That had to be the photographer's first week on the job, because I can't imagine any experienced magazine photographer putting those nasty feet in the photo that appears in the magazine.
Seriously, the photographer, and the editor looked at that and said, yes, good, print it. |

https://www.motherjones.com/media/20...ig-gulp-chart/ So it turns out the Supersized drinks at McDonald’s were 42 ounces and I thought those were massive lol that 7-11 drink is over three times as large. That’s absurd. |

In all seriousness, thank you for pointing that out. I hadn’t put two and two together. I was thinking it was probably marketed to truck drivers, long haulers, etc. but that makes way more sense. Though I will say it is shocking how much soda the average American drinks on a regular basis. As a personal anecdote, I was talking to my grandma the other day and she was updating me on my uncle’s current situation. Long story short, he’s diabetic and has run into some complications lately. He had some sort of foot infection that lasted for well over a year without healing properly. They finally amputated it and I guess it was sort of a wake up call for him. So my grandma tells me he’s lost a ton of weight, “he looks like a stick”. Whatever. He’s probably just normal sized now. Anyway, she says “He’s doing real well! He gave up Diet Mountain Dew. He only has one a day now” I didn't ask her what size he was drinking but thought it was hilarious that having one can or bottle of soda every single day could even remotely constitute ‘giving it up’.. this comes from my side of the family that drinks Diet Coke religiously. It’s like water to these people so for them, I suppose that is progress. Personally, soda has never been my thing so it’s even more foreign to me. I only ever drink it when I’m eating out and even then, I don’t always get soda with my meal. On the occasion I do, I’m never able to finish it. Thinking about a 42 ounce Supersized soda from McD’s, I’d be surprised if I drank that much soda in 3 months. I’m rambling now and this isn’t the place for it but I have lots of thoughts on the subject. |

I quit drinking diet coke and only drink stevia sodas now and I lost like 30 lbs in about 6 months. I had no idea that the body views that shitty substitute for sugar in diet coke like it's sugar and pumps out insulin non-stop.

I drank a lot of the zero soft drinks until I got a kidney stone. Had to zap it to get it out, Got a UTI with pseudomonas. Have like 3-4 a year now. No kidney stones since and all bloodwork returned to normal. Just by cutting out the zero sugar drinks.

Don’t even get me started. I’m doing research into our ancestry lately and using my grandma as a resource. Growing up I always heard her and my mom say “cancer runs in our family”. Turns out that’s probably just because they were all alcoholics & heavy smokers who ate and drank like shit. These people do not give a shit about their health. It’s kind of fascinating in a morbid way. |

I mostly steer clear of soda because it’s terrible for your teeth (in addition to the fact that I just don’t love it), but horror stories of kidney stones are enough to keep me from over indulging. |
