Doug Loates wrote in his letter swearing off the beverage company for life. "Think about it. I bet you’d be pissed off if you had a Fiona in your life… Can you imagine if SHE had opened this bottle?" The Loates family did not immediately respond to ABC News’ requests for comment. Representatives for Coca-Cola have since stated that the language inside of the cap was the product of a competition pairing one random English word with a second random French word. In French, "retard" means "late" or "delayed." The word’s English connotation was missed during the review process, said a spokesperson.
