‘Please don’t’: Woman says she’s in hospital with congestive heart failure, but begs Panera not to discontinue charged lemonades

Recently, Panera insiders revealed that the chain would be discontinuing its “Charged Sips” line of drinks. 

This news comes on the heels of several controversies involving the product. Numerous internet users have criticized the drink for its high caffeine content, and there have been several hospitalizations, deaths, and lawsuits connected to the beverage.

While Panera appeared to attempt to mitigate possible issues by preventing guests from refilling the drink themselves, it seems these efforts were not enough.
