Hey guys something completely off-topic but I'd like to know if its the same in your Country as for me it feels like Drinks and Foods getting more and more sweet every few years.
Especially the stuff claiming to be sugar free uses so much other stuff to make it disgusting sweet.
I also mailed some companies a few years ago already asking why they have to sweeten up everything so much and they replied that the customers want it that way.
No Idea which customers they are asking but at least here in Germany I know a lot of people who also say that most stuff nowadays is disgustingly sweet.
I don't mind sweet stuff from time to time but even bread and spicy foods often include sugar. Lots of stuff where you wouldn't think that there is sugar has it but at least it often doesn't taste sugary.
I even tried several dietary foods and powders and all if it was super sweet, most of the dietary stuff had artifacial sweeteners but some even had real sugar like if they want to say "fat people only eat sugary stuff so we need to sweeten our products so much that they will puke from all the sweetness".
Sadly there doesn't seem to be any interest in regulating stuff like this in my Country, at least in the UK they highered Tax on sugar which made many companys use less, don't know if they changed to artifacial sweeteners tough or if their products are still super sweet or not but I think their government at least did something to prevent much more people to get diabetes.
