I will still drink juice, and let my kids drink it, but I will do it in moderation (not that we don't now actually). Just don't tell me milk is bad as well........

How many other mammals continue to drink milk after they are weaned off their mother's milk?

The most shocking thing for me in this thread is the number of people calling it "soda".

This kid should be getting a scholarship to Harvard, not being punished.

Its not like he was selling hand grenades or Crystal meth.

He was selling something that is available in every store in the country to students who wanted it at a nice profit.

Its up to the school to educate against it to reduce demand. Not come down on this kid like the angry fist of Thor and make him even more successful.

Or isn't that what we talk about in the war on drugs.

This sody pop prohibition has to end.

Juice is the worst way to ingest fruit. Just give your kids fruit and let them drink something else.

Nice try, I suspect is it the same number of mamals that cook their food first, don't lick their own #######s, or eat #### (Pommie Soldiers excluded).

Banning sugared beverages is one of the many important subjects that are discussed at the Parent Council meetings....

Complain to your wives?

They got rid of the deep fryer in the cafeteria too? Half of my high school would have starved to death by the end of the first semester without the fries and gravy from the cafeteria.

I'm just making assumptions based on the fact that they got rid of soda. I don't actually know for sure, wouldn't surprise me though.

My favourite is C-Plus, which proudly advertises on the side of it's can that it contains 4% real fruit juice!

I remember when they banned this stuff in elementary and Jr high. We broke rules and walked across the street to the convenience store. Even had friends as lookouts for the monitors.

That, and kids showing up with full backpacks of candy selling it in the corners. Ah, the first start ups of our time. The real money was in Jaw breakers.

Pixie sticks yo. And war heads and paint balls.

They can pry that Tahiti Treat from my cold dead hands.

Also... the students he sold pop to should be suspended. It's like going to the Superstore Liquor Store to buy pop.

I hope Randy never has to send Lex up the way to the playground.

Since there was some talk about artificial sweeteners here...

Sugar substitutes such as saccharin might aggravate these metabolic disorders by acting on bacteria in the human gut, according to a study published by Nature this week (J. Suez et al. Nature http://dx.doi.org/10.1038/nature13793; 2014). Smaller studies have previously purported to show an association between the use of artificial sweeteners and the occurrence of metabolic disorders.

As an alumni of the real WCHS (the one in Calgary), I can positively state that all copy-cat high schools in Lethbridge are no good.

How about Zevia?

The aspartame likely is, but the rest of the stuff in the pop really isnt.
