I thought id start to post about things that are sold in Supermarkets, that are actually really bad for you, even if the Mainstream promotes that these products are "healthier for you"- And this post shall be about Pepsi Max.
I see many people coming out of supermarkets with trolleys full with the weekly bargains from the store recently and it seems they had a sale on for PepsiMax.
Pepsi Max loves to plaster on the packaging and boast that fact that they use No Sugar. This is obviously a great thing because the masses are beginning to slowly learn (and accept) that added sugars are very bad for all aspects of our health. Its fast become a substitute fizzy drink that all ages seem to enjoy and this is quite a worry.
You might be surprised as to how the advertising industry works. Yes, I said Industry, because it is itself a whole industry just for advertising. The lengths taken to ensure that your buying things that you believe are the better option (one of many illusions of "choice") are so much so that its turned into an multi billion dollar Industry.
Well , if you still havnt digested the fact that added sugars are bad for us, or like most humans who DO know its bad but still havnt quite got round to stop it, then maybe its time to stop now?
Thats great then that they use Sweeteners instead of Sugar, they care for us dont they- thats why they put no sugar in it so we stay healthy chickens. I remember when I was a kid and sweeteners became almost a fashion for women who cared way to much about physical appearance, health freaks who took care in the diet and old people like my nan , she was the first person I ever saw use sweetners.
What a wonderful world we all live in, the governments seem to really care for us after all, its all ok.
Whys that a lie then?
If you look at Pepsi max Ingredients, you will see that the are using an artificial sweetener called Aspertame as seen here right
Well, to save you time and confusion you can just read this simple sentence and you get the idea.
