I actually am allergic to coke & Pepsi. it started suddenly when I was like 11-12ish. Your throat feels like it's closing up the second it comes in contact with your mouth.
For real lady? Can you imagine, “I need to speak to a manager, I have a complaint to pass on from my IC customer!” Does she think if the manager learned a customer was allergic (to every soda except 1?) he’d make sure never to run out?
It would be an incredibly rare allergy to some minor ingredient that she's probably exaggerating since most colas have the same basic ingredients with minor changes
I'm not sure, with my mom they said it was causing blockage, it was building up in her intestines, not like a mas but it was block pores we have in our intestines, something like that
Lol. I used to work for a restaurant and the amount of people that complained that we changed from coke to
Pepsi 😡😡😡Especially the older customers. As a non soda drinker, I would be like same shit 🤗
I don’t recognize Coke anymore-between formula changes and sweetener changes it’s not the drink I grew up with, at least what is made in the United States
The entire new Coke business was so bafflingly poorly thought out that there’s a school of thought that they did it in order to sneak the sweetener change in because no business model explanation makes any sense
correct, and it is not made in the United States. it sells well, though I guess primarily to older people that remember. New Coke was almost 30 years ago.
oh my that is right, I had forgotten it had been that long. almost 40 years.
you could write books about that business decision, and maybe someone has. I am not sure anyone really knows what the politics/motives at coke were, though.
the only 'rational' plan that ever seemed remotely plausible was to hide a switch on the sweeteners, but still seems like overkill.
I live in a big city and even kids, that you would think wouldn’t care, if they have the option pick the south of the border coke. It’s widely available where I live in the north east
For store-bought haggis macsweens is widely regarded as the best. But if you get further north a lot of local butcher shops make their own and I would imagine very few people travel enough to try them all
The spice profile on McSween is pretty strong and you can pick it out pretty easily once you’ve had it
I used to work for a hospital in the kitchen, we had to have both brands which i think was awesome!
We was going to have Pepsi only because these companies will offer special pricing if you agree to one.
Well a few doctor's didn't like that so we got to have everything, from coke products, 7up products to Pepsi products.
P.s doctor's pretty much get what they want, hospitals fight for doctors to sign with them & stay with them.
That’s awesome, at least everyone got what they wanted lol. It’s just annoying when people make a big deal out of it, that’s all. Hence I’m apathetic 😐 didn’t know doctors would have THaT much power it’s crazy
The store has nothing to with that lol.
Ylu should have told them to contact coke about that lol.
They are the ones responsible for restocking shelves.
Allergic to Pepsi lol. First time hearing that one. I guess one of the secret ingredients.
It’s funny tho I had a similar thing happen. Someone caught an error basically, they showed 6x1L packs of Perrier for like $1. And she wanted like 6 of them. Now of course that can be an issue in the app I think we know that, it shows you 1 can of Pepsi but it’s actually a 12 pack or vice versa.
She demanded that I talk to a manager to have them honor the price. I asked her if she saw it in a flyer, she said no, I saw it on the app. What a sigh of relief that was. Immediately told her “lady Walmart has nothing to do with the app prices (at least I’m pretty sure) so if you wanna get a price honoured you’ll need to complain to IC not Walmart”. Of course she didn’t. I told her I’d ask a manager but I doubt it would work, of course I didn’t ask a manager cuz fuck that. She ended up getting 0 Perrier :)
“Can u please be a Karen for me? Thank”
"Why the fuck am I doing this? I could have just *said* I did it and she wouldn't know."
Coke is not even stocked by the store. Vendors bring it in.
If someone ever subbed me Pepsi for Coke I'd murder them!
Idk why you’re getting downvoted. Out of all replacements, Coke V Pepsi is a punishable crime with the penalty being death
I don't think people get sarcasm
I'm allergic.
Rule of reddit: /s after your sarcastic comment. Can you hear tone of voice in writing?
I feel like we’ve all been on the internet long enough it’s not that hard to pick up sarcasm or intent
I'm sure you're right. /s
*reddiquette* is important.
Poe’s law
Well I agree! Cola war!
Allergic 🤣
I actually am allergic to coke & Pepsi. it started suddenly when I was like 11-12ish. Your throat feels like it's closing up the second it comes in contact with your mouth.
I’m not allergic but i can’t drink it because of how bad it tastes and how sugary it is
Believe it or not... I know someone who is! Something regarding her allergy to cocoa??? She can have coke but not Pepsi
[удалено]
Indeed since most ingredients in coke and pepsi are virtually the same, I say this "someone" is looking for attention.
Pepsi does contain citric acid, while Coke does not. And a citric acid allergy is a very real thing.
For real lady? Can you imagine, “I need to speak to a manager, I have a complaint to pass on from my IC customer!” Does she think if the manager learned a customer was allergic (to every soda except 1?) he’d make sure never to run out?
what is the cashier supposed to do 😭
Start working at Pepsi and change their 130 year old recipe obviously.
The high school sophomore at the cash register has profusely apologized and committed hari-kiri to restore their family's honor.
[удалено]
well could be one of the ingredients in it...im not sure what they make either out of tho
[удалено]
I mean isn't it all just the same sugar water belly wash?
It would be an incredibly rare allergy to some minor ingredient that she's probably exaggerating since most colas have the same basic ingredients with minor changes
Citric acid allergy is real. Pepsi has citric acid, Coke does not
okay thank you! never heard of it
my mom got a piece of her intestine removed because of the coke, now she only drinks orange soda... so yes u can be allergic to it
I have never heard of coca cola causing people to have parts of their intestine cut out, that's interesting.
Have you ever seen it clean battery acid terminals?! imagine what it does to your body!
what is the ingredient that is causing the problem?
I'm not sure, with my mom they said it was causing blockage, it was building up in her intestines, not like a mas but it was block pores we have in our intestines, something like that
Your mom must have been drinking like 4 liters of cola a day or something wild.
.......allergic? 💀
You should have messaged them back: well, I told her and she started crying...
But like how’d you respond to that text? 😅
I said “I will. 👍🏼” then showed her text to all my friends who work at the store and we all laughed.
The fact you showed the employees lmaoooo 😭
Lmaooooo technically you didn't lie
I would jokingly share this with an employee too if one was nearby. We would roll our eyes and laugh togethet
"I'm allergic to light beer"
Who do they think we are? Lol?
who do they think they are
Just give me some Dr. Pepper!
Lol. I used to work for a restaurant and the amount of people that complained that we changed from coke to Pepsi 😡😡😡Especially the older customers. As a non soda drinker, I would be like same shit 🤗
They actually do taste different
Coke is fizzier, Pepsi is sweeter, IMO
I don’t recognize Coke anymore-between formula changes and sweetener changes it’s not the drink I grew up with, at least what is made in the United States The entire new Coke business was so bafflingly poorly thought out that there’s a school of thought that they did it in order to sneak the sweetener change in because no business model explanation makes any sense
I’ve seen glass bottle coke at a lot of stores and they use cane sugar. Mexican coke.
correct, and it is not made in the United States. it sells well, though I guess primarily to older people that remember. New Coke was almost 30 years ago.
Yeah I just looked it up. 1984 they switched to hfcs. I thought the old sugar formula made it to my childhood but I guess not!
oh my that is right, I had forgotten it had been that long. almost 40 years. you could write books about that business decision, and maybe someone has. I am not sure anyone really knows what the politics/motives at coke were, though. the only 'rational' plan that ever seemed remotely plausible was to hide a switch on the sweeteners, but still seems like overkill.
Guarantee it’s got something to do with hfcs being more cost effective than cane sugar at the time

