PepsiCo CEO Indra Nooyi (Globalist, America-Hater, Obama-Lover, Company destroyer)
I have refused to use pepsi products since her speech with her fingers representing the major countries — and guess which finger ended up representing the USA...?
And least it's owned by the Brits now...
This arrogant, incompetent “genius” as been running Pepsico into the ground like her good pal Obama is ruining the country.
There is a certain intangible value to that.
This isn't the first time, I've read the same thing in other years - that Coke held the #1 and #2 positions. Diet Coke is the only cola drink at my house. Nope, we are not over weight either.
Whore B*&#H
Pepsi has come a looooong way since being the small time soft-drink company out of North Carolina, good ridance!
I love diet Coke but can’t stomach Pepsi. Too damn sweet.
Good. Pepsi is a huge supporter of the homosexual agenda, and after I learned about that a few years ago, I stopped purchasing Pepsi products altogether. I prefer Dr Pepper (Coke product) anywise. But, as much pop as I drink, the loss of my business alone probably cost PepsiCo at least a dollar of stock value!
So Pepsi supports hussein eh? Well, I choose not to support Pepsi with my $$$ then. I won't support their support of that un-American, anti-American socialist/fascist.
However on a positive note Pepsi is switching to again using real sugar instead of corn syrup. If only Coke would follow that lead.
don’t ask me why but Coke products seem to taste better than Pepsi ones.
I have tried both and I much prefer Coke products over Pepsi.
Diet Coke is much better than diet Pepsi.
It makes and sells dozens of other products, including Doritos-brand chips, the Tropicana juice line, and Quaker Oats cereals.
The company decided to spin off its restaurant division in 1997, for example, which made its KFC, Pizza Hut, and Taco Bell holdings into a separate company.
The company sold a dazzling range of snack foods and beverages, from Mountain Dew to Rice-a-Roni, from Captain Crunch cereal to Gatorade-brand sports drinks. It also owned the makers of Doritos-brand snacks and Aquafina bottled water.

Nooyi’s Graduation Remarks
Here is the commencement speech that set off a blogosphere bonfire
Following is the transcript of the address given by Indra Nooyi, president and CFO of PepsiCo (PEP ), at the Columbia University Business School graduation ceremonies on May 15:
This analogy of the five fingers as the five major continents leaves the long, middle finger for North America, and, in particular, the United States. As the longest of the fingers, it really stands out. The middle finger anchors every function that the hand performs and is the key to all of the fingers working together efficiently and effectively. This is a really good thing, and has given the U.S. a leg up in global business since the end of World War I.
However, if used inappropriately — just like the U.S. itself — the middle finger can convey a negative message and get us in trouble. You know what I’m talking about. In fact, I suspect you’re hoping that I’ll demonstrate what I mean. And trust me, I’m not looking for volunteers to model.
What is most crucial to my analogy of the five fingers as the five major continents, is that each of us in the U.S. — the long middle finger — must be careful that when we extend our arm in either a business or political sense, we take pains to assure we are giving a hand...not the finger. Sometimes this is very difficult. Because the U.S. — the middle finger — sticks out so much, we can send the wrong message unintentionally.
Unfortunately, I think this is how the rest of the world looks at the U.S. right now. Not as part of the hand — giving strength and purpose to the rest of the fingers — but, instead, scratching our nose and sending a far different signal.
I don’t know anything about the CEO’s politics. I hate the hideous logo and laugh “community service” ad focus is causing the marketshare decline.
Coke Zero rules!
