Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Ask The Gunwriters Anyone drink Pepsi?

That is what the "ignore" feature is for, friend. Now if I could only ignore that avatar..

If you guys want to boycot Pepsico. Pepsico owns tocobell, KFC, and pizza hut too.

I'm a Coke man, myself. I wouldn't walk across the street for a pepsi.

My Grandpa always use to say that if it ain't fit to drink straight up, it ain't fit to drink. He would have slapped me up the side of the head if he caught me stealing his 4 Roses whiskey and putting it in soda pop.

So I don't drink Pepsi or Coke.

Though I would much rather Pepsi not donate a dime to HSUS, I understand that all large corporations try to hedge their political bets by donating to all sides of the political issues. If they think they will get $250,000 worth of profit from the HSUS types, without losing the same from us, they will do it.

Wrong.

Except every time you make a post indicating you're "ignoring" me, you're not. It means I have your attention, you don't like it, but you can't do anything about it. I suppose in some oddball way it's good for your ego to state this publicly from time to time.

We owned a bar in Washington once and an otherwise resonable woman used to ask for Mac Nauton's finest with diet pepsi, I charged her double for ruining perfectly good whiskey & she gladly paid it, no sense to other people's taste, (her husband told me to charge her triple & leave out the Mac, seems he liked Mac & water & couldn't explain her either)

Don't like the junk, or this govertment the last 4 years

Perhaps their website is wrong:



That must be it. You might let them know they got it wrong.

Or, most likely, you're just too damned dense to do much reading:

"Brand Portfolio
Tazo tea, Ethos water, Seattle�s Best Coffee and Torrefazione Italia Coffee."

Let me know if you can understand any of that.

I'm not sure what you're trying to argue about. Yes, blue cheese is moldy, but what's the point?

You do understand that Pepsi doesn't own Seattle's Best and Lipton, don't you? That's my point.

I could have sworn that the only thing you "brought up" was how right (and smart) you wanted everyone to know you were.



The point that people have been trying to make, in spite of whatever you're trying to refute, is that Pepsi has its hands in a lot of things (and brands). And I'm sure that every drink or other item it lists as one of its brands makes the Pepsi company, however you wanted to describe it, money with every sale. Therefore not buying, if boycotting happens to be one's choice of a statement, means the company takes a small hit. Brand control is a form of ownership.

No, I just wanted to show everyone how sweet I am. Almost as sweet as you.

Except they don't OWN those brands. You do understand that, right?

Jeff Gordon drinks pepsi. That alone is reason enuf for me to boycot them

We were given free CoKe products for our Tea Party and that is enough to secure my brand loyalty for life.

Used to be, whenever a Democrat was in the White House, all federal buildings changed to Coke. When a Republican was in, they switched to Pepsi.

These boycott posts continue to amuse me.

I just entered a comment on their website, and they responded to me in a cordial manner. Just send them your thoughts.
