Pesticide cocktail in the streets of India?
I thought Coca Cola and Pepsi Co. were respectable corporate entities. Mistakes happen once in a while, but can both the cola giants have pesticides in their cola drinks in the United States? The answer is a BIG 'NO'. They'll get screwed by the FDA, other government agencies and the general public through suits and other court cases, which will make them cry their cola dollars out.
In our country it seems the nexus is just too thick to prosecute these rhino skinned corporate entities. Majority of the people in towns and cities like both the brands, and i assume both the brands know it. This should not give them the freedom to induce cancer to their own customers.
At most few narrow minded groups will take on some Pepsi or Coke bottler factory and destroy some property, or some advertising billboard will be vandalized, but nothing ever happens to Coca Cola and PepsiCo through the legal system in India.
What a coincidence, I was watching the movie, 'Corporate' few days back.
When both the companies and reaping so much profits, is it that difficult to put a process in place that will eliminate pesticides content in cola drinks? At least I do not see any thought in that road, after two years when the Cola giants were alleged to have pesticides in their products.
