bottled water

Okay, so what is the deal with this Pepsi lawsuit? I just read that Pepsi owes 1.26 million dollars to two guys who claim they invented bottled water and that Pepsi stole the idea.

So, these guys came up with an idea in 1981 for a secret new drink. Then, 15 years later, Pepsi came out with Aquafina. Which, these guys claim, used their secret formula to make millions of dollars.

What secret formula, you ask? Putting water...into a plastic bottle.

WHAT?! Putting water into a bottle is a secret formula?! Are you kidding me?!?!?! I'm pretty sure water was being put into a bottle before Aquafina came out. Why aren't these guys suing Poland Spring as well?! They were doing it before Pepsi!

I can't understand how this even made it to court. And they just decided to sue this year. How did they not notice bottled water for the past 28 years?

I…I'm just...I am so confused by this.

I'm off to drink water from the hose. I don't want to get sued.

Enjoy!
