Reply to: Ban all drinks but water?

[d000hg]

I do give a rats ass about many things just not so called experts with a fookin degree in Food Studies from Bangor poly telling me that sugary drinks may have sugar in them and to much of that could be bad for your health.

I mean jeez do you really need a degree to understand that?

It's common fookin knowledge

And yet people are still feeding their kids Coke multiple times a day. Don't you think kids should be protected from their parents?

Also does that mean a bottle of wine is like a pack of biscuits?

Only a small packet
But you could roughly equate a bottle of wine and a tube of Jaffa Cakes I think, they're pretty low-calorie.

I think the sugar thing is another witchhunt just the media looking for a story, it was fat before then carbs now sugar. Look at MF his sugar intake is high and he looks fine..

Wine IS rather low-calorie providing you don't drink it by the bottle. A small glass is about the same as a biscuit.

It must be liberating not to give a rat's arse about anyone else.

I'm having wine with my dinner tonight. All the sugar has turned to alcohol, so I presume it's fine.

Hmm my kids normally drink water - if we got to a restuarant they may have lemonade or fresh fruit juice.

However as others have said people will do what they want to so maybe it would be nice if these healthy do gooders would just take their pontificating tulip elsewhere..

Yes. But it was original grapes so counts as part of your 5 a day.

Weddings, funerals and Giro days?

What's a "Giro"? I thought everything was done by electronic banking nowadays.

Aren't the smiles on their little faces when you walk through the door enough for you?

On her way out?

I like the way they suggest banning it from the dinner table. So you're OK if you feed the kids takeaways in front of the telly.
