Reply to comment by StuffinYrMuffinR in Lawsuit claims mini bottles of Fireball Cinnamon don’t actually contain whisky by TheAngryBlackGuy

Diet Coke, Coke, Caffeine Free Coke, and Coke Zero all have very different colour schemes on their label for that reason.

If someone tried to grab a Diet Coke or Caffeine-Free Coke and instead got a full sugar and full caffeine Coke that could be problematic for someone with diabetes or an allergy.

Selling an alcohol-free drink at alcoholic drink prices in a bottle that almost exactly look like the whiskey bottle (https://media-cldnry.s-nbcnews.com/image/upload/rockcms/2023-01/fireball2-te-230124-ca8046.jpg) feels like a scam.

It’s not alcohol free. It’s just half strength malt liquor, rather than whiskey.

So you agree, it looks the exact same as the whisky bottles, but it doesn't contain whisky.

Or, to use your coke analogy, it looks identical to a coke bottle, but the ingredients say it contains aspratame instead of sugar.
