The taste of sugar is acquired through eating sweater foods, it can be reduced by reducing the level of sweetness in foods and drinks by replacing sweetness foods/ drinks with fruits juice diluted half and half with water. During meal time when kids are Thirsty give them water for the first glass and diluted juice for the second. Don't give them sweets, cola as a threat. Send them to school with fruits rather than money to buy sweet, when they become older and have pocket money they are likely to crave them or develop an addiction.
