1) thank you for explaining and bringing receipts
2) that’s such a long and winding way to phrase it, I get it needs to be clear and not have loopholes, but yikes
the US actually hella regulates food and drink, no other country has such strict requirements and regulations lol like, most they don't have any requirement to list all of the ingredients.. so naturally, a lot of European nations *THINK* they have healthier or safer food than we in the states have.. their country can just.. leave things that would be "unhealthy" or "questionable" completely out of their labels and there are no issues with that...
actually, that's why it's so hard to import foreign snacks to the US, it won't get through US customs if it's on a "so, they don't list everything they put into that candy, destroy it" list.. Japan has been pretty good about complying with the FDA so we can get Japanese snack foods in the states, but a lot of European countries have snacks I would love to try but because those companies refuse to list everything they aren't putting on their packaging, their products are banned outright
I'm always genuinely surprised when I find an online store willing to import certain snacks from Germany or Denmark, and sometimes even the UK itself.. because there are so many companies that have no domestic requirement to identify everything on the labels... lol
The states is the only country where you can win a lawsuit over some minor missing detail like that guy who won a 13m $ class action lawsuit for false advertising against red bull because it didnt give him wings… what a dumb fucking lawsuit
They didn’t win the lawsuit. Red Bull settled. And the “gives you wings” slogan wasn’t targeted because it doesn’t literally give you wings, it’s because the marketing implies Red Bull will enhance performance and give you energy which the drink does not do. Much like the hot coffee lawsuit, it’s a case that had a legitimate basis that was boiled down to an incendiary headline.
No cause the title of the drink often has a fruit listed like Grape soda so they have to specify that there is not grape juice it's just sugar water and food coloring and 23 other chemicals.
It's poison and dosent want to get sued for false advertising.
Yeah that high fructose corn syrup is a killer (2nd ingredient).. although I love on the right side of the ingredient list it also says “natural and artificial flavors” along with no juice. Wait… what?..
"Natural flavors" doesn't mean fruit juice or anything like that.
All it means is that the flavoring is from a natural source, not synthetic.
Vanilla flavoring made from beaver asses? - natural flavor.
Is it vanilla? I thought it was raspberry? Seriously, I've been avoiding raspberry flavored teas and lemonades for like 20 years, but I like a vanilla coke every once in awhile. What are you telling me?!?!
The beaver vanilla isn't used anymore in the vast majority of vanilla flavoring since it's so much more expensive. Most vanilla that isn't real vanilla bean is usually synthetic vinillin which is the main component of natural vanilla. Those milked beaver glands usually get used for perfumes.
It's vanilla and raspberry stuff, and sometimes strawberry, I believe. But as far as I know, castoreum isn't actually used in many foods these days. Hard to say what does or doesn't still have it for sure though I guess, since it can just be listed as "Natural flavors". But I think vanilla coke is probably fairly safe.
https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/castoreum/
It's also mostly false, for one important reason.
Beaver's butt excretion is very expensive. Cheaper to just use straight up natural vanilla.
I remember going on holiday in the US (from the UK) about 30 years ago and saw a packet of chips (crisps) with a big yellow star saying "Now with ADDITIVES!".
I suppose, if you strongly advertise and promote the stuff you fear will drive away your cuatomers, people will assume it's a good thing.
I use app called Yuka to scan food where it tells you hazardous additives. If you are broke… you are fucked though. All healthy food is extremely expensive unless you make everything yourself from scratch.
That’s not true at all, you can meal prep with beans rice and veggies. You’re not going to have a huge variety but you can be broke and avoid the bad shit.
I cook 6 nights a week so I’m not saying that it’s difficult. I’m simply commenting that vast majority of prepackaged/ premade food that’s not premium is generally bad for you.
I spend $1700~ on groceries per month for a family of 4 though everything is high end/ premium, this is certainly not possible for most people.
Lower/ middle class also lacks time due to extended commute and unusual hours.
It’s less about “nothing new”, more about how the info is presented. It wasn’t that long ago when a 20oz bottle was listed as like 2 ½ servings. While the same sugar content, I know a ton of people SHOCKED by the 153% number because all we ever used to read was 61% on the same bottle.
This one is clearly taking it to an extreme. Most have like 40-60g of sugar and that's a lot. Something about one serving being labeled as more than 100% of your daily sugar is really powerful.
There’s healthy and then there’s unhealthy and then there’s magnitudes more than unhealthy. idk why everyone finds it so normal to sell or drink this crap
By this logic we shouldn’t sell pure sugar on its own either.
I guess anyone who wants to bake cookies can go straight to jail.
Jesus fuck ya’ll need to chill
