Quote:
U.S. sales of Diet Coke overtook those of Pepsi-Cola for the first time in
2010, making the diet soda the No. 2 carbonated soft drink in the country
behind Coca-Cola
"Pepsi-Cola commanded only a slight lead over Diet Coke in 2009, when each
brand had slightly less than a 10% market share among carbonated soft drinks
. That year, regular Coke won the cola wars with a 17% market share)

("PepsiCo says it is the world's first bottle of a common type of plastic
called PET made entirely of plant-based materials. * * * Traditional PET
bottles are made with fossil fuels")
Note:
(a) The phrase making hay is short for "making hay while the sun shines."
make hay: "to make use of a situation or circumstance especially in order to
gain an advantage"
www.m-w.com
(b) PET stands for polyethylene terephthalate. You can see its chemical
stucture in
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyethylene_terephthalate
(c) Press release: PepsiCo Develops World's First 100 Percent Plant-Based,
Renewably Sourced PET Bottle. Pepsico, Mar 15, 2011.
http://www.pepsico.com/PressRelease/PepsiCo-Develops-Worlds-Fir
("Combining biological and chemical processes, PepsiCo has identified
methods to create a molecular structure that is identical to petroleum-based
PET (polyethylene terephthalate), which results in a bottle that looks,
feels and protects its product identically to existing PET beverage
containers")
The press release does not say how.

My comment: There is no need to read it. Just take a look at the graphic,
about competition between Subway and McDonald's and titled A Foot Long but a
Dollar Short.
(4) Carol Kaesuk Yoon, No Face, but Plants Like Life Too; Vegetable behavior
, and other ruminations on what we kill so we can eat. New York Times, Mar
15, 2011.
http://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/15/science
/15food.html?scp=1&sq=Carol%20kaesuk&st=cse
My comment:
(a) The author ruminates over whether humans should eat plants--fungi?
microbes?--because they all have a life. Only fruits are meant for food (so
that seeds can spread); milk has no life. Even grains and FERTILIZED eggs
are living.
(b) But this is not my point. There is no need toread the article. Just
check out the graphic titled A Century of Meats.
(5) Melissa Clark, Once a Villain, Coconut Oil Charms the Health Food World.
New York Times, Mar 17, 2011.
http://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/02/dining
/02Appe.html?scp=1&sq=oil%20wholefoods&st=cse
My comment:
(a) The author wondered why Whool Foods Carries coconut oil and why theaters
uses this oil (not butter) to pop corn.
(b) The science part of this report started with the sentence: "But before I
get to the cupcakes, let’s start with the science." This part ends in the
paragraph that began with "It seems safe to say that if I eat it just once
in a while."
You should read at least this part and the last five (5) paragraphs.
(c) lauric acid
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lauric_acid
(a saturated fatty acid with a 12 carbon atom chain; the main acid in
coconut oil and in palm kernel oil (not to be confused with palm oil))
* Etymology: "from Latin laurus laurel; from its occurrence in the berries
of the laurel ( Laurus nobilis )"
Collins English Dictionary - Complete & Unabridged 10th Edition 2009.
