Getting a decent soda there is impossible

Putrid Pepsi everywhere

I mean, Pepsi is everywhere regardless where you go. That’s not an NC thing at all. You see the same amount of Pepsi at a gas station in Raleigh as in NYC or Chicago or LA.

I agree with the analogy above, Pepsi is like a girl you run into in Dubai and find out she was born in the Outer Banks but got adopted and moved away when she was 2. Cheerwine is the girl who grew up to be the biggest smokeshow in her hometown and now has a Luke Combs song written about her.

I can’t speak to ‘everywhere’, but on Long Island generally the only places with Pepsi are (some) chain restaurants.

“Is Pepsi okay?” (no) is generally not a phrase I hear here.

Must have been miserable with the Caps. But clearly he's more with the Alex Semin route.

Makes me wonder if the Russian factor with the Capitals will die down.

Yeah I’m pretty sure Pepsi’s entire business model is landing contracts with bulk clients like chain restaurants and entertainment venues. I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone actually buy a Pepsi in a store. It’s always that you get stuck in some place where it’s take-it-or-leave-it.

The whole “is Pepsi ok” thing has become a meme with service workers. Nobody ever says “yes” to that and actually means it.

1. Didnt Pepsi have to buy Taco Bell so they could get into the market bc nobody wanted to carry them?

2. Im a hydro homie .. bc Im a beer drinker. Gotta limit that sugar intake.

Go Kuz!
I think pepsico owned KFC, Taco Bell, and one other chain at one point in time maybe Long John Silvers? I'm pretty sure they sold. Also PepsiCo strength was the other drinks it had. Pepsi itself was always am so ran to Coke, but Sierra Mist, and Mt. Dew run rough shot over 7up and Mellow Yellow
