Coca-Cola’s Freestyle fountain comes equipped with a touchscreen that is able to mix flavors on the spot, using precise machinery originally developed for dialysis and cancer treatments. There are **over 100 flavors available** , across an array of drink brands, including Coke, Fanta, energy drinks, flavored waters, and more. When you select a drink, you’re able to select from a variety of flavors, some of which are unfamiliar (Raspberry Coke?! Peach Fanta?!). Instead of large, five-gallon bags of pre-mixed syrup, the Freestyle PurePour system uses ultra-concentrated 46-ounce cartridges to mix drinks and allow for a greater array of flavors, all coming from one spout. There are also RFID tags to keep track of all the different flavors held inside the cabinet and their current status. ---

My company has some pretty neat gadgets already, I wonder if they would go for this. We saved money on marketing expenses this year, so I feel caffeinating our employees would be money well spent from our budget on productivity instead. :lol ---

This could help NYS out a lot if they adopt it along with Obama’s so called Soda-Tax plan to combat obesity as part of the healthcare agenda. $.13 more for each can would equal $$$$$$$$ for NYS. ^ Disclaimer:I am being sarcastic and do not agree with soda-tax ---
