LaCroix is "effectively in a free fall" amid declining sales and rising competition, according to a new research note from Guggenheim Securities.
"The LaCroix brand has gone from bad, to worse, to disastrous in a relatively short period of time following negative media attention regarding the 'natural' claim of the brand's flavoring ingredients that surfaced in October of last year," analyst Laurent Grandet wrote.
A lawsuit last year alleged that LaCroix contains artificial ingredients, which is contrary to the company's "all-natural" marketing claims. LaCroix has denied the claims in the suit.

Crude oil is all natural.
Course, I don’t know how she eats nutella either.
BOL! One of our younger relatives with good intentions gave us a jar of it. We tried it once.
Then, we used it instead of peanut butter for our mice/rat traps, didn’t work.
LaCroix was caught watering it down?
I never liked water, so I drank iced tea, until yr and a half ago when I tried plain sparkling/seltzer water on ice. Man that stuff is sooo good. I drink 2 liters/day!!! I am very hydrated. I introduced it to hubby, and he loves it too. We load up when on sale.
In the end of course you are right.
I won’t ask what the stay was for but it obviously had a profound effect on you.
I hope you are well now.
Zero calories.
Aspartame.
Been doing it for over five years.
“LaCorix”, is that French for “theCrotch” ?
Remember the French ‘started’ with EVIAN...
Did you ever bother to hold it up to a mirror or just look at it backwards from here?
What a great thread. I just sent your remarks to an elitist, who orders EVIAN instead of local water.
Topo Chico...super fizzy bottled warer from Mexico is the geatest thing ever
Ice cold out of a glass bottle on a hot day its better than cold beer...which is saying something
LOL
Since all the comments seem to be negative on this thread, I will stake out a contrarian view.
I thoroughly enjoy LaCroix, especially the lime flavor.
Cold, fizzy, flavorful and no calories. It’s always been a winner for me.
Ever try a soda stream?
No need to load up when it’s on sale...
Are there any unsweetened, unlemoned bottled teas. I drink iced tea that way and cannot fine any bottled tea that is unsweetened and unlemoned.
Maybe they cancel each other out?
My friends brought It to me, along with other such poisonous American crap non food, when I was moving into new house. I tell them oh thanks very much and put it away
I tell them I can’t consume anything with ‘natural flavor’ in it. It is masked MSG and my body reacts to it regardless of whether I want it to or not
They look at me. All screwy
These are people with science degrees. Doctorates. No comprehension. So I take it then throw it away later
People can’t read a label?
They still think a product ad doesn’t lie?
Yep. I'm drinking "Bubbly" by Pepsi. They come in many flavors. I love them so much to the point that any sweetened soda now is just too sweet.
Personally, I think there's a market for "semi-sweet" soda with less sugar (and not less sugar supplemented with an artificial sweetener, just less sugar). When I do drink soda, I like the cans at room temperature and poured over ice. This melts the ice just enough to water it down, cutting the carbonation and the sweetness a little bit to make it more palatable.
Actually, "Bubly."
I prefer Hamms. It’s the water.
I second the up vote for Topo Chico. Great stuff - especially for chasing tequila. I will gladly pay a 5% tarif for it.
