When Soda Goes Hillbilly

Is it just me or has soda gone hillbilly? C’mon, even if you don’t drink soda it’s hard not to notice how they’ve returned to their roots. Cane sugar. Hatfield and McCoy logos. Really? Is an old look on a new product going to make it sell? Well, Denny’s tried it and more white poeple than ever showed up for a sock hop.

All this over a rotten Grand Slam and Little Cow Polk.

When everyone gave up on Denny’s, they stormed off to the gas station to boycott Coke and Pepsi’s return to logos that make their drinks look they cost 25 cents.

Like Coors, this shit trickles down from the mountains, too.

They’ve even gone so far as to change the look of their vending machines!

This one was recently converted from an outhouse. 25 cents will get you a Coke. 50 cents will get you a pack of Camels.

It’s hard not to buy into the soda makers mad marketing schemes. After all, remember when Coke was all about cocaine and Pepsi was all about alcohol?

The Perfect Mixer….with Captain and Coke!

So now I wonder what product will go back to its roots next. Will Maxi-Pads revert to Mini-Pads? Will Jolt Cola make a comeback? Will Budweiser…oh yeah, never mind.

Man's thoughts: "I'll get her drunk, then rape her in the woods." Woman's thoughts: "Budweiser? How ghetto. Just like this branch for a fishing pole."
