Have you seen the new Pepsi logo? It's also all over the NBC sporta desk tonight where Olberbite & Costas are sitting. Not that I ever drank it but no more Pepsi for me.
Sea Monkey!
Iffin you get to live in the great state of NY, you’ll get to pay 18% more for the privelige to enjoy.
I never could get a pepsi down my throat; now I see why!
More like a scimitar...
I live on Pepsi One and Pepsi Max. I don’ care what they put on the can, I’m not giving it up. Can’t stand Coke.
same group that saw a cross behind Huckabee and cost him some support.
Come on, guys, you have to flip the logo - which didn’t change much at all from the last one - to make this connection.
That being said, the old logo is way, WAY better than the unsettling look of the new one. The new one reminds me of a heaving stomach about to throw up.
And ALL of them contain high concentrations of deadly dihydrogen monoxide.
Yea, each time I see the logo I think it is an Obama thing, I had no idea it was Pepsi.
In October 2008, Pepsi announced they would be redesigning their logo and re-branding many of their products by early 2009. In 2009, Pepsi, Diet Pepsi and Pepsi Max began using all lower-case fonts for name brands, Mountain Dew has been renamed “Mtn Dew”, and Diet Pepsi Max was be re-branded as Pepsi Max. The brand’s blue and red globe trademark became a series of “smiles,” with the central white band arcing at different angles depending on the product. The new imagery is starting to be used. In the case of Pepsi, the logo has the medium-sized “smile”, while the new lower-case font used on Pepsi’s products are to be reminiscent of the font used in Diet Pepsi’s logo from 1975-86.
I don't know how much money (or favors) was paid for the new logo, but rotating Studebaker's last - or nearly so - logo 90 degrees and adjusting the colors a tad would have done the trick and cost nothing.

Crap. I thought it was about chemtrails and tacamars.
My husband mentioned the changed label a couple of days ago. He also mentioned that it looked a little too much like the Obama logo to be a co-incidence. I wonder when the change took place? Before or after the election?
We are done with Pepsi, too.
Are you insane? The logo is supposed to be a smile (doesn’t look like one to me, but that’s what I read in the marketing mags). You’d stop buying a product because something kinda sorta maybe looks like something connected to Obama? Did you stop buying Proctor and Gamble products because of the moon and stars logo?
I think the new logo looks like a feather.
Wait, feather = dove = peace = liberal moonbat Muslim appeasers who hate our troops and voted for Obama.
Ok, now I'm outraged!
Diet Coke Sweetened with Splenda was introduced in 2005. It is the seventh variant of Diet Coke. Diet Coke with Splenda contains 2.83 mgs of caffeine per fluid ounce. The drink includes Sucralose and acesulfame potassium instead of aspartame.
I don't tolerate Aspartame very well.
No problems with Sucralose (Splenda) and acesulfame K (Sweet-One), though...
Monkey see sea monkey.
Ok, this kind of reminds me of when my cousin, in the 2nd grade, tried to convince me that Dodge was bad. Because of the Ram (Looked Satan) seal. Oh, and some toothpaste was bad because it had a muslim symbol (crescent and star or something).
I just looked at her like she had lost her mind.
