If you care a bit about your health don't drink that poison ☠

Would have thought booze and cigarettes would have been more of a go to for comfort during stressful times. Guessing sugary sodas are much easier to get for a greater number of people. Betting carbs in general (even with the food chain disruptions) will be much more popular.🍰

Water is cheaper comfort. And that's not including the cost of insulin.

I TINK I KNOW THE BOTTEL .. BUT THAN THE SMINOF VERSION

CNN and Coca-Cola both WOKE. I'll stick with Pepsi.

👏 👏 💯 👌 👍
