Mom Accuses Me of Giving Her Daughter an Eating Disorder over Sparkling Water

A simple birthday party turned into an unexpected conflict when one of the moms accused me of trying to give her daughter an eating disorder over flavored sparkling water. Despite having a spread of pizza, wings, and brownies, she took issue with the La Croix her daughter was drinking, claiming it was a diet product. I was surprised by her aggressive behavior and couldn’t understand why she was so upset. It was especially strange since both she and her daughter were obese . I never imagined that providing flavored sparkling water would cause such a fuss. Was I in the wrong for offering it at the party? I’m looking for some outside perspective on this situation.
