Lots of Mexico is in the same boat. Also coke is cheaper than baby formula so there are lots of babies mostly raised on it.
This is so cursed and sad.
My mom taught babies for a while in rural Pennsylvania and 90% of the babies got Mountain Dew put in their bottles all day every day. The water quality in that area is terrible, so nobody drank water. The only people that drank water around there were those who were wealthy enough to buy an absurd amount of gallon jugs. Jugged water was more expensive than soda around there, the last time I checked.
Iirc (From the book Chew on This), some Alaskans, especially the indigenous peoples get hooked on coke early, because that's what comes in the planes that bring supplies.
That wouldn't surprise me at all. God we are so fucked.
