Panera Bread’s Charged Lemonade blamed for a second death, lawsuit alleges
nbcnews.com
Panera Bread’s highly caffeinated Charged Lemonade is now blamed for a second death, according to a lawsuit filed Monday.
Dennis Brown, of Fleming Island, Florida, drank three Charged Lemonades from a local Panera on Oct. 9 and then suffered a fatal cardiac arrest on his way home, the suit says.
Brown, 46, had an unspecified chromosomal deficiency disorder, a developmental delay and a mild intellectual disability. He lived independently, frequently stopping at Panera after his shifts at a supermarket, the legal complaint says. Because he had high blood pressure, he did not consume energy drinks, it adds.

I would argue that stating an amount per 8 oz is completely meaningless, and that we should instead state the amount in each cup size that the restaurant sells
Seems pointless, especially if free refills are involved. He could have just as easily drank 11 8-oz cups if they sold them in that size. All it does is make it sound crazier at first glance without changing anything about the facts.
