    Wouldn’t the price go up irrespective of which side you tax it on?

    Not necessarily, companies might just stop putting sugar where it doesn’t belong. They do it right now because corn syrup is free and why don’t just put it everywhere.

        I wanted to like stevia when I first tried it, but I find it has a chemical taste, maybe leftover solvents from the extraction process. But it tastes like aspartame to me, which also tastes awful.

        I’d be happy with just less sugar used. Shit doesn’t need to be so sweet.
