Real World

Mayor for life. Seriously, how stupid can people be to re-elect someone who ursurps term limits in order to remain in power? You get what you deserve NYC. I wonder if Mayor for life Bloomturd will be eating Cheez-its (to refresh your memory click the link) and slogging a Slurpee from his free Yankee Stadium luxruy box, courtesy of the bond deal he gave the team. Typical elitist politician.



New York Plans to Ban Sale of Big Sizes of Sugary Drinks

Mr. Bloomberg on Wednesday with Linda Gibbs, deputy mayor for health. By each soda is the amount of sugar in it.

New York City plans to enact a far-reaching ban on the sale of large sodas and other sugary drinks at restaurants, movie theaters and street carts, in the most ambitious effort yet by the Bloomberg administration to combat rising obesity.


The proposed ban would affect virtually the entire menu of popular sugary drinks found in delis, fast-food franchises and even sports arenas, from energy drinks to pre-sweetened iced teas. The sale of any cup or bottle of sweetened drink larger than 16 fluid ounces — about the size of a medium coffee, and smaller than a common soda bottle — would be prohibited under the first-in-the-nation plan, which could take effect as soon as next March.

Sweet. Daley-lite is at it again.

Hey Mike, if you're in a banning mood anyway, how about you lead the charge to "ban" high fructose corn syrup?

An aside there was an effort to change the name of high fructose corn syrup "corn sugar", but the FDA says no.....
