32oz is a ton of soda tho.. Even when I was a teen at 6'4", 32oz of soda would be a sickening addition to a meal.

Perhaps you're not American, but Gallup reports that among those who drink soda in the USA the average daily amount is 31.2 oz

  • 32 oz, if I'm converting correctly, is a little shy of 1 liter. If so, that isn't a big amount really, especially daily.

  • > among those who drink soda > average

    Two factors in your statement that lead me to believe 32oz is still a boat load. What's median and 75th percentile? I imagine the distribution here is non linear across the soda drinking population.

  • Depends how it's measured.

    16oz of store-bought soda is not the same as 16oz of restaurant soda, at least 30% of which would be ice.

    I wouldn't trust Gallup to report with nuance.
