McDonalds did refills for a while but then stopped again, idk why ¯\(ツ)

I don't know for Germany but free soda refills are illegal in France

Why?

Why does France seemingly propose/executes the worst and/or weirdest things.

This is almost on this level: https://blog.mozilla.org/netpolicy/2023/06/26/france-browser-website-blocking/

Because sugary drink are one of the leading cause of obesity, so rather than inciting people and children to drink more soda it's much healthier to offer free water and paid drinks.

With the same idea vending machines with soda or sugary snacks are not allowed in schools anymore.

On the other hand everything that France government is doing around internet and privacy law is pure nonsense, I agree with that.
