    Britain's number 1 sugary fizzy drink revealed: Sugar tax: What is the UK's most sugary drink? - BBC News.

    Sadly you'd need to drink two cans to reach your recommended daily maximum intake of sugar.

    Eh?

    From your linky
    The recommended maximum daily sugar intake for someone over the age of 11 is 30g a day, or 7.5 teaspoons.
    There are 13 teaspoons of sugar in a standard 330ml can of Extra Fiery, or 39 in a litre.

          I reckon Fanta and Sprite with "Real fruity bits" will be available almost immediately.

              From the article

              Action on Sugar reported last month that 98% of the 131 hot flavoured drinks found in the large High Street chains would carry a "red" warning for excessive levels of sugar. Starbucks' Hot Mulled Fruit - containing grape with chai, orange and cinnamon - contained 99g, or 25 teaspoons, of it.
              Justifies my decision to boycott Starbucks and suchlike, not that I like the overpriced foamy muck those kinds of places call coffee anyway.

              Give me a mug of proper instant coffee any day, with _one_ teaspoon of sugar instead of 25!

                  Cue.

                  I'm surprised San Pellegrino isn't higher up. That always tastes like pure concentrated evil.
                  Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

                    I see they've put the tax on Tonic water.

                    I guess it has to be a blanket thing but your average g&t drinker surely isn't the demographic they're trying to target?

                    Thanks a bunch, Jamie fecking Oliver, you fat tongued mockney c**t!
