In 2004, Dasani bottled waters were taken off the shelves in the UK, as high levels of bromate were found in the water. This led to Coca-Cola recalling over 500,000 bottles across the country, as long-term exposure to bromate has been linked to cancer risks. In 2012, it was announced that Coca-Cola nixed the plan for Dasani’s Europe expansion, which would have reportedly cost around £70 million....

The queen was a regular fixture in American living rooms, both as fiction and figurehead. For better and worse, she was the queen of TV. Her coronation in 1953 was watched by some 20 million in Great Britain and many millions more in the United States, and around the globe, on a tape delay.
