The Sugar in Energy and Soft Drinks Turned Into Lollipops

August 13, 2015 by Chris Durso

News flash… Energy and soft drinks, even the ones that are supposed to be “good for you,” contain an obscene amount of sugar. And, there may be no better way to illustrate this point, than to represent the soft drink sugar in lollipop form.

Artist Henry Hargreaves is up to the task, with his project (de)hydrate. Hargreaves started by boiling the soft drinks down, until only the sugary remnants remained. The sugary mixture is then poured into molds, labeled with the drink name, and impaled on a lolli-stick.

Even Vitamin Water, when all of the drink’s asserted health benefits are taken away, is nothing more than a giant sucker. See more below.

Totally Gross Soda

March 27, 2012 by Chris Durso

And you probably thought we were talking about Mountain Dew again. Totally Gross Soda is an actual line of pop by Avery’s Beverages. The seemingly disgusting flavors include titles such as; Bug Barf, Dog Drool, Kitty Piddle, and Monster Mucus.

But read the fine print, or dare to take a sip, and you’ll discover a delicious fruit-flavored beverage sweetened with cane sugar. Well then… pass me a bottle of Kitty Piddle!

Pop vs. Soda

September 15, 2010 by Chris Durso

Displaying an eerie similarity to America’s divide over politics, Pop vs. Soda shows the country’s preference towards how they reference their soft drinks.

So there is a good chance that those who call their Coca-Cola ‘pop’, also have a ‘Palin 2012’ bumper sticker on their pickup.

Do you ‘Go for a pop’, or ‘Have a soda’?
