The mandate would require companies to put health warning labels on advertisements and billboards.<\/p>\n<p>Similar to cigarette companies whose ads warn customers about risks caused by consumption, soda ads will need to incorporate the phrase &#8221; WARNING: Drinking beverages with added sugar(s) contributes to obesity, diabetes and tooth decay.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Starbucks argued this was unfair treatment when doughnut and <a title=\"Best Bakery Point of Sale Software\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sintelsystems.com\/our-software\/bakery\" target=\"_blank\">bakery shops<\/a>, who also serve high sugar and calorie items, were not being targeted.<\/p>\n<p>According to Bloomberg, 93 Starbucks <a title=\"Best Coffee Shop Point of Sale\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sintelsystems.com\/our-software\/coffee\" target=\"_blank\">coffee shops<\/a> would be affected by the ordinance. Any signs promoting their signature drinks would need to be tweaked in accordance to the law.<\/p>\n<p>Sanja Gouold, a spokesperson for the company, stated the coffee shop giant is reviewing the law &#8220;to evaluate the impact.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Bloomberg noted a 12oz Frapp has more calories than a 12oz can of Coca Cola.<\/p>\n<p>Although the measure does not extend to all of Starbucks drinks, frappuccinos are not exempt.<\/p>\n<p>The final vote will take place on June 16, than continue to the mayors for approval.<\/p>\n<p>Other similar ordinances include prohibiting ads on city property and city money will no longer be used to purchase sugary beverages.<\/p>\n<p>This came into play after voters rejected a measure to tax beverage companies. Neighboring city, Berkeley approved a 1 cent per ounce tax.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\"><a class=\"bloglink bloglink_left bloglink_right\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sintelsystems.com\/our-software\/coffee\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-10607 size-medium\" title=\"Best Coffee Shop Point of Sale Software \" src=\"https:\/\/www.sintelsystems.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Sintel-System-Coffee-Shop-POS-Software-270x300.png\" alt=\"Sintel System Coffee Shop POS Software\" width=\"270\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sintelsystems.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Sintel Systems<\/a><\/span><span class=\"s1\">\u00a0is the only direct to end user full-service for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sintelsystems.com\/point-of-sale\/food-service\/coffee-337\" target=\"_blank\">coffee shops POS<\/a>.
