Title: France bans free refils of soft drinks
Post by: A&S&O on January 27, 2017, 01:04:35 PM
The BBC are reporting that France has banned the selling of drinks with free refills.

So, will restaurants like Plaza Gardens comply, or will they find a way around it?

What about the self serve juice machines at breakfast?

This has been reported a long time ago, but I'm also curious how this will work out at DLP.
Maybe they use this loophole (from the same article):
"All public eateries, from fast-food joints to school canteens, are affected."

Restaurants INSIDE the park are ofcourse no public eateries. Maybe that makes a difference?

Well, I think they are public eateries. As of my understanding non-public eatery is someone's dining room. As smoking is forbidden in all public interior places (eateries included).

I think this is a good idea for fighting against health issues connected to overweight. Many people do not realise how many calories soft drinks contain.

When we went in the summer we were told that there was no refillable drinks in plaza gardens, you got 1 then had to buy any more after that.

This was in place when we last went. No refills anywhere.

That's going to make the new Five Guys at DLP poorer value than in the UK. The drink (soda) price is for unlimited refills in the UK.

sure, free refill can be a nice thing, but I can never forget about how thousands of people repeatedly put their cups (which already has their saliva and therefore potential germs on it) in direct contact with the outlets. So, no more refills could at least have a better effect on everybody's health
