re: Am I a snob for insisting on namebrand soft drinks at Christmas dinner?

I find all the soft drink hate on here hilarious.. sure, it’s not exactly healthy.. but how many trashy fights between relatives have been caused by having too much Sierra Mist, versus overdoing it on , i dont know- Jack Daniels, Crown Royal, Wild Turkey or even Coors Light?? Again, not saying that pouring carbonated water and sugar down your throat is the best idea- but i dont get the disconnect when discussing what’s “appropriate”- alcohol drinks that, if overconsumed will get you a DUI or a horrible accident.. if you drink too much Mr Pibb at Christmas dinner, the worst that’ll probably happen is you’ll belch more.
