The idea of a liquid beverage with a nutritional edge is great, but when companies go out and sell 'vitamin water' with 32 grams of sugar... that is 8 teaspoons of processed sugar!!! well, that's alarming! Exhibit A for an oxymoron. Check out this label from a popular brand made by Coke. Oh, yes, it's the real thing. Real liquid sugar. A disgrace to the word vitamin and to H20. Read more on this here.
