We have found three inadvertent errors in our paper published in Nutrients [1].

On page 498, text line 8, the words in brackets “~600 g per person per year, Figure 6” should be amended to “~600 g per person, Figure 6”.
On page 500, text line 17, some words were missing. The amended sentence reads “Food industry data indicate that per capita sales of low calorie (non-nutritively sweetened) beverages doubled from 1994 to 2006 while market share of nutritively sweetened beverages decreased by 10% points.”
On page 502, line 2, the words “increasing by 300%” should be amended to “increasing 3-fold”.

These changes have no material impact on the conclusions of our paper. We apologize to our readers.