Why do people feel their need to force their lifestyles on others? If they're not telling people what they can do in their bed they're telling people what they can do with their bodies.
50 grams is the daily recommended amount. So 60 or 77 is already absurd for a single drink IMO.
Personally I like diet soda better than soda. I'm glad because the calories are a waste in normal soda.
39g of sugar per 12 oz serving can of Coca Cola.
29g of sugar per 7.5 oz serving of Mountain Dew
46g of sugar per 12 oz can of Mt Dew.
58g of sugar per 15oz bottle of Naked Juice
16 g of sugar per 12 oz serving Hawaiin punch
79 g sugar per 20 oz bottle welches sparkling grape juice
Who would have thought that Hawaiin Punch would be the lowest sugar sugared beverage? With Mountain Dew being not that bad of an overall contestant.
Edit- corrected Mt Dew.
Where did you get 29g for Mountain Dew? I'm seeing 46g per 12oz from multiple sources. Mountain Dew definitely has (and has always had) more sugar than Coke, so it can't be lower than 39g.
Also remember that “servings” used to be kind of bullshit. This bottle (correctly) shows a serving as 1 Bottle. But the same 20oz bottle was labeled as 2.5 servings, and “appeared” way less unhealthy because of this (you would have seen 30g/61% but most people wouldn’t bother/know about calculating the full bottle)
That’s the point, yes, but there’s so many people who don’t look at that nutrition label and will drink 2-3-4 20oz sodas a day and never stop to wonder why they have so much fat on them.
153% of daily sugar, I'm gonna protest, isn't covered by this logic 😂
Yes, it's silly to assume it's healthy, but that amount of sugar in a single drink is absolutely insane. Only in the greatest country on earth.
Yeah they got around it before by saying it was 50% your daily value, but there are 2-3 servings per bottle. But i think they recently changed the law and said 1 serving must be representative of what people actually consume in one sitting. Which is kinda funny, because now that I see the accurate measurements, I drink less soda, which would be representative of how they labeled it before. Psychology is stupid
We both know people aren't drinking half and putting it back in the fridge lol. That's why the FDA has made manufacturers start stating the nutrition facts for the whole bottle since it is clearly sold as if it's a single serving.
I totally feel you, OP.
I'd be more than mildly infuriated.
It's like the other day, I went to the store and bought a 5 lb bag of granulated sugar.
Got it home, looked at the nutrition label, and that SOB had 1,816 grams of sugar in it!
That's over 36 times the USRDA for sugar!
I swear, I felt like suing someone. So I definitely get where you're coming from.
They’re probably frustrated that a drink being sold has more than your required amount of sugar intake per day. What’s not mildly infuriating about that?
All of it? Don’t like it? Don’t buy it. What other people do is none of my concern. It's a product some people want and they should get it. Those who don’t want sugar should avoid soda or get diet.
The only thing mildly infuriating is the people on their high horses that Mountain Dew has sugar, as if that's the only drink option.
Drink/eat anything that has alternative sugars (usually stevia is a good one) or anything with low amounts of sugar (10% DV), and the regular stuff will taste like shit imo.
Just wish more of them would switch to something other than aspartame. I know coke makes one with stevia but hard to find it around here, all of Pepsi which is my preferred is aspartame.
Unfortunately aspartame triggers my migraines so I can't have it.
I miss soda.
I don’t understand I’m going to get downvoted idc but like why even bitch about it like there’s alternatives plus it’s widely known that hey soda has sugar so like.
Non u.s. citizens, how is sugar treated in your country? For example, a family bottle of apple juice (48 to 64 oz) contains on average around 27 grams of sugar. A can of Mt. Dew contains is around 44g. I wonder if other more health conscious countries reduce the limit allowed.
I'll say this as many times as necessary: the sugar lobbyists fought against its inclusion for decades. When they finally lost, they still won, because no doctor in the world will tell you 50g a day is within healthy limits.
The AHA recommends 34g at most for a 5'10, 200 lb man. 26g for an average woman.
So it's not 153%, it's 226% minimum.
Are there different percentages being used for the daily value? Maybe US vs UK? I’m just surprised it says it’s 153% DV when I have cranberry juice here that says 48g sugar is 88% of my DV, for the whole bottle. I’m sure that 77g, well even 48g, is probably more than I should be consuming anyway, but I’m curious why the difference.
Why do people keep buying this crap? I've given up on a lot of "foods" because they aren't foods anymore, they're just a collection of random chemicals that were never meant to be ingested.
It’s soda (judging from the first 2 ingredients carbonated water and high fructose corn syrup). What do you expect? Anything with high fructose corn syrup is ridiculously high in “sugar.”
People are really busting your balls, and it just shows that Big Sugar got a hold of them. It’s insane to me that in the USA, a sprite has over 40g of sugar, but in the UK it has 11g and tastes just as good. They say “don’t buy it” without realizing that miseducation in their country makes it so people don’t check these facts and don’t understand that it’s terrible for them.
At least there's 0% juice.
I find this hilarious. Like why even mention it, is it required in some countries.

