Alt: I don’t know a single wealthy person who has full sugar soft drinks.

As we all know, there are no unhealthy wealthy people in the world.

    Come to Utah, speed running diabetes is a state sport for the rich and poor alike. There’s a drive thru for soft drinks on nearly every corner, and each has a line of cars spilling out into the road blocking traffic (to be fair, the traffic wanted to go to the drive thru too).

    This is the most Utah article ever, the only thing that would make it “more” Utah is if it was two lifted Ford F-150s and the only thing stopping them from shooting each other is that they’re both holding soft drinks.

    Here’s a typical Swig:

      Wait, do they make food related stuff or is it all just soft drinks? Like a café but for sugary drinks.

        Some have cookies (premade), some just have soft drinks. Most are drive-thru only. No “actual” food though, so you wouldn’t go there for a meal, just a treat.

        The main draw is that you can get mixins to the soft drinks. Basically they do what coffee shops do to coffee, but to soft drinks.
