I wonder who came up with this marketing strategy because they obviously had to step up to their competitors. Does anybody know?

I prefer coke so always ask for that but most restaraunts dont tell me they dont have it they just give me a pepsi thinking that I wouldnt know the difference!

And that's amazing how much profit there is in a single drink of coke. @GoldCoaster: That’s really interesting, I didn’t know they go that far into the deal.

A friend worked at a theme park and was told they could drink as much coke as they want becuase it only works out to be around 5cents a cup - not bad seeing it sells for $3.95. I prefer Coke over Pepsi - not quite as sweet (it has a little more salt that cuts the sweetness down. Still has a ton of sugar.
