Cosmopolitan

The Cosmopolitan has an unclear history but seems to date back to the 1970's.  This drink experienced a popularity surge in the 1990's when it became the favorite drink of Carry Bradshaw in the Sex In The City show.   The Cosmopolitan is made with Absolut Citron vodka, Roses lime juice, tripe sec and cranberry juice.

UCSF Researchers say products with added sugar should be controlled just like alcohol or tobacco. They are  advocating that the government take control of the situation because the citizens are unable to do so. The solutions they suggest include doubling the price of sodas via a sugar tax, put age restrictions on purchase of products containing added sugar and legislate which stores are allowed to sell products with added sugar.

Do you favor making sugar a government controlled substance like alcohol and tobacco?
