Eric ShawMemberIt's sad to see how many people will fall for this kind of crap and it's even sadder to know that there are companies, scientists and doctors that are giving the green light for this dangerous crap based on junk science.http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/sideshow/pepsi-now-selling-fat-blocking-soda-202040443.html

systemfMemberIt's the Diet Coke fiasco allover again, remember since Diet Coke had 0 cal, it meant people could/would anything and never get fat.

FairyGuestOh dear, it stops dietary fat absorption? Well, that's not going to help achieve anything.

RagEGuestI clicked a related article on the sinde. OH GOD WHY!it has nuggets of wisdom such as "Not only do people who skip their morning meal—or begin the day with only a cup of coffee—have less energy, worse moods, and poorer memory those who eat breakfast, studies show, but they also face some serious health risks. First of all, they’re up to 450 percent more likely to become obese"http://health.yahoo.net/experts/dayinhealth/best-and-worst-breakfasts-your-health

Brandon D ChristParticipantI can't give up my diet pop, it is my only dietary vice ;D Seriously though, I do not buy into the whole artificial sweeteners cause cancer and obesity, especially the latter. If diet pop caused obesity I would be a fat ass.To be honest, this Pepsi wouldn't be bad if they used better fiber sources. I do think it is a good idea to get SOME fiber (I find 10-15 grams to be good). It could be useful for a gas station emergency. Blocking fat....yea that's garbage.
