Yeah, that’s honestly not cool.  Sure, they probably didn’t mean any real harm by it, but honestly.  (Also uncool to ruin somebody’s perfectly good fruit punch/milkshake/latte.)  In college, I spent some time arguing with people and going through that crap, but in the end, “Look, I just don’t like it, okay?!  Stop trying to feed it to me!” won the day.  Since then, it’s less of an issue.  People are often surprised if it comes up and I say something, but they generally don’t cling to it.
