What I see is: “Continue the good work, the boycott is working.” 👍
Ever since Trump became president and began to threaten allies with all kinds of shit, I stopped buying American.
And although Coca Cola is bottled locally, it remains an American brand with money going to USA for the secret sauce and licensing.So 100% buy a truly European/local brand instead.
PS: Here (Denmark) Coca Cola has been half price for I think it’s about 4 months straight now, and I love it every time I see it’s still sold at a reduced price.
PPS: Coca Cola is exactly among the companies we should boycott, because we get next to nothing from them, all we get is a bit of vastly overpriced added flavor, and Coca Cola gets almost all the money and the brand recognition to continue to dominate markets.
You forgot the resource extraction to create the product and the environmental damage and pollution that results :(
I wrote a paper in community college about externalized costs and I’ve never been the same since. This was 20 or so years ago
I really like Cockta, used to be owned by a Slovenian company, currently by Croatians. Still european!
So you’re saying cockta tasta gooda?
Very much so 🤌
Also, it can be replaced by an alternative European product that tastes almost the same
RE: PS. Holy shit those clowns have a nerve, they just plainly admitted that they charged us twice the amount for the product and the whole COVID-inflation was their own made up story.
This is not because of COVID inflation, Coca Cola was always about twice as expensive as local brands, but now they have reduced the price to match one of the more popular local brands.
It was always obvious that coca cola was a massively advertised overpriced product.
Hmm, maybe you are right. Maybe both. Either way… as you said - something worked if they had to act.
don’t drink another drop of that wretched drink.
wet plastic company
Probably not though, since the cola wars are not exactly a new thing.
Isn’t the coke syrup actually made in the US and shipped to the world, where it’s mixed with local water?
Yep, you’re right. Coca-Cola ships the concentrate (not exactly syrup) from a few US facilities to local bottlers worldwide. The concentrate contains the secret formula ingredients, while local bottlers add sweetener, carbonated water, and handle packaging. That’s why boycotts can be effective - the high-margin concentrate business is where most of thier profits come from.
Yes
I was pleasantly surprised when we tried a new burger place the other day and they served us Fritz Cola.
The real hipster cola people hunt for
