You have a lot of untruths in here --
*loaded with sugar (diet ones are loaded with aspartame aka cancer)
Aspartame and cancer is a myth.

*carbonation is bad for you
No it is not.
*uses distilled water - which naturally absorbs things because it is "empty". So it can absorb toxins as well as VITAMINS AND MINERALS
What a laughable idea. Where do you people get this?
*addictive
Not true.
*dehydrates you more than hydrates you
Also false.
*High in sodium
?? Compared to what? Soda is NOT "high" in sodium.
*virtually no health benefits
Granted. But that's not why we drink it.
*save yourselves! Drink water!
Water might be more "healthy" for you, but "save yourselves"??
PUHLEEEZE!!

I wish i knew.... probably marketing.... that's all.
Soda is pure poison... no matter how you look at it. The sugar content alone of one can of soda is unreal. Think of how many people drink a half dozen or more sodas per day? The diet sodas are not much better. As a matter of fact, a study came out recently that showed strong ties to heavy soda drinking and osteoporosis.
Drink water.... you'll live longer

It's refreshment, and fast food restuarants don't generally serve water, except soda water- soda water is often terrible.
