Hi all, I heard long ago that Coca Cola had bought out PepsiCo. or something to that effect.

I haven’t been able to find much on this subject, and would like to know if it was just another rumour. I found this interesting link on the subject, but that’s all.

Any information would be much appreciated.

Thanks again,
