Cadbury had a nice 2006 despite the decline of CSDs

i guess all those versions of dr pepper paid off.

The 2006 Coca-Cola Enterprises annual report is out now if someone's interested...

still no sign of coke zero.

Does anyone have a link for a list of more than the top ten beverages, like the top 50 or a hundred? Just curious to see where my favorite drink, mello yello stands.

What is CSD?

Is it Consumer Soft Drink?
Is it Consume Soda Daily?
Is it Confirmation of Soda Delivery?

i believe it's "Carbonated Soft Drinks"... so it includes sodas and energy drinks like Red Bull. but not gatorade, flavored waters or juices.

If I am not mistaken energy drinks are not included in the CSD category. I may be wrong though, I am just a poor dumb soda man.

the article says that energy drinks (like Red Bull, Rockstar) are part of CSDs. Gatorade and Powerade are not... since they're not carbonated.
