RE: PepsiCo Says Consumers Are Keeping Them From Offering More Healthy Products
I would like to believe Indra Nooyi, but I tend to watch what a company does, and not so much what the pres says. Pepsi has had several chances to break into the better for you market, and all I have seen are "set up to fail" jobs.
Also, people who have gone to a healthier bent are the ones who have labelled coke/pepsi/HFC/Monsanto as evil and to be avoided at all cost. So, Pepsi would have to break across this gulf, even if they produced a wonderful healthy product.
And furthermore, Obama hates me. And Pepsi obeyed, and now I cannot even eat anything made by Pepsi. (food allergies)
that is why i mentioned their hundreds of millions of dollars in investments toward healthier companies/products, which is pretty evident that they are trying to branch into that market. They have a very wide portfolio!
I guess Snapple is the best example. They were a great company with a very nice line of products, got bought out by the big boys, and then the "Snapple" line went to shit. They made it worse, and worse for you. They probably thought that a slow decline in quality wouldn't be noticed, but it was, and sales plummeted. Then the Snapple people bought it back... but its still not what it was.
