“Pepsi gets aggressive on cutting sugar”

Pepsi says it's getting serious about cutting sugar from its drinks. The global food giant said on Monday that two -thirds of its single serving drinks will have 100 or fewer calories by 2025 as it cuts back on sugar. Currently, less than 40% of its drinks have 100 calories or fewer. Pepsi. Co which also owns brands including Gatorade and Tropicana -- said the change was driven by shifting consumer needs and new dietary guidelines from the World Health Organization. Many customers have tapered their intake of high-sugar, high-calorie soft drinks from Pepsi due to worries about sugar consumption. But at the same time, diet beverages have also been falling out of favor as consumers worry about chemicals in their drinks. Both Pepsi and Coke have been trying to adapt to changing consumer tastes. "The company will continue to refine its food and beverage choices to meet changing consumer needs by reducing added sugars, saturated fat and sodium levels in its product portfolio, " Pepsi said in a statement.
