Coca-Cola argued in court that "no reasonable person" would believe that Vitamin Water was healthy or good for you.

"It's ok to exploit people if they're gullible or vulnerable"
I remember reading this. Fuckers.
My high school took out our soda machines because they were “unhealthy,” and replaced them with Vitamin Water and Minute Maid juice (eg, sugar water). In fairness, I’d never expect a district administrator to be a “reasonable person.”
Vitamin water does have about half as much sugar as soda so that's a bit of an improvement.
Given the brands you mention I bet they have a contract with Coca-Cola or those machines produce a nontrivial amount of profit such that the machines removal is disincentivized.
So they replaced it with other sodas that paid more...
and ... did the argument pass? o.O
