Burger King & Pepsi (1980)

I could never imagine having a Pepsi with a Whopper.

"That girl" is academy award nominee Elizabeth Shue". I believe the guy is Andrew McCarthy (from St. Elmos' Fire and Mannequin).

Some people do actually care what kind of drinks they sell. 90% of the time, if someplace sells Pepsi products (KFC, Taco Bell, etc), I just won't get anything to drink.

Not to mention this was during the time that the Pepsi/Coke wars were really heavy.

Pepsi is WAY sweeter than Coke. I hate when people say that Coke is too sweet but they like Pepsi. Pepsi has more sugar, you can check the nutrition facts if you like.

sodas = kidney stones!!

If I remember correctly... they only had pepsi for a couple years before they switched back to coke. Pepsi is cheeper than coke for vendors but Coke products sell better. This was the case for Burger King, their beverage sales decreased dramatically.

that girl played in that one move adventers of baby-siting. also they have coke not pepsi msta changed again lol

A-hem! People need to STAND UP and CAMPAIGN for their favorite sodas! If I go somewhere with Coca-Cola, I just get something like Hi-C or Sprite (I don't like Coke, it's too sweet).

I work at Burger King now. It's funny how every single one I've been to has Coke. I know this is 20 years old, but my boss, who's like a burger king guru, said burger king never had pepsi. O.o

Not to mention that Subway had also made the ludicrous decision to switch from Pepsi to Coca-Cola just very recently. I mean, COME ON! No one cares about a resturant's sodas, they only care about the food.

I said that because it should'nt matter about what soda a resturant might have. This ad itself was a waste on the economy.

Technically, you should just drink whatever soda you could find without question.

I agree KRW, this ad is pointless except since its not like most people really cared what type of soda they were serving. They care much more about the food. BK was just wasting their money on this ad.

They just switched thier contract with the Coca-Cola company to a contract with Pepsi in 1984. However, by 1987 burger king had reverted to Coca-Cola afterwards.

Andrew Mc Carthy and Elizibeth Shue...lol.

What's so special about pepsi being sold at burger king? the mcdonald's in mall of america serves pepsi yet they dont advertise it like something really special happened. avoid blatant advertisements please
