Coca-Cola To Disclose Caffiene Amounts

Heather said: "It looks like another major company is changing the way they label things. I was reading that Coca-Cola is going to start disclosing how much caffiene their product has, starting with Coke first. Apparently they want to pressure the federal government to require that caffeine content be on all food and beverage labels. What do you guys think about that?"

More than once I see someone taking a pill with a coffee or soda in their hand to wash it down... I mean duh??? I think it may help make parents more aware of the caffine they are pumping in their kids. "My kid wont go to sleep at night! They are always acting up in school after lunch time!" Well duh... you feed them soda with caffine.. look it up. :D"
