L’indignazione mentre Nando’s limita i clienti a una coca cola per visita che scintilla le accuse di “stato di tata”

You know I get the feeling most of the staff would not really care if someone did get more than one. Very much a “Not paid enough to care” situation

It’s definitely a weird line

On one hand, we have a tax payer funded healthcare service and if it’s being overloaded by people who have made bad choices (obesity) then we should expect there to be some legislation to try and tackle that.

On the other hand, my body my choice, and to sone degree, my business my choice. If I want to consume a few full fat cokes I should be able to, and if I want to be ahead of the competition by making my full fat cokes free refills, I should be able to.

I dunno where I stand on it

Edit : how about Nando’s gets a scale at the door for an optional BMI reading and those with a healthy BMI get free refills. High BMI or refuse to be weighed no free refills

Meanwhile the unlimited ice cream remains unlimited

Also who has decided that aspartame is better than sugar because I know which one I’m drinking …

Amount of people that genuinely seem annoyed they cant have more than half a litre of full sugar coke with their meal for free is astonishing. But then thats what the media do now, make everyone try and be outraged at the smallest thing

Go outside, enjoy the fresh air and chill. Life is too short to be angry over this

The only way to prevent this would be to put full sugar Coca Cola on a separate machine that only the staff have access to behind the till. But as that would not be possible, a sign will suffice and people can decide for themselves what they want.

And anyway, full sugar Coca Cola is probably better for you than the diet/low sugar ones anyway.

Nanny state? My nanny let me drink as much fizzy pop as I wanted.

It is funny to me that we emphasize personal choice in 99.99% of cases, including our own health… except when it comes to food or drink.

There’s a fundamental disconnect there, that a refill is a step too far but so many issues, including suicide in the future at least for the terminally ill are yours to make.

It’d be one thing if the existing systems were set up to be predatory somehow, but if they aren’t then why should the government step in here but only here?

For what I care you can drink as much Coke as you want.

But don’t ask for Moinjaro’s injection finded via taxpayer’s money when your added weight makes your knees weak or gives you diabetes.

I know for a fact the staff don’t care, do whatever you want

Now I will wait for supermarkets to restrict the amount of cans or bottles you can buy.

This will come. Mark my words.
