The line in the sand was drawn in 1991 when MC Hammer was doing Pepsi commercials while Coke had C+C Music Factory in its commercials. I've been with Pepsi ever since. Some errors in business judgment are so bad they can't be forgiven.

I rarely drink regular and diet soda. If I do go for the regular, it’s from Mexico in those glass liters at the Mexican markets or restaurants. With that said, Pepsi and Coca-Cola are equal in taste in the Mexican form.

Do sugarcane farmers need supporting? I assumed sugar is going to be purchased regardless.

Your signal has been clearly received

have not had Coke since Trump asked us to boycott the company in March of 2021 when Coke objected to the voting law in Georgia.


Can’t tell if you’re serious.

Dr Pepper is the soda of choice in Texas and border states.

Pepsi sucks arse and tastes like dip spit.

All soft drinks are poison, drink water or iced tea.

You're only boycotting coke because there's an easy alternative. It's like the folks who think they deserve a medal of honor because they won't shop at Dick's when Academy is next door.

I care about the sugar cane farmers about as much as they care about me.

I have never knowingly paid for a pepsi in my life.

This doesn't count water, gatorade, etc, that may fall under the umbrella.

If a restaurant says they have pepsi, I order water or tea. But honestly, if a restaurant has pepsi, I usually just choose another place to eat.

If you think pepsi isn't woke... lol.

Not really. Coke has greater market share in the south, but Pepsi is everywhere outside of restaurants.

I went to Pepsi's website to see if they still use LA cane sugar and saw this: Nitro Pepsi

Apparently they came out with Nitro infused Pepsi and Vanilla Pepsi. I'm not much of a soft drink drinker other than an occasional Abita Root Beer, but this may need a try.
