This time around the New York City Health Department is utilizing YouTube for its anti-obesity campaign.
Love them or hate them, these campaigns definitely stir up emotion as can be seen from the hundreds of comments rolling in across the web and social media. Comments range from "It got me...I'll never drink soda again. " to "Nothing like spending millions of tax dollars on this silliness."
Some folks believe that shock-advertising grabs your attention and makes you think, while others believe it can be downright insulting.
What's your opinion?

This particular ad certainly has me thinking, as I have been drinking soda again once in a while after I had stopped for 10 years.
This post made me confused and troubled as i have been an advocate soda drinker. Thanks for your post though.
dan s. I don't feel that having an occasional soda is an issue and I'll admit to having a cola a handful of times a year myself.
With that said, the average American consumes 57 gallons of soft drinks per year - http://www.nationmaster.com/graph/foo_sof_dri_con-food-soft-drink-consumption
Hence, the problem.
Bryan, I find your response interesting as you mentioned being confused and troubled. I'd love to hear your thoughts in regards to this ..... I get that your a soda advocate so in your opinion, is this ad campaign mis-leading?
