How Soon Is Too Soon For Soda?

I am grateful that my mother never allowed "soda pop" in our home, except for "healthy" 7Up for upset stomachs. That was bad enough!

How soon is too soon for soda? In this satirical ad, the 1950's "Soda Pop Board of America" says "not soon enough!" Unfortunately, our covert, modern-day marketeers aren't quite so funny.
Small print reads: "Laboratory tests over the last few years have proven that babies who start drinking soda during that early formative period have a much higher chance of gaining acceptance and "fitting in" during those awkward pre-teen and teen years.

So, do yourself a favor. Do your child a favor. Start them on a strict regimen of sodas and other sugary carbonated beverages right now, for a lifetime of guaranteed happiness."
