Pepsi Cola Consumer Reviews - Page 5

So far I have come across 4 12-packs of 12oz cans with expiration date of April 20, 2009 that all have an iron/metallic/blood taste. It is pretty obvious especially if you taste a normal Pepsi for comparison. Sent it in and tested positive for high iron content, they wouldn't say how high. Probably because iron can be fatal in high doses. Also a lot of iron can cause constipation which explains some things. I purposefully take non-iron multivitamins for this reason.

Anyway, I am not the litigious type so I just took the coupons. I should probably send them the receipt for the MiraLax I had to buy (stuff is expensive). What irks me somewhat is that it was obvious to me that they had no intention of pulling the product. I searched the web and couldn't seem to find others with this problem.

We love Pepsi Cola food, especially Taco Bell, but every store we go into is freezing cold (including KFC, AW, etc.). The workers are wearing t-shirts while the paying customers are wearing winter jackets. When we (and others) have complained they turn a deaf ear because it is too hot in the kitchen and they don't give a crap about the customers! This is not rocket science guys. If the kitchen is too hot in the summer then close some of the AC vents to the public. If it's too hot in the winter then close the heat vents to the kitchen and open the ones to the patrons. If you can't figure it out call a plumber!

MADERA, CALIFORNIA -- All my life I have been a big Pepsi fan and would not change to another brand. I love Pepsi, Mountain Dew and Sierra Mist. Recently I became aware of the new can Pepsi is about to market that is quite patriotic. In order not to offend customers Pepsi has the Pledge of Allegiance on the can without "GOD".

Therefore I would like to inform Pepsi the they did in fact insult and offend me a believer in GOD and the fact that every states' constitution has GOD in their slogan. This country was placed under GOD by our founding fathers and it is a complete insult and slap in the face of every United States Citizen who believes in GOD. So I am hereby informing the PEPSI company that in under no circumstance will I purchase another PEPSI product.

MICHIGAN -- I want to congratulate, the Pepsi cola company, in awards to having the best tasting cola I've had. Pepsi is the only pop that I will drink. and it is wonderfully delicious. I've been drinking it for years, and have got my mom and a lot of my friends hooked on it. I always have 2 liters upon 2 liters in my garage. I'm always drinking a Pepsi, and I can't go threw a whole day without having one. The taste is so wonderful, and I am very grateful for it. Thank you so much. You guys have great.

NEWTON, ILLINOIS -- On June 22, 2006 at approximately 5:45 pm my son was eastbound on RT. 33 between Deitrick, Il and Newton Il, when a westbound Pepsi Semi Driver swerved across the center line side swiping my son, knocking him off in the ditch on the south side of the rode. The Pepsi driver proceeded on. A caring courteous person that was in front of the semi chased him down and ask him if he knew he had hit someone pushing him in the ditch. The semi driver admitted that he knew what he had done. Luckily this concerned citizen called the police and held the driver at bay until the authorities arrived.

I am very much aware accidents occur but feel drivers such as the delivery person should not be on our road ways putting other persons life at stake and not having the compassion to at least stop and see if someone was injured. I thank you for taking the time to read this complaint. I feel a company such as Pepsi should know the conduct of some of their employees. Concerned Parent. I can be reached for comment!!!

NEW YORK, NEW YORK -- I was in NYC and got a 2 liter bottle of Diet Mountain Dew and it tasted kind of different, somewhat flat. From the first taste, I thought that there was something weird but figured it was just me. After about half a glass I started to get sick to my stomach. I looked at the bottle and there was dirt floating around in it. I went back to the store and bought another bottle and it had the same stuff floating around. It is still sealed. It looks like lint or something floating around, it eventually settles. Anyone else have these problems?

BURLINGTON, MASSACHUSETTS -- Mountain Dew has tasted bad since December 2004 or January 2005. I thought it was being frozen during shipment. But it has been like this for at least 3 months now, so I think that might not be a possibility. Also it only tastes bad at some places wherever I buy it. The batch codes on the bottom of the cans that taste bad don't match each other so I cannot discriminate it using the batch number when buying some.

Both good and bad cans are firm at room temperature, but at refrigerator temperature the bad cans are a little squishy and the good cans remain their firmness. I have checked the FDA food recalls and there hasn't been any recalls. I have noticed other posts on this site that Pepsi brand is also affected. Maybe it's a cleaning chemical that does not get washed out between batches.

TEXAS -- Pepsi Si = Sucks nasty tasting and flat soda. Pepsi says it's the same as Pepsi. I don't think so. Maybe it's the water they are using? Anyone else hate it? A lot of places don't have Mountain Dew – so my second choice is Pepsi or brewed Ice Tea. But when you are out of town – you don't know the places water quality and taste and if they have filters for their water, so I go for can or bottled drinks. And I hate when most eateries don't have Evian bottled water and just have off brand bottled water, then they get insulted if you bring Evian into their restaurant to drink. It's all about taste and quality.

Pepsi appears to have changed its processing of diet Pepsi decaf. I've recently bought 2 36-12 0z. can cartons from Costco. The taste is different. I thought that maybe it was a one time problem but I bought 4 twelve pack cans from ShopRite and again there is a different taste. What's wrong with their process? I am a long time Pepsi drinker who doesn't like the recent change.
