*SHUDDER* As much as I love cola (and you know how much that is) I am aware of what is in it and what it can to towards loosening rusty bolts. I'm also in charge of regulating how much I get, and when I should switch to a different drink. As a baby can do neither and is still growing and needing all the good nutrients he/she can get, it's negligent to make it a regular part of the diet. /rant I had my first sip of pop at age 5, from a neighbour/friend of the family. The only fries I had ever had at that point were the baked in the oven, (with the exception of a rare dinner out). It's a horrible stereotype, but it's SO often that I see overweight kids eating candy, pastry, chips etc. If they're young enough to be with their parents, the parents are usually doing the same thing. There's the rolemodels right there.
