Some people in Mexico don't have access to water because of coca cola, so they pretty much don't have an option. Also diabetes is very bad, I'd say "deadly."

Fuck Coca Cola.

The original point I was making is that the use of the word 'addiction' was incorrect, firstly it throws the blame back onto the Mexicans which is a misdirection and secondly it makes the idea absurd by the comparison of the ill effects of Coca Cola with those of truly addictive hard drugs like heroin, thereby minimising the problem.
