ehh, I think it makes sense in that it eliminates perverse incentives like "give us 50 cents more and you can double your already extra large soda," but as implemented it was certainly just a lazy band-aid solution
If any sugar soaked beverage is allowed to be marketed as a health drink, that's a problem that applies to the entire industry.
And drinking 90oz is the fault of the consumer, remember how much blowback there was when New York banned selling drinks above a certain volume? The people want to be able to do drink ungodly amounts of soft drink, apparently.
Only thing I really blame Panera for is not clearly labeling how much caffeine is in a cup, which I also don't really blame them for because the last time I went to Starbucks or McDonald's I couldn't find out which latte had the most caffeine, so that's standard behavior I guess.
Push for more required disclosure if you'd like, I'd probably agree, but Panera was not out of line IMO.
I don't know how that's a response to me but thanks for the funny clip
