God my teeth wish i had just stopped drinking soda a decade ago. It wasnt even that hard to kick

How much of that was soda, and how much was it access to preventative care?

If you're drinking soda daily, your teeth are coated in acidic liquid for hours a day. This is incredibly damaging to your enamel.

I would posit there’s an overlap between those who drink cola daily and limited access to healthcare.

Dental care is cheap and insurace is usually sub $100/month (at least in the US)
