Went to a drink store (Getränke Markt) in Aachen, Germany today. To my surprise I saw that all local soda brands were almost sold out(Fritz, Afri, Sinalco) and Coca Cola was almost not touched. I was very pleasantly impressed by this. Seems like more people are joining with the small consumer choices to buy from EU rather than US. Do more people notice this elsewhere?

    First I switched to ice tea sparkling from lipton (before joining the movement) and now I just buy store brand soda’s instead. They’re at least a bit more healthy and are so much more price competitive! I don’t drink much so it saves me at most 10 euros a month but buying 1L of cola for almost 3 euros vs 1.20 for 1.5L store brand is insane
