Coca-Cola Fiber+

Coca-Cola Fiber+ or "Coca-Cola plus" is a diet variant of the soft drink Coca-Cola with added dietary fiber in the form of dextrin.[1][2] It was developed by Coca-Cola Asia Pacific and launched locally in Japan during March 2017. The soft drink has been approved by the Japanese FOSHU as a functional beverage[1] and is meant to serve as an option for health-conscious consumers who have varying desires when it comes to beverages, such as sweetened/non-sweetened, more/less caffeinated, or in the case of Coca-Cola Fiber+ more fiber.[2]

Drinking one Coca-Cola Plus per day with food will help suppress fat absorption and help moderate the levels of triglycerides in the blood after eating. … so we hope people will drink it with meals.[1]

gollark: You can do that by sticking an HTML file on the server too.
gollark: Basically, Github cannot magically solve any problems with this, but there aren't horrible ones anyway so meh.