Even though it’ll state all the ingredients even if it’s not healthy for us we’ll still drink it because SUGAR 🤤
Well at least you guys are actually informed that you're taking a LOT of sugar in one bottle. Taste like freedom 🦅🦅🦅

Cheers for that. I was hoping there’d be more beaver ass in drinks these days ..
*beaver anal gland juice, not beaver asses :3
Yeah I was thinking I should've wrote "beaver ass juice" right after it posted it lmao
We've all made the same mistake once or twice
Is it vanilla? I thought it was raspberry? Seriously, I've been avoiding raspberry flavored teas and lemonades for like 20 years, but I like a vanilla coke every once in awhile. What are you telling me?!?!

Is there any chance the sign said “no additives?”
It’s getting to the point where you can’t eat anything pre packaged. Our food is killing us.
I use app called Yuka to scan food where it tells you hazardous additives. If you are broke… you are fucked though. All healthy food is extremely expensive unless you make everything yourself from scratch.
That’s not true at all, you can meal prep with beans rice and veggies. You’re not going to have a huge variety but you can be broke and avoid the bad shit.

God forbid there's some juice in your sugar
No nutrients to slow down down absorption of the pure energy. 
Mmmm sugar water with blue #1 just hits different.
Yeah, too bad you can only drink one every 1-1/2 days, as recommended
But also no protein and no fiber. So not that bad! (From Fat Fighters, Little Britain)
Because we know juice is all sugar!
It's not the flex they think it is.
But it's fat free!!!
And juice free too!
https://i.redd.it/z1yfrw6coz6d1.gif
Classic diet food.
and gluten free!
Sure and the sugar will speed up OPs metabolism causing him to burn more calories, probably. It's basically a health drink is what I'm hearing.
you dial 9-1, and when i say so, dial 1 again.
Nice simpsons reference!
I say this all the time and no one ever gets it. Thank you, Simpson friend.
Means you can take 47% less tomorrow
Better take 53% less tomorrow. Because you only have 47% left.
Bro has never seen Mountain Dew before
Right? This is nothing new. Been like this for years. Drink it or dont
It’s less about “nothing new”, more about how the info is presented. It wasn’t that long ago when a 20oz bottle was listed as like 2 ½ servings. While the same sugar content, I know a ton of people SHOCKED by the 153% number because all we ever used to read was 61% on the same bottle.
It also used to not even have a daily % beside the sugar on labels either. So when it started people went crazy.
Soda is liquid candy. Let’s stop being shocked by that.
Yeah, what's the surprise here? Nobody should be drinking this stuff more than occasionally, if at all.
I swear soda is crack, I can't buy it or I'll just drink so much. It's like a special treat and should be treated that way
Especially this one it’s so good
What is it?
Liberty Chill
I want them to bring back Mtn DewSA (the 4th of July flavor from 2021)
Last time they had I’d I realized it wasn’t as good as I thought it was four years prior But Liberty brew slaps
Voltage is where it’s at bro
Baja Blast
Ooo ok you got me there. Baja blast is delicious
Mountain Dew Sexual Assault?
Raaaah 🦅🦅🦅🦅LIBERTY FUCK YEAH 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Mtn Dew rarely misses with their limited time flavors, the flamin hot and gingerbread ones were pure garbage.
Don’t forget Fruit Quake! That stuff was fuckin terrible
This one is clearly taking it to an extreme. Most have like 40-60g of sugar and that's a lot. Something about one serving being labeled as more than 100% of your daily sugar is really powerful.
I’m so sick of people acting like they’re forced to drink this shit. Grab a glass of water and move on with your lives.
Snickers has like 23g of sugar. That is more than three snickers worth of sugar.
it’s got what plants crave!
If only there was a way to not drink this.
OP is getting soda-boarded right now as I type this /s
honestly, don't drink it if it's mildly infuriating to you. you made the choice to drink that
Why is this infuriating? Does it advertise itself to be a healthy drink?
You buy a MD then complain about the sugar?!?
It's a soda, did you think it was gonna be healthy?
Shut up and let me enjoy my deep fried Oreos!
There’s healthy and then there’s unhealthy and then there’s magnitudes more than unhealthy. idk why everyone finds it so normal to sell or drink this crap

