How is this just not a cheaper soda then? There is literally no incentive to get a soda cup that's several times the price. Originally, there was at least an honor code of sorts at least theoretically, but now they've dropped all pretense of that so why should anyone give a fuck?

Some states (CA and NY?) require restaurants to provide tap water free to customers if requested. I'm sure if Chipotle felt it was worth the extra money they would have the employee fill the water cup at their own sink, like every other restaurant does, or use a transparent cup for water, like every other other restaurant does.

Thus it's obviously a fake article (but the top tweet, as a standalone, is likely real).

Nope
Now please explain how somebody owes you a cup of water, leach.

[Anonymous No.18909867]

The soda is probably cheaper than the water

I believe in my state that all businesses that serve food are legally required to give anybody water that asks for it, free of charge.

Some places will give you shitty sink tap water though.

>Soda water costs them fractions of a penny to make.
It costs them 1 cent for the ingredients to make the whole meal. Economy of scale is a thing, yknow. Or did you need a special /pol/ .jpeg schizo infographic to explain it for you? A simple google is too hard for ya, champ?

I'm personally waiting for the Pudding Pouch™2.2
That shit's going to be a game changer at the mall.
I'm told it even has a snap-TiTe® secondary pouch if you wanted to alternately use it for securing your spaghetti and sauce separately.

So they are saying I can solve the obesity crisis by ordering a water cup, filling it with soda, dumping it out, and filling it again?

This. I worked at a wings place years ago and the only people who asked for water cups were basketball-Americans. They weren't even sneaky like filling the cup with a clear soda, they'd straight fill it with Coke. We'd call them out and they'd throw a fit. Imagine having no accountability and being able to play the victim your whole life...
