Paan is consumed only by the adults but Soda ads are watched by the children and they consume it sometimes more than the adults. Pediatric obesity is the most prevalent childhood disorder and almost an epidemic.
@Black: Thatโs exactly what I said- selective outrage!
Buddy, I happen to be a medical professional. Even so, I'm more outraged about the paan rather than the cola.
Secondly, the verbiage, *selective outrage*, indicates it is a problem to be more outraged by certain things. Or you wouldn't even need to ask the question.
It's the same kind of nastiness perpetrated by those who ask *so why aren't you getting outraged about child abuse* to those who work for perhaps animal rights.
We are all allowed to have things we feel passionate about.
