It's so weird there's no in-between in this country. You're either getting 50+ grams of sugar in a serving (MY has 46g), or like 1. Any of the Odwalla-style shakes/juices are just as loaded with sugar, including their protein shakes. If you're suffering from chronic anxiety that is attacking your appetite/stomach, that poo poo will just make it worse. Cracks me up that parents are like, "No you have to drink juice instead of soda" when there is rarely a difference.

After a while you give up trying to find a middle-ground and just become a water drinker.

I did find this stuff called "Wave" recently that is a soda with about 5g sugar added through juice concentrates and I'm pretty satisfied with the flavor. When I hit fast food I grab the Minute Maid Pink Lemonade because it has < 20g.

There are some in between bespoke beverage manufacturers these days like Tractor but the problem is they're absurdly expensive because of how small they are compared to the big dogs, they can't really afford to (or don't want to) manufacture and sell in bottles or cans so they can only sell it as bulk concentrate for soda fountains/restaurants/etc with the smallest batches orderable being ~28 gallons' worth for $170.

All the Tractor drinks I've tried are really good though if you ever stop by a restaurant that has them, especially if they're mixing it with carbonated water to make soda :kiddo: I would absolutely keep a sixer of it in my fridge if that was a possibility

e: They do have about 30g of sugar per 12oz but it is at least straight up cane sugar and not high fructose corn syrup.

Tom Waits is cool, but it's not because his music is that good, it's because he's cool.
