That doesn’t help. You can already buy large bottles of soda, or multiple bottles of soda, for your own use at home.
The question is, could a restaurant sell you the ingredients, and have a machine in the store that they could use to mix their own soda. Except that is silly, because the law allows refills. So you could already get a 16-ounce cup, and they could charge ten cents a refill, and 1 buck for the cup (if the law doesn’t allow free refills).
The stores don’t mind so much, because it gives them an excuse not to sell a pitcher of soda, which makes less money for them than the individual cups.
Of course, every theme park I go to, I have a refillable cup that is more than 16 ounces, and get cheap refills. Fortunately, nobody is stupid enough to build a theme park in downtown new york city.
I wonder if Coney Island is covered under the law?
Only restaurants are under Mikey’s purview such that he can impose the law on them. Convenience stores are thus exempt, and what people can’t buy at their fast food place they can stop in and purchase at their 7-11 or whatever.
Utterly senseless.
