New Bespoke Product for the Rich: Olipop Cream Soda
Olipop cream soda has only two grams of sugar but it’s actually too sweet, sickeningly so. Probably because of the stevia.
Olipop makes a bunch of claims about digestive health and contains a bunch of unusual herbs like marshmallow root. Jerusalem artichoke inulin? Okay.
This was a sample but guessing it’s one of those beverages you see at Whole Foods that costs $3.99 per can.
While the plebes drink 39 grams of sugar in their can of Coke — and pay a regressive tax for doing so — the elites drink herbal concoctions with two grams of sugar and calendula flower.
Such a cruel world.

UPDATE: Yup. $2.69 per can, or $16.14 for a six-pack.
