You're missing the forest for the trees. Why do people drink Coke products? Well once upon a time they were filled with cocaine! But now they're only filled with tons of sugar and caffeine, those are only the two most addictive legal substances besides tobacco and alcohol, which are simply more regulated than sugar and caffeine.

I'm not saying that people should not try to self-regulate drinking Coke. But I am saying that you will never, ever fix this problem by convincing individuals to drink less Coke. Especially since it's not just about Cola, it's about literally everything you do.

If you live in the suburbs, you absolutely have to use a car to get around. If you aren't rich you cannot afford and ev, and if you want a cheap ev you won't get much range or convenience (thought that is changing painfully slowly).

And you can't live downtown if you have kids, or if you can't afford the high rents or condo prices.... so if you don't have a lot of money, you then have to live in the poor run-down suburban neighborhood, which is a food desert. Now your only choices for food are Dollar general, Wallmart, or corner stores that have bars on the window because they are broken into so often.

Those people do not have a choice, they have to live in the world that they live in. In fact, we all do. Even having a choice to buy high quality products is a luxury.
