"Green" Coca-Cola

This is ludicrous, but not surprising.  Coca-cola is now trying to fool consumers into opting for an "organic" version of coke called Coca-Cola Life.  This article from treehugger does a good job of showing the ridiculous aspects of the venture as well as discussing the real environmental progress of the Coca-cola company in terms of "greener" bottles.  Overall, however, its still coke and its still bad for you no matter how they color it.  Of note, companies like this are still taking advantage of consumer ignorance regarding the low-calorie craze.  Low-calorie is tantamount to starvation.  You need calories to fuel your body.  Eating low-calorie, high-sugar foods is extremely unhealthy and can lead to a host of metabolic-related ailments.  The way to a healthy life is through high-calorie real food, which is low in sugar.
