Published on 25 Oct 2011
IT is Scotland’s other drinking problem. In a public building, a child needs a boost. He slots a coin into a machine and waits for the comforting clunk of a can.
He rips it open and guzzles the contents, feeling the energy flooding through him. The fix will last a couple of hours before the process begins again.
Children in Scotland drink more fizzy drinks than in any other European country, even after the withdrawal of fizzy-drinks vending machines from schools. Worldwide it is reckoned that only Israeli youngsters down more.
