Some people jusrt like to be seen carrying these cups. I read about someone who put their Starbucks coffee in a generic travel mug, and their friend said to them "how will everyone know youre drinking Starbucks?"
Except, isn't Herbalife something that's never branded? My cup had some smallbiz-seeming name on it. Definitely not Herbalife.
I subbed to an anti-MLM subreddit in the past, and that's the exact shifty behavior they removeded about Herbalife having. I just hadn't seen it.
Im gonna be honest, I know of Herbal Life in name only, we dont have it here.
Their Schtick is that people start Herbalife "franchises" under another name, but then serve Herbalife. I believe they are generally not supposed to use the word "Herbalife" anywhere on their merchandising.
Thanks.
