Your intake of sugar absolutely impacts other people when you end up with chronic health issues that other people have to help pay for.

Sugar doesn’t just cause obesity, it also causes all kinds of cancer. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9775518/

And sugar is not a necessity. www.hsph.harvard.edu/…/added-sugar-in-the-diet/

You will get by just fine without sugar in your diet. I didn’t say we should ban food, I said we should ban sugar. You’re struggling to show me why it’s so different from tobacco.

The only real differences are 1) everyone loves sugar, so they’ll make up a reason for the double standard and 2) public consumption doesn’t immediately hurt other people. But then I never said I was opposed to banning smoking in public so that’s actually irrelevant.
