    Foodwatch criticism and Golden Windbag awards

    Foodwatch Germany awarded Smartwater the Goldener Windbeutel, arguing that the brand presented a scientifically styled distillation process as a meaningful advantage even though it offered no proven nutritional benefit. The organization also criticized the premium price relative to ordinary water. Smartwater received the Dutch Gouden Windei consumer anti-award in the same year. Coca-Cola rejected the criticism and said its labeling followed applicable regulations and that consumers valued the product's taste.
