I’ve seen children whose teeth had rotten due to being bottle-fed soda and in extreme cases it leads to them getting sick and having the teeth surgically removed. As a result those children’s adult teeth almost certainly will not grow in proper alignment and it can lead to a lifetime of inconvenience at best.
I’m most interested in the colorful squiggly lines that show a downward trend in infant mortality over the years, I’m not interested or care about the racial disparities, and I have no idea what that black jagged line going the opposite direction is.
But I’m most interested in the colorful squiggly lines that show a downward trend in infant mortality over the years.
Well, the black squiggly line in the opposite direction shows an increasing relative gap between races, which you don’t care about.
It shows that while infant mortality has gone down for all, and even though it’s significant, that black children are dying at an increasing proportion to their white peers. But you don’t care that it fundamentally shows that they’re not getting the same access to the same improvements (either medical care, education of the mother on prenatal care, etc).
I think you misunderstand what they meant with “I don’t care about”. It sounds like they just meant that it’s not line why they’re quoting this graph, they got it for the stats on child-deaths-per-1k people.
Yeah but not if you were just googling for a graph that shows the development of infant mortality in the past 100 years, this came up, and you need it for those curves.
The product, originally named “Bib-Label Lithiated Lemon-Lime Soda”, was launched two weeks before the Wall Street Crash of 1929. It contained lithium citrate, a mood-stabilizing drug, until 1948.
The phone number is 4 digits. I realize we added area codes. I didn’t realize we had already done it once before that wet the other 3 digits.i wonder if they still have a xxx-xxx-3577 phone number floating around the company somewhere
I was a kid growing up in 80s Japan & they had this drink called “Calpis” and it was milk and orange soda. And yes, the Japanese pronounced it like “cow piss”. I hated it.
We also had a milk-orange jus drink in france in the 2000’s. Absolutly disgusting. Danao, launched in 1998, nerver consumed by anyone, still available today!
Calpis isn’t carbonated tho, at least none of the Calpico branded stuff I’ve had. Milkis is very similar and is carbonated, so it would probably be closer to this. Personally I like both Calpico and Milkis, they are definitely not my favorite but they are good to have every once in a while, owing especially to their unique taste.
Second, given when this add is from, it is likely that the milk consumed by many who read this ad was close to or equivalent to the best “artisan farmer” organic milk you can find today, and the 7-Up was likely still using pure cane sugar rather than high-fructose corn syrup.
Not wholesome, but also not the toxic sludge it would be today.
The swill milk scandal was a major adulterated food scandal in the state of New York in the 1850s. The New York Times reported an estimate that in one year 8,000 infants died from swill milk.
Apparently this story preceded some asshole politician blocking regulation despite public outcry and working super hard to make sure nothing changes, successfully for the most part.
Tuomey assumed a central role in the ensuing investigations, and, with fellow Aldermen E. Harrison Reed and William Tucker, shielded the dairies and turned the hearings into one-sided exercises designed to make dairy critics and established health authorities look ridiculous, even going to the extent of arguing that swill milk was actually as good or better for children than regular milk.
I’m happy that their food ingredients were such high quality back then. Leads me to wonder how the heck they spiraled downward into eating hot dog jello.
It sounds awful. But I once took a half-empty can of diet Squirt and added it to a half glass of orange juice, and it was AMAZING. Very citrusy and actually very delicious. So - ya never know what might work.
I had some friends from the middle east that loved any drink that had citrus flavoring, like 7-up or Sprite. It's a taste they prefer to cola and other kinds of soda.
Yeah i don't know if they even make "Squirt" anymore but it was a citrusy soda that came in regular and diet flavors. Mind you I didn't buy the diet, someone else did and left a half a can in my fridge.
But if you get a chance to try it with orange juice, it's really good.
