the profirs are falling because they keep taking good products off the market and come out with stuff that tastes like junk. plus they redid their packaging and all that printing costs money. their products also are tasting flat and watered down too.

I don't think their 8 packs are making it........

Pepsico is talking about the Food Pyramid. They want to push healthy snacks. Pepsi is a good buy at 49.

Everyone would be better off health wise to not drink flaorored carbonated drinks anyone, It nothing bu sucrose, flavoring and carbonated water. Big proft makers for a drink that makes you fat and eats the enamel off your teeth. Just asy no to them.

We have discontinued purchasing pepsi products also due to their strong support of obama and gays. The prices have gone through the roof and we have begun using generic brands also. I still purchase a coke now and then when i can find them on sale, after being a dedicated pepsi drinker almost all my life, I will never purchase a pepsi product again no matter the price. Thanks pepsi, you screwed up big time.

Yup, coke and pepsi prices have skyrocketed this past year and they wonder why sales are down, recession or not, people see high percentage increases and will boycott.

They are down billions but, HEY, they beat estimates.

Well with prices almost doubling in a bad economy I can see why we buy less soda myself included

I actually had to use my credit card to by a 20oz. bottle of coke! It now cost you $1.75 for what used to be a $1.00 a year ago. What's funny is a bottle of beer only cost me a buck during happy hour. Maybe Coke and Pepsi ought to look into happy hours. SYKEL said it bet: DRINK BEER NOT SODA!!!!!
