  1. Its amazing that this product hasnt been banned from being advertised to children by the FDA; then again, this is the same country that allowed McDonald’s and Camel Cigarettes to advertise directly and indirectly its unheathy products to children in the past. A lawsuit and national media attention was needed before those companies were forced to halt its grossly misleading marketing campaign. One must also note the nutritional information shown above is for 1 CUP. There are two cups in these bottles of processed childhood diabetes, increasing the caloric amount to 280-400 calories per bottle and upwards of 58 grams of sugar. It is criminal that these two companies are allowed to market this crap
