lol, not sure what the requirements are for notification in a class action but I'm pretty sure this one covers like 95% of the entire US population. I don't even like most of their stuff and rarely buy sodas but can't say I haven't bought anything from the brand in the last decade.

Seems like Coca-cola might be doing it too, see similar patterns in pricing, corpo explanations

We could have the govt send the check out to every citizen. Then again we are still waiting on the doge and tariff checks to come in the mail.
