SOUND THE ALARMS: Pepsi Perfect From “Back To The Future Part II” Is Finally Being Released
BuzzFeed ^ | 5OCT2015 | Brian Galindo

Posted on 10/06/2015 5:14:49 AM PDT by Jack Hydrazine

The ’80s classic Back to the Future Part II isn’t just one of the greatest sequels of all time. It was also a visual feast for the eyes that gave us an (exciting) peek at what 2015 MIGHT look like.

But the movie also left us wanting a few things that we hoped would be available by 2015, like Marty’s bad-ass Nike self-lacing sneakers…

…the iconic AF hoverboard…

…and of course, the oh-so-cool looking Pepsi Perfect bottle.



Well, Pepsi finally delivered and created Pepsi Perfect!!!



According to USA Today, the limited-edition Pepsi Perfect (which is Pepsi made with REAL sugar) will be released online on Oct. 21 (aka *Back to the Future day) and set you back $20.15.

(*Back to the Future day is October 21, 2015, the date that Marty, Doc, and Jennifer arrived in 2015 in the film.)

Pepsi even released aesthetically perfect commercial to celebrate the release:

The only thing I have to say is: Your move, Pizza Hut. I want my dehydrated pizza!!!

Shampoo came in glass bottles up until the 1970s. And in those days you showered in an enamel-covered iron tub. Dropping a glass bottle in there could be problem, I suppose. But, although I grew up in a family of 11, I have no remembrance of such a disaster ever occurring in our house.

I remember the glass bottles of White Rain - and I don’t recall ever breaking one, either. Maybe we were unconsciously more careful ;-)

I still don’t like salad dressing in plastic bottles; it just seems....wrong.

It seemed like we always used Prell.

I agree about the dang plastic bottles. I hate them for any kind of food. Stopped buying bottled dressing, though. I usually make my own these days.

Wasn’t Prell the one where, in the commercials, they dropped a pearl in, to show how slowly it sank, which indicated how thick the shampoo was?

That’s still the only shampoo my husband will use. (I remember when it came in tubes for awhile, but I don’t see the tubes anymore...)

“You can already buy Pepsi in my area in 12 pack cans with real sugar. It is called Pepsi Trowback and touts real sugar like back in the day.”

I tried some of that, and my palate is so used to HFCS that it didn’t even taste as good, let alone better.

Universal Pictures released a Jaws 19 trailer to commemorate the film as well.

Your post made me chuckle because when I mentioned Prell, the pearl thing came to my mind also. Very successful advertising theme, huh?

As a matter of fact, one of the younger kids in my family dropped a pearl into the family’s bottle — just a fake pearl, of course — and it stayed there until the bottle was emptied. I guess my mother decided it was not worth the mess to get it out and it wasn’t hurting anything.

I can still see the shape of the bottle — very curvy and the bottom flared out. Ah-hah, I went looking, and here it is. About halfway down the page. (Some other memory joggers there, too.)

There’s that word again. “Heavy.” Why are things so heavy in the future? Is there a problem with the Earth’s gravitational pull?
