You're right, it is a drug after all. It just happens to be legal like nicotine and caffeine. But given the ubiquity of it in western society, most people don't see it as something really bad. Everyone knows it's bad in large quantities, but it's probably a lost cause trying to convince people that even small amounts of it are bad. Most people I've come across in my lifetime have this notion that "everything is ok in moderation." I've always wanted to say "is poison ok in moderation too?"
This argument is used for consuming just about anything ranging from alcohol to high sugar content soft drinks to all kinds of animal products. In reality many things (like refined sugar) are not good for you in
any quantity, but try telling that to most people...
