Generally, those I know and I agree: we would, in all seriousness, sacrifice our Coca-Cola, our gummy candy, and our chewing gum if it meant an end to the genocide in Darfur.
Guess I'll be sticking with my organic fair trade coffee regimen for caffeination.
EDIT: More research shows that when questioned by the Washington Post, Coca-Cola stated that they do not buy any gum arabic from Sudan and haven't for some time. Pepsi, by contrast, refused to comment. So I guess Coke is actually the safer bet.
