Pepsi Thinks Soda Coursing Through Your Veins is A Good Thing

It’s really quite sad when soda brands even remotely imply their products approach something any sane person would consider healthy. Oh sure, we all want to consume a soda from time to time but to imply the crap carries any health benefits is ludicrous.

But that does not appear to have concerned BBDO Dusseldorf when they created this poster campaign for Pepsi which is said to deliver “refreshment and energy to all parts of the body.” The image appears to be a body’s veins and capillaries which are colored so as to mimic the brand’s color scheme.

It doesn’t take much more than a cursory Google search to determine study after study have determined soda is simply not healthy. Yes, it won’t kill you if you consume it in moderation but for those who drink it like coffee on a daily basis, it would appear the prognosis is not good. Via.