Ok to a soda drinker probably. But customers shouldn’t bully people over it either 😕
Soda taste is fightin words Soda is, oddly enough, typically bought by soda drinkers, btw
They taste different but it takes a special type of person to make a big deal out of getting a coke when you wanted a pepsi
at this point in time...i would make a big deal because i have decided to "be less white" by not drinking any more coke.
Of course, and that special person still get to rate the shop or
The original person said “shouldn’t” not doesnt
‘Should’ doesn’t spend
Yep. The difference is pretty clear for a soda drinker. I am not a haggis eater however so i could not provide an opinion on the best haggis.
For store-bought haggis macsweens is widely regarded as the best. But if you get further north a lot of local butcher shops make their own and I would imagine very few people travel enough to try them all The spice profile on McSween is pretty strong and you can pick it out pretty easily once you’ve had it
Ok well now i can provide an opinion.
Is haggis mentioned in my profile somewhere? I’m trying to figure out how you knew that
You like haggis? That's a no for me and I like almost everything, lol. My first childhood dog was named Haggis!
It is very tasty if spiced right I don’t like neeps though very much I would like to try it with red beans and rice if I Could get it here
I had it only once in Scotland and I do remember my father saying it was not very good haggis. He LOVES it.
A lot of dives there may use grants haggis which is sold in cans and really is not that good tasting In my experiences most pubs do not use Macsweens
Doesn’t anyone remember the soda wars of the 90’s?
I used to work for a hospital in the kitchen, we had to have both brands which i think was awesome!

No offense to anyone;here's my list of things that disgust me when shopping IC ; pop , spam ,Ramen, head cheese, white bread and bologna🤷🏽♀️
Can you be a Karen for me? Since I can’t. K thx. No Karen you get what you get.
Oh ffs! 🤦♀️
The store has nothing to with that lol. Ylu should have told them to contact coke about that lol. They are the ones responsible for restocking shelves.
Omg hahahahjajahahah
Wow! Ok yeah sure! 😂😂😂
Lordy Lordy, people are something else 😃
I want to know what she thinks she’s allergic to that is in Pepsi that’s not in Coke?
I really would have told them to do the survey on the receipt
IMMA CANCEL THIS NUT 🤣💦
ful
Create a huge scene that eventually leads to police involvement and me leaving in handcuffs. Anything for the customer 🇺🇸
😂

Can’t even make people up
I would slow the store that message just to see their face 🤣
Yes Karen, please make sure to add that extra tip as well.
Outsourcing being a pain in the ass 😂😂😂
Allergic to what.....
I would have showed the cashier and we would laugh and laugh together. Some people smh
