    Idk… here we have similar tax and that caused what expected more offering of sugar free versions and trying to sell you that instead. That said some of the sugar alternatives…have it’s own issues.

      We too have sugar free versions, but those cost the same as sugar ones while they include no sugar tax but more profit instead.

        Yeah… But still that is a good thing, as they know they can get more profit with the sugar free version so they push those more to people.
