Seems like the better solution would retire all plastic bottles and start selling reusable bottles and have fountains in the stores but I guess that requires too much infrastructure change or w/e Actually it's bc the thing that keeps soda companies in business is the 20oz package. We make roughly a dollar per bottle sold. To put that in perspective the margin on 24pck of cans is like a nickel per. The cost of installing and maintaining a fountain machine with the options available in 20oz just wouldn't work.
