Nobody should be drinking soft drinks, anyway. Drink water, booze, and maybe coffee.

I haven't had more than 3 or 4 "soft drinks" since the 1980's, probably one of the healthiest decisions I have made after quitting smoking in 1990 and vigorous daily exercise throughout...

now if I can rid myself of my potato chip addiction I'll be good to go..

Drink tap water. In many instances, your tap water is better than bottled water and less acidic.


I have a 3.5 gallon Berkey filter. It was a great investment. Awesome filtered water.

Even if they renounce the previous statement on the new law, they still want you to be less white.

Woka-Cola is off the menu.

Too late. My house has already replaced coke with more juices and replaced Powerade with Gatorade. No more coke products here

Screw them.

I’d love to see that class action case claiming that their products cause diabetes make it through the court system and wipe them out.

This right here.

I only drink bottled water if it is the only thing available and someone else paid for it.

People bitch about the cost of gasoline, but never stop to realize that bottled water is WAY more expensive than gasoline, and it ain't even close.

20 oz. bottled water costs $.99 on a good day.

1 gallon = 128 ounces

6.4 20-ounce bottles = 1 gallon

$.99 x 6.4 = $6.34

BTW - Coca-Cola makes Dasani bottled water. It is not pure water. There are additives, but Coca-Cola still makes a shite ton off of every bottle sold.

Screw that and screw them.

A company so well-run for decades shouldn't have made this mistake. The cost should be a new board and management team.

A soft back pedal isn't going to fix it, I don't think.

When politics becomes a moral platform from which judgement is levied against the other, politics has become a religion

Disani brand bottled water is a Coca Cola product, so ditch that too.

I never really felt the need to spend $2.50 on water before. Brilliant marketing, though.

We believe you should make coke and shut the frick up about things that have nothing to do with making coke. No one cares about what you believe is the best way to do anything but make coke.
and quit making that disgusting orange vanilla coke.