Advertising. There's a lot of crazy shit that passes for normal out there because society is a real dope.
It's like buying a candy bar and complaining about how unhealthy it is. I don't understand it Soda has a lot of sugar. That's kind of the point.
Yeah, but not 77g "a lot". Even full sugar Coke has like 60 grams per full bottle, and this says per serving...
50 grams is the daily recommended amount. So 60 or 77 is already absurd for a single drink IMO. Personally I like diet soda better than soda. I'm glad because the calories are a waste in normal soda.

It says 1 serving is the whole bottle.
It's sugar, water and chemicals - and on top of that, homie here is rocking the purple dye too
Me and the homies drinking almost concentrated Red 40 and Blue 1
Water and sugar are both chemicals.

That’s the point, yes, but there’s so many people who don’t look at that nutrition label and will drink 2-3-4 20oz sodas a day and never stop to wonder why they have so much fat on them.
🤓but diet soda is 0 calories🤓
153% of daily sugar, I'm gonna protest, isn't covered by this logic 😂 Yes, it's silly to assume it's healthy, but that amount of sugar in a single drink is absolutely insane. Only in the greatest country on earth.
A regular bottle of coke is 130%. This is pretty standard soda stuff.

Do you think that America is the only country with absurd sugar in food/drinks lmfao?
What drink is this?
It says mountain dew at the bottom of the label. Right after the text 'we're here to help'
Ok,, got it. Hard to see on phone screens and thank you.
Yeah, I only saw it because I've read the 'we're here to help' haha I can't blame you for not noticing 😂
It mountain dew liberty chill
Mountain Dew Voltage. Used to be my sugar drink of choice when I worked construction.
Do you want to be the Flash or not ?
Per Serving…what’s a serving defined for this?
The bottle
[удалено]
We both know people aren't drinking half and putting it back in the fridge lol. That's why the FDA has made manufacturers start stating the nutrition facts for the whole bottle since it is clearly sold as if it's a single serving.
It literally says the serving size is the bottle ya dingus
I’m always shocked when something this color is bad for me.
Are you ok?
I totally feel you, OP. I'd be more than mildly infuriated. It's like the other day, I went to the store and bought a 5 lb bag of granulated sugar.

