While I knew there would be a lot in terms of trans fat bans occuring as well as other changes in food, I never thought that caffeine would be added to food. And yet, someone wants to do it.
Caffeine in donuts.
The man who wants to market these says he could put in 100 milligrams of caffeine, which is the same amount in a 5-ounce cup of coffee. However, research says that this could be dangerous. 12-ounces of soda pop has between 30 to 55 milligrams of caffeine, so just this could equal more than 36 ounces of soda pop.
Personally, I don't drink coffee, but I also try not to have too much caffeine, mostly because if you are addicted to it and don't get it, it's nearly impossible to function.
There is just so much caffeine out there, do we really need to add more? Also, this could lead to an increase in donuts, which are certainly not good for anyone's health.

No, I didn't! I'll have to look into that.
