Coke and Pepsi are not owned by the same company. Coke is owned by The Coca-Cola Company and Pepsi is owned by PepsiCo.

This has been an interesting thread.

Started about Synthetic and Petroleum oil and is now about soft drinks.

I wish I'd had a camera years ago when I saw a sign in front of a convenience store that said:
"WINE--BEER--KEROSENE"

Coke and Pepsi are also distributors. They might have their logo on things so it shows who's distributing them?

Our corner store keeps the nightcrawlers and red wigglers in with the potato salad.
