The brochures are going out to retailers about the ban.
No more 2 litre bottles of soda with your pizza delivery.
No more pitchers of soda at your table at Chuck-E-Cheese.
No more carafes of mixers at bottle service bars.
Nothing larger than 16 oz is allowed in NYC..NOTHING.
Retailers are surprised to say the least. They thought it was just soda sold by the cup.
A state judge on Monday stopped Mayor Michael Bloomberg's administration from banning the sale of large sugary drinks at New York City restaurants and other venues, a major defeat for a mayor who has made public-health initiatives a cornerstone of his tenure.
The city is "enjoined and permanently restrained from implementing or enforcing the new regulations," New York Supreme Court Judge Milton Tingling decided Monday.

I thought they just said the soda ban was finished, nobodys taking Bloomberg seriously and they're ignoring the law. Just like they'll do to Obama and any attempt at new anti gun legislation.
"Arbitrary and capricious"......the two cornerstones of liberal ideology. Couldn't have asked for a better ruling from this judge!!
Indeed. It's a relief to see that there is still some common sense around. I hope many businesses who wasted money and time preparing for Bloomberg's law sue the pants off of Mister Billionaire to recover their losses.
