Coke and Pepsi Lose Market Share to WATER!
Its true! Americans are finally waking up to realize water is the best beverage around. Waiters and bartenders no longer look at me strange when I order water with lemon. I buy bottled water by the gallon, and am happy drinking it warm or cold. In fact a gallon jug of water sits on the floor beside my desk. It usually takes about 2 days for me to empty a gallon so, I guess I drink about 2 quarts a day or more.
So what is Coke and Pepsi doing about their problem? You guessed it, they are both bringing out vitamin fortified cola drinks. By fall you will be able to get your basic vitamins combined with chemical artifical sweeteners, artifical colors, artifical flavors and more sodium than your body needs in a month.
Thanks, but no thanks!
I am sure that a certain portion of Americans will go for the new marketing strategy. Perhaps, it will be a good thing for Coke and Pepsi junkies. I will stick to my water, my Pro Vitamin Complete, and my healthy diet.
Eating Heathy,
Tim
