[PLUG] OT: sugar in soda (PLUG N dinner)

[JP Vossen <jp@jpsdomain.org>]

Last week at dinner after PLUG N some of us were talking about the 
difference between real sugar and high-fructose corn syrup and the 
challenge of finding the former in soda in the US.  It just occurred to 
me to mention that the way I solved that problem was with a SodaStream. 
Many of of syrup mixes for that have actual sugar and not HFCS.  The 
mixes may not taste exactly the same as the name brand, but I personally 
don't care.  I'm more used to "Dr. Pete" than real "Dr. Pepper" at this 
point anyway.

Full disclosure: we own a SodaStream  and while it doesn't really work 
out to be much (if any) cheaper, there are many fewer plastic bottles 
and the mixes I get have no HFCS.  That's it...

Later,
JP
