Corporations Time to ditch Poppi

Post image

Poppi is now owned by a mega corporation. The quality is probably going to go down. Time to ditch it.

These are $2.50 a can, I ain’t buying regardless of who owns them.

Never saw the hype in this too cause of the price.

Yeah like wtf even is this, artisan soda? That's got consumerist hyped up bullshit all over it!! Same as how a lot of "organic" and "eco" labels have been totally perverted to be consumerist buzz words. Just drink some fucking water.

If hydration has to be fun and tasty put some lemon juice in it or get your own used soda maker. I drink a decent amount of loose tea and that's pretty much replaced all my need (well, wants) for anything not water (whole milk slaps too). This isn't a solution to the consumerism of drinks, it's another form of exactly that.

It's superfood soda. Hype with no benefit. The price point was always atrocious, their marketing is terrible, and the Superbowl fiasco this year.
