First of all soda and energy drinks are not addictive like cigarettes...
Nobody walks into a CVS and a clerk puts a gun to the customer head to make them buy a sugar laden drink...

What? Where are you going with that?

I wondered the same. No one does that for any product.

What? Where are you going with that?

My point is cigs are addictive, and people will smoke even when they know it's a bad unhealthy habit...CVS seems to not want to contribute to that problem...

We have free association to buy products we want...soda and energy drinks are not addictive so everybody makes the decision on their own to buy them...

Why would CVS drop them even when they do pose a health concern when people freely buy them by choice...as opposed to cigs...
