But, butterbeer really sucks!....
Harry Potter is getting grief for throwing in with the Coca Cola company as a sponsor.
"The bottom line is that an adored literary phenomenon is being
put to work to sell more junk food," said Michael Jacobson,
CSPI's executive director and founder of a website called
SaveHarry.com
What these people have apparently overlooked is the delight that the children in the Harry Potter books take in stuffing themselves with rich, gooey "junk food" at almost every opportunity. On the train to Hogwarts, Harry and Ron are almost up to their eyeballs in a huge variety of sweet treats--some quite bizarre, and certainly not "healthy"--that they gleefully gulp down on the trip.
Get a life, guys.
