A large majority of participants in the statement of the day think this is a good idea. No less than 77 percent agree with the statement: there should be a ban on energy drinks in supermarkets. Sales banA minority of 22 percent, on the other hand, thinks a ban on sales in supermarkets is a bad idea.

Ban altogether.” Leaflet for energy drinksAnother participant in the statement thinks that is nonsense. ,,I would say ban all alcohol in supermarkets! It is also better to sell alcohol only in liquor stores. Can they come up with more?” This reader chooses the middle way. “A lot of alcohol, paracetamol, sugar, etc. is also harmful.
