Between this and the capsaicin chip, maybe you should have some regulatory entity checking foods

A man drank 2.5 litres of caffeinated lemonade, totalling 1100+ mg of caffeine. He then died.
Theres probably a co-morbidity because the LD50 of caffeine is like 5000mg.
Honestly its safe to expect most Americans to have some already existing heart condition
Still kinda irresponsible for them to put something stronger than energy drinks in a self serve drink fountain. They labelled it with "390mg caffeine per large serve" expecting the average American to know metric or have any frame of reference outside of people that read the FDA website (which also for some reason says 400 mg, in metric, for the recommended daily intake for an adult)
"warning drink too much and you'll fucking die"
would be my suggested warning