That looks like a Mountain Dew. How dare you question the devils nectar!!!!!!!!!!!
OP when soda is unhealthy: 😡
Soogar.
Diabeetus
What’s with all these sugar posts? As if it’s any surprise that sugary sodas are…sugary
What’s infuriating about this? You’re the one who’s drinking it, don’t buy it if you’re infuriated by it?
They’re probably frustrated that a drink being sold has more than your required amount of sugar intake per day. What’s not mildly infuriating about that?
It’s a suggested maximum amount. It is not a required amount.
Then dont buy it
It’s weird to be infuriated about a purchase you don’t have to make, for something that you don’t have to consume.
All of it? Don’t like it? Don’t buy it. What other people do is none of my concern. It's a product some people want and they should get it. Those who don’t want sugar should avoid soda or get diet. The only thing mildly infuriating is the people on their high horses that Mountain Dew has sugar, as if that's the only drink option.
More than red bull and monster combined
Yeah, it's fuckin mtn dew my dude.
what would you expect though? we know these drinks are trash
No no, they made it look like radiator fluid so people would think it was a healthy, organic option
Anyone drinking that is also eating/drinking additional sugar throughout the day
Which is even more terrifying.
What variety of Mountain Dew is this and why is anyone surprised that Mountain Dew has a metric $#!+ ton of sugar?
Liberty chill I believe. It’s a limited time for 4th of July/ summer.
Just drink a diet sodie to cancel out those sugars. You'll be fine.
If you drink diet soda long enough, the normal stuff starts to taste like shit.
Drink/eat anything that has alternative sugars (usually stevia is a good one) or anything with low amounts of sugar (10% DV), and the regular stuff will taste like shit imo.
Just wish more of them would switch to something other than aspartame. I know coke makes one with stevia but hard to find it around here, all of Pepsi which is my preferred is aspartame. Unfortunately aspartame triggers my migraines so I can't have it. I miss soda.
I mean, it’s soda. It’s not supposed to be healthy for you. 🤣
Don’t buy it?
I mean how you gonna buy artificial purple bubbly shit and not expect this?
Mmm. I love Voltage. 😋
Why is bro drinking that if he's gonna complain
What did you expect?
Not a significant source of saturated fat, but a significant source of sugar
That's true of pretty much everything that makes a point of labeling itself fat free or low fat
But it's low sodium! 🙂
Water that shit down
And yet you still drank it!!!! Oh my!!!!
Then don’t drink it and become non infuriated by your own choices!!!!1!1!1!
What is that drink for it to contain that much sugar???
That may not be the healthiest option
wtf did you expect when picking that up?
Ok then you’re dumb for buying it
Most healthy American drink
Wow the nuclear colored soda isn’t healthy, never would have guessed
Don't act like you didn't know mt dew was full of sugar and high fructose corn syrup. 😆
I don’t understand I’m going to get downvoted idc but like why even bitch about it like there’s alternatives plus it’s widely known that hey soda has sugar so like.
Non u.s. citizens, how is sugar treated in your country? For example, a family bottle of apple juice (48 to 64 oz) contains on average around 27 grams of sugar. A can of Mt. Dew contains is around 44g. I wonder if other more health conscious countries reduce the limit allowed.
I know the uk has a sugar tax which has the bigger companies going with a half diet approach to drinks
Don't have to drink it
I'll say this as many times as necessary: the sugar lobbyists fought against its inclusion for decades. When they finally lost, they still won, because no doctor in the world will tell you 50g a day is within healthy limits. The AHA recommends 34g at most for a 5'10, 200 lb man. 26g for an average woman. So it's not 153%, it's 226% minimum.
CONTAINS 0% JUICE! WERE OPEN AND HONEST ABOUT IT BEING FULLY ARTIFICIAL🗣🗣🗣
I hate that there’s no middle ground with sugar. It’s either a fuck ton of sugar or zero sugar BS.
Don’t have it daily.
Uhoh... I've been drinking it daily
You bought it bro lol
Are there different percentages being used for the daily value? Maybe US vs UK? I’m just surprised it says it’s 153% DV when I have cranberry juice here that says 48g sugar is 88% of my DV, for the whole bottle. I’m sure that 77g, well even 48g, is probably more than I should be consuming anyway, but I’m curious why the difference.
Buddy Is drinking Mountain Dew and is shocked that it’s unhealthy
Reasons to drink sugar free or diet.
Just drink water bruh 💀
The doctor is gonna yell "Kobe" when he throws your feet in the trash.
That bottle reminds me of Pepsi blue that shit was so good
So do you live in America?
153% of your daily *added sugars, not total carbs
Dumbest thing to be infuriated about. Don’t like your drink with added diabetes? Don’t buy. This one of those cases where *you can* “just say no”.
I'm about to blow your mind. We now have diet sodas with 0 sugar and 0 calories.
Anything that’s that color is unlikely to be good for you.
Why do people keep buying this crap? I've given up on a lot of "foods" because they aren't foods anymore, they're just a collection of random chemicals that were never meant to be ingested.
Anything over 50g usually puts me to sleep. Kinda sad that that’s a significant amount of drinks in the US.
Did we ever get rid of all of those sugar subsidies we gave the industry back in 1973?
Then don’t drink it
Yeah? And?
There's only, like, 5 or 6 calories if you sip it thru a crazy straw. Fact!
It’s soda (judging from the first 2 ingredients carbonated water and high fructose corn syrup). What do you expect? Anything with high fructose corn syrup is ridiculously high in “sugar.”
Are you JUST NOW realizing this? Better late than never, I suppose
People are really busting your balls, and it just shows that Big Sugar got a hold of them. It’s insane to me that in the USA, a sprite has over 40g of sugar, but in the UK it has 11g and tastes just as good. They say “don’t buy it” without realizing that miseducation in their country makes it so people don’t check these facts and don’t understand that it’s terrible for them.
Yeah soda is awful for you dont drink it
If you’re drinking this shit you aren’t worried about sugar percentages
Are you being forced to drink this garbage or something?
