As we all know, there are no unhealthy wealthy people in the world.

Does he know any wealthy people that don't do coke?

[-] lobut@lemmy.ca 32 points 10 months ago

Ah yes, the usual song of "you're poor because you do X".

You're poor because you don't eat well. You're poor because you watch TV. You're poor because you don't wake up at 5am and take cold showers.

"you're poor because you do X".

Lol, I accidentally read this as "You're poor because you're on X"

Social media’s obsession with the habits of the rich is disgusting. Rich are rich because their parents were rich. It’s like they can’t grasp that simple concept. They literally think that rich must be rich because of some arbitrary habit of theirs.

It's like the same reason they're rich is the same reason I need to take cholesterol meds early -- not because of anything I did but because of my parents.

Woot! Not to blame if it's all rigged!

I don’t know a single wealthy person.

Come to Utah, speed running diabetes is a state sport for the rich and poor alike. There's a drive thru for soft drinks on nearly every corner, and each has a line of cars spilling out into the road blocking traffic (to be fair, the traffic wanted to go to the drive thru too).

This is the most Utah article ever, the only thing that would make it "more" Utah is if it was two lifted Ford F-150s and the only thing stopping them from shooting each other is that they're both holding soft drinks.

Here's a typical Swig:

Schrödinger's username. 🙃

Wait, do they make food related stuff or is it all just soft drinks? Like a café but for sugary drinks.

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 months ago

Some have cookies (premade), some just have soft drinks. Most are drive-thru only. No "actual" food though, so you wouldn't go there for a meal, just a treat.

The main draw is that you can get mixins to the soft drinks. Basically they do what coffee shops do to coffee, but to soft drinks.

Elon Musk’s torso sure looks like he drinks a sixer of full sugar sodies per day

Well tbf I don't know Warren Buffet either

[-] TowardsTheFuture@lemmy.zip 11 points 10 months ago

Well I don’t know a single wealthy person who DOESNT drink 100 full sugar drinks a day. So hah.

[-] Lawyerator@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago

So the 500 lb. trailer park resident in the motor-scooter at Walmart sucking down 64 oz. Diet Cokes is about to hit the jackpot? Color me impressed.

[-] Darkard@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

They only drink full sugar hard drinks. Like WKD Blue and a whiskey with with a tablespoon of Golden Syrup in it.

[-] echodot@feddit.uk 6 points 10 months ago

I'm confused about the order of events here. Does drinking Coke make you pull or does being poor make you drink Coke?

[-] morrowind@lemmy.ml 1 points 10 months ago

I think it's more the smart mindset that makes you rich also makes you avoid coke

[-] fsxylo@sh.itjust.works 4 points 10 months ago

However, they don't avoid coke.
