It was a lot of people's jobs for months now creating some special bottle and box for this PR moment... none of this should exist. It reminds me of stories about the Middle Ages, where people would come before the king and shower them with gifts to make sure they are appeased.
Apparently Coke does this shit for every presidential elecrion and governors too but this is the only time it was diet and hand delivered by the ceo.
A graphic designer could whip that up after lunch.
It's not even a good box. Kings are rolling in their graves, truly the worst timeline on many fronts.
