Actually, I think they'll probably sell way more water bottles this way. The main thing keeping people from buying water on campus was that it was Dasani...
I'm pretty sure Le Piazza is stocking Eska water now, so there should have been some there.

If you want cans of Coke products Willy Dog outside the Student Centre still sells cans, although they're $1.25 each now its still one of the better prices for a drink on campus. Plus its Coke and not icky Pepsi.

it's not just about the coke/pepsi... it's about the other brands (vitamin water, nestle, fuse etc) that were under it too. |

That and they don't taste the same, Pepsi tastes much sweeter and is much too sweet for my tastes.
Now they seem to have a lot of more fancy expensive drinks and less of the good stuff like cheap iced tea. Hell no I'm not paying $2.59 for a bottle of that new Tradewinds stuff when I could have had a bottle of Nestea for under $2.

So true. I don't even want to try it, my friend said it was awful. And yes, I don't soda too often, but when I do, it's coke all the way. I miss the variety.
Also, what's going on with water? Is it just Eska now?? Just curious.. |

It's not just coke and pepsi. There were all these coke products that are no longer available: vitamin water, fuze, arizona tea. lots of people enjoyed these.
Good job voters.

As far as I can tell this had nothing to do with that idiotic referendum last year and the deliberately misleading no side.
The University made a decision to sign an exclusivity contract with Pepsi Co and they don't seem to give a shit about student opinion.

Coke and Pepsi do not taste the same. I refuse to drink Pepsi (even at restaurants, I'll order anything else), so it looks like Union Market will be getting all of my pop business.
