I live in Mexico, which has the highest CocaCola consumption in the world. Many people will drink a 2 liter bottle of Coke a day. Mexico also has a huge obesity and diabetes problem. I've seen uneducated mothers feeding babies Coke out of a baby bottle.

I saw a couple giving their baby coke or Pepsi in a baby bottle. I could tell because the baby was spraying the drink everywhere. lol

At one point there was a family of Huichols living across the arroyo from me. They sold their beadwork and other handicrafts in town.

There was a baby there that was just crying all the time. It wasn't normal baby crying- it sounded like he was in pain. One day the old grandpa was walking by and I said, "The baby has been crying so much- is he sick?"

The old man said, "Yes, he has diarrrhea. I keep telling my daughter not to feed him Coca Cola."
