Good to Know: Ingredient Facts
Straightforward information.
Science-backed. Your choice.
When it comes to what we buy for beverages, we all want the facts, no opinions or recommendations. That’s why America’s beverage companies have launched “Good to Know,” a new, consumer-facing initiative designed to give everyone access to science-backed data about the ingredients in their beverages.
This national initiative is supported by Florida’s beverage companies as part of our shared commitment to transparency.
