The sugar cops of France

From the New York Times:  In 2004, France banned vending machines from schools. In 2011, it limited servings of french fries to once a week in school cafeterias. A year later, it imposed a “soda tax.” On Friday, the government said no restaurants can offer free refills of sodas and other sugary drinks.

There once was a child from Marseilles
who liked to drink soda all day.
The gendarmes arrived
and had him deprived
of life, liberty, and frappe.
