In the south, where it's much warmer, sugar intake is going to be much greater. In Florida everyone is walking around with Polar Ice and Big Gulp year round. Be interesting to see how all this plays out when soda and energy drink demand peaks in the summer. If Philly has a t2d problem, it's gotta be far worse in places like Tampa, Atlanta, and Houston. LA has a big t2d problem too. But there are so many people in this country who eat several meals a week at 7-11, Circle K, and Wawa. It's really amazing. |
