Wouldn't the health damage from coffee be much bigger than from "soda and snacks"?

No. There's mixed evidence about whether coffee is moderately good/moderately bad/neutral for you in sane quantities (i.e. a few cups a day). There's plenty of evidence that eating salty/sugary sodas and snacks is bad for you in similar quantities.

What makes you think there is health damage from coffee? All the evidence I've seen points to health benefits.
