That was before they started using high fructose corn sugar instead of sugar.

The comments are a riot but some are exactly right. She’s drinking a 6 oz bottle of coke made with real sugar. If she only has one a day or less, no worries as long as she brushes her teeth lest she get cavities. Today everything is supersized, therefore the people are also supersized.

She’s sewing a dress, Einstein. You couldn’t buy cheap sweatshop fast fashion at H&M back then.

“That was before they started using high fructose corn sugar instead of sugar.”
It’s true .. today’s Coke is not the Coke of 1961, and back then they would drink only a small bottle vs the 20 oz of today. I remember when they introduced the 12 oz cans, they seemed huge, then on to 20 oz, etc.

Even cavities are probably due more to genetics than behavior. I lived off candy and soda as a kid, and had none. Brushed my teeth when my parents reminded me.

Or like most folks back then, the tap water they drank had fluorine in it for cavity protection.

But as a kid, I remember going for the 7oz 7UP/Pepsi/RC over the 6.5oz Coke...

ah, you went for the BIG bottle!
Those bottles were so useful .. some people lived on collecting the deposits, or moms would plug in a spritzer to make it a sprinkling device for ironing.

Yep - back in the ‘50s and ‘60s, coke machines had 8 oz bottles and folks who used them might be taking a break (gas station attendants/mechanics for instance) and would hang out by the machine for ten minutes of chewing the fat, finish the soda, rack the bottle and be back to work. A soda was part of a short respite and not a way of life.
