billions and billions and billions in health care costs added to everyone's taxes.
End socialized healthcare
Problem solved
>I am not talking about sounding an alarm every time a kid is spotted with a red bull, I’m saying it’s an effective preventative
So you are talking about that. Why are you statist cucks so deranged in your two-faced opinions? Don't act like you want people to have freedom of choice while at the same time banning fucker sugary drinks because parents might give them to their kids. I want to kill every single one of you bootlicking government supporting niggers.
Hahaha yeah like we haven’t been trying to educate people for the past 10 years furthermore nothing has been banned, an age limit has been set. Chicken nuggets and pizza isn’t acidic and cause corrosion. I don’t understand why this is so hard to understand, you’re making wild comparisons.
Maybe stop being a fat piece of shit and stop drinking garbage.
Cut off all sugar from your life.
beer is considered a basic need in large parts of the UK.
In the north and Scotland basically all they do is work and drink.. Go work, waste all money during weekends in the pub. rinse and repeat till you turn yellow due to liver cirocis at the age of 50.
That's why you have reasonable restrictions for substances that are fatal or poisonous even in small doses, but there has to be a point where you let consumers make decisions based on their own judgement and the UK is currently pushing way too far to the point where they are dictating peoples' lifestyle choices.
EVERYONE STOP EATING
I'm 5'10 130lbs. I also have private healthcare because the NHS didn't cover a lot of things I wanted and it was getting expensive to pay for.
Also socialised healthcare is dumb and makes people not responsible for their own actions.
I’m not an advocate of freedom. Go puff on a joint.
I like sugar, it tastes good, has a high energy content for a reasonable price and causes me no health implications because I brush my teeth and consume it within reason as part of a balanced diet including vegetables and proteins.
No it isn't. It's cheap here and in Germany.
>I’m not an advocate of freedom
I know that's why I called you out bootlicker. You lied about not sounding the alarm when a kid drinks some fucking soda, because you know deep down your ideology is based on your own percieved weakness. You are exactly like leftists who start sentences with "I'm all for free speech, but..."
I used to like it too, but suddenly I didn't like regular cola anymore, and after that orange soda neither. They have way too much sugar, it's just not refreshing. Now I mostly drink ice cold water, ice tea and sometimes cola light.
What the hell are you on about, I didn’t lie and I’m not a leftist. You’re quite literally spouting out bullshit and making assumptions by calling me a leftist, ironically jus like a leftist.
STOP drinking sodas you degenerates
Drink water or non homogenized whole milk.
He'll probably need special training and licenses to handle deadly greenhouse gases.
Oh wow. I wish we had a major sugar tax. 50% tax on sugar when??? @POTUS PLS RESPOND
>There are quite a few things used in food in the US that are banned elsewhere
Don't worry our liberals are doing their best to make sure we can't have any fun either.
All the great Empires of the world were built on the backs of people who ate like shit, never bathed, and sat in smoky huts and temples negotiating the fate of nations with brown-skinned jib-jubs for weeks at a time. I don't think they worried about some faggot shit like carcinogens.
Soft drinks are nasty but I understand why you'd be pissed at the principal of it. I fucking hate my tax dollars going to 600lb hambeast health care while I get zero compensation for it.
"Ciggies" have been demonized for 60+ years yet people still like to "puff a fag". You can't teach people to stop doing stuff that feels good. You can ban it, tax it, or just not give a fuck because it's their body not yours. I measure how free a society is by how little they care if you fuck up your own life. Safety nets are for the weak, a strong society survives by allowing the weak to remove themselves from society.
> buying HFCS fizzy from burgerland
You’re probably the most idiotic person I’ve ever seen posting here. I would say “kys” but you already are by consuming their revolting poison
>Used to have maybe one Vimto or Ginger Beer a month as a treat or when i'm driving.
>Sugar tax comes in and every fucking company decides to put artificial sweeteners in rather than raise their prices.
>Learn about Chinese sweetener surplus- they subsidise their factories to produce this shit so its cheaper than sucrose so now its cheaper than sucrose literal megatons of this shit being sold for fractions of a penny.
>Everything tastes flat and bitter.
>Really don't like US sodas as they make my chest hurt with their brominated crap
>Now I make my own sodas and sell them illegally to people that want a quick fix
Such is life in 2020 Brit-Cit
sugary sodas are a jew conspiracy to keep the goyim dumbed down.
They are cucking you with that sugar addiction.
Stop drinking that poison
Where do you sell them? Whomst do you sell them to?
Medfaggot here. Just to kinda re-iterate what others have already said. We already pay a fortune for the care of diabetics and the other conditions one can expect to develop from diabetes: ( Kidney failure, strokes, heart attacks, infections, etc )
And this is in any country that has ANY form of socialized healthcare - whether its endemic or just things like medicare.
Now is a sugar tax going to stop obese fucks from guzzling sodas by the liter?? No. Shit is addictive. All it really does is punish those who have the willpower to enjoy it in moderation.
hey bongs I'm making a minced meat pie, I added carrots into the pie mix, is that halal?
also pic
Markets, craft fairs, Word of mouth, facebook.
I make sure my "customers" know that the aspartame makes you dumb and the other stuff turns your frogs gay etc
Its mostly older women and edgy hipsters as a client base
Yanks don't know what mincemeat is.
>throws soda in your face
>"OMG ACID ATTACK"
kys, faggot
britFUCKINGbong don't know what real mincemeat is.
