Forget about who leads the WB. Ultimately the US is going to call the shots. Coming to the fizzy and the snacks, we should be "uncomfortable" with the product itself. Pepsi/Cola has 12 to 13 table spoons of sugar and added to it, a preservative called phosphoric acid. The snacks like potato wafers and pizzas have high content of fat with zero fibre content. In India we are having IT professionals whose staple food is Pizza with coke. And this segment of people are having the highest percentage of diabetes and arthritis. Gone are the days where we had Jowar roti/ chapatis with fresh vegetable subjis. Should we not educate the people of the subcontinent about the junk food? Believe me, eating pizzas and washing it down with Coke/Pepsi is the most lethal combination of the so called comfort food.

"Moral Canundrum",Vulnerable people" ??This was exactly my question in one of your article about nuclear arsenal.In that article you had mentioned an incidence about your journolist friend asking a begger lady on Delhi street about being proud of her country's successful nuclear blasts.Where was his "moral conundrum?"Now you have mentioned it so let me ask you something, are you opposing Mrs. Nooyi just because she is an Indian??
