At my grocery store today, Coke was on a buy 1, get 2 free, and there was plenty of product. Having a little trouble moving your product?

OK, I will concede on the phosphoric acid part, but it's still bad for you in the amount most people consume. That said, HFCS is the liver bomb I was referring to. HFCS contains higher amounts of fructose which is converted to triglycerides in the liver. If you look up the history of HFCS in cola, it was only since the early 80's that it became a problem because that's when Coke started adding it to their formula. Before this, pure sugar was the sweetener of choice and is preferable in nearly every usage scenario aside from cost-savings.
My argument latterly has been that if you're eating enough sugar for the type of sugar to matter, you're eating too much sugar.
