What started as a mischievous photo of someone serving themselves Coca-Cola and Pepsi at the same time has turned into a full-fledged trending meme. The origin photo went viral on Reddit in early December or 2018, and it wasn't until early January that it really popped off. The meme is generally used to represent our most contradictory behaviors and emotions, but some people have used it to make references to viral videos or cult songs. Here are some of the better examples of this fun meme.

Pepsi is a caffeinated beverage, and it is always in competition and compared to Coca-Cola. It was originally created and developed in 1893 by Caleb Bradham.

It's been quite the week for PR disasters. First there was the absurd Pepsi ad starring Kendall Jenner. Then, the brutal United Airlines re-accommodation of the doctor from Kentucky. Finally, we were forced to marvel at - and cope with - Sean Spicer's Hitler gaffe. Here's what happens when the PR Axis of Evil works together to create some seriously meta memes.
By now you've probably heard about the horror show that was Kendall Jenner's "woke" Pepsi ad. In the 2 minute and forty second clip, the young, white and attractive model is seen joining a very diverse and "artsy" protest in the streets of...Bangkok. The leggy star walks with the crowd until they encounter a wall of cops blocking their way. Kendall proceeds to gift a stern police officer a can of Pepsi. As he cracks it (and a smile) the crowd erupts in cheers.
Right.
The advertisement, which was released on April 4th, 2017, has since been pulled after criticism was unleashed on PepsiCo and its hired talent. Does the company really want to send the message that conflicts such as Black Lives Matter can be solved if privileged white women offer cops soda? It all feels very trivializing. The internet agreed - here is what netizens had to say on the matter.
