Comments on: Would You Rather? Coffee vs. Soda http://www.sogoodblog.com/2009/03/29/would-you-rather-coffee-vs-soda/ An absurd look at the world of food Fri, 10 Feb 2012 03:52:14 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Kevin http://www.sogoodblog.com/2009/03/29/would-you-rather-coffee-vs-soda/comment-page-1/#comment-26969 Kevin Fri, 06 May 2011 10:18:18 +0000 http://www.sogoodblog.com/?p=1955#comment-26969 The Snopes report is miss-leading. First, it compares fruits to Coke, stating that an orange has similar acidity. This ignores the fact that very few people eat several oranges a day - while millions drink several sodas a day. Second, it states that the liquid does not stay in tbe mouth long enough to cause damage. This ignores the effect of repeated exposure, day after day, can after can, sip after sip. It adds up, just like the wind and rain erode stone. Lastly, it ignores the fact that the Dental industry has decades of observation of increased tooth decay related to soda consumption. Millions of grade school kids have repeated the experiment of watching a tooth decompose in a glass of Coke. Pretending all of this is silly. Drink what you wish, as an informed adult, and in moderation. The Snopes report is miss-leading. First, it compares fruits to Coke, stating that an orange has similar acidity.
