    I dunno, it feels like kind of a stretch to be angry at them for you not looking at the label or calories.

    It says it’s flavored, and if you turn the can at all it says it has agave in it, and then it has calorie information and the list of ingredients.

    It’s kinda on you the read the ingredients if you care in my opinion.

      Please name another brand that calls itself flavored sparkling water that has sweetener in it.

      La Croix doesn’t.

      Bubly doesn’t.

      Polar doesn’t.

      Perrier doesn’t.

      Waterloo doesn’t.

      As far as I know, the only brand that advertises itself that way and is sweetened is Liquid Death. I consider that dishonest. I don’t think I should have to look at the ingredients label in that sort of situation.

        Spindrift. Clearly Canadian.

        If something says it’s flavored water it’s totally on you to check and see if those flavors are sweet or have calories.

        If it were difficult to read the label of find the information I’d be more sympathetic to the complaint, but in the mango drink you mentioned, it’s literally on the side of the can, maybe a quarter turn?
