Our Regal just switched today to Coke Products. we also sell frutopia and minue maid juice in our cafe. although you have to admit, cherry pepsi is better than cherry coke. and as far as the trailers, they look the same but with coke cups in space, i think its funny. other regal people: are you guys honoring the regalator refills for a year as well?

Ken Lackner and others were right about Regal -- locally they changed from Pepsi to Coke this past week. They have new tickets (with no "sponsor" logo at all), new graphics at the concession stand, new soft drink cups, and a new version of the roller-coaster policy trailer in front of the feature. Also a new Coke-sponsored slide show.

Kristin, latest word is Regal is honoring the Regalator refill indefinitely.

Evans, comapny policy states that the policy trailer is the last trailer before the feature. Yes, we are allowed to move attatched trailers to the other side of the policy. Someone is not doing thier job, and the customers suffer. What theater does this happen at?

I went to pick up a print this summer outside of Kalamazoo michigan, and it was one of Carol Moore's theatres, And she sells both Coke and Pepsi, and it's all self serve. I thought it was a great idea.

Regal Signs Seven-Year Pact With Coca-Cola
4/10/2002 BoxOffice.Com

The Coca-Cola Company has entered into a new seven-year strategic beverage supply and marketing partnership with Regal Cinemas, Inc., the nation's largest film exhibitor. Under the terms of the multiyear beverage agreement, Coca-Cola will be the exclusive soft drink beverage supplier for Regal's more than 300 locations.

"The agreement with Regal Cinemas represents our commitment to developing relationships built on mutual success, not only from our brands, but also from our services," said Jeff Dunn, president and chief operating officer, Coca-Cola Americas. "As the exclusive supplier of soft drink and water beverages to Regal Cinemas, coupled with our existing partnerships with United Artists and Edwards Theatres, we can ensure a quality beverage program that delivers value to our movie-going customers and consumers nationwide."

The partnership with Regal also represents a unique marketing opportunity for Coca-Cola, including concession marketing and promotion opportunities as well as the showcasing of Coca-Cola Screen Play slides and the rolling stock footage that runs prior to the feature film.

"Our marketing partnership with Regal allows us to refresh and entertain millions of moviegoers each year as they are out enjoying themselves with family and friends," added Dunn.

About to extend my contract with Coke for another 3 years.
We have almost tripled their nexpectations and they are providing $16000.00 of new equipment.

In New Zealand, Pepsi is very much the new kid on the block.

McDonalds & Burger King stock Coke
KFC stock Pepsi

Blasphemy!

I love Coca Cola.

I haven’t drunk a Coca Cola since February 2001. I gave it up in the misguided attempt to lose some poundage.

My first drink of choice was soda water with lime squeezed in it.

I discovered that Diet Canada Dry Ginger Ale doesn’t taste like diet soda. I have also discovered that Diet 7-Up doesn't taste like diet soda either.

While in England my girlfriend got me hooked on Diet Coke which I still think tastes foul.

Then when I was at the local competition I ordered a Diet Pepsi and I like it.

Sorry Coke. I still love you, but you don't love me.

>>KFC stocks Pepsi, b/c I believe that Pepsi owns KFC and Taco Bell<<

PepsiCo spun off its restaurant operations (KFC/Taco Bell/Pizza Hut) in 1994. The new parent company is called Tricon Global Restaurants: http://www.triconglobal.com

Pizza Huts around these parts serve Coke products.

Ian sed: "While in England my girlfriend got me hooked on Diet Coke which I still think tastes foul. Then when I was at the local competition I ordered a diet Pepsi and I like it."

I agree completely! Diet Coke from cans is undrinkable. I can tolerate it out of a fountain though, tastes different/better for some reason. But Diet Pepsi is much better. My former employer supplied free soft drinks to the employees. We had a vending machine (cans) on each floor of the building set for "Free". The vending machine guy told me he had to restock the Diet Pepsi far more often than Diet Coke. But on the regular non-diet stuff, it was the opposite. Coke was preferred over Pepsi by mose people. Maybe me too.

Does the diet-type syrup used in fountain dispensers use a different sweetener than the canned version of the same beverage? I seem to recall that fountain drinks use sacharine, while cans use Nutra-Sweet. Maybe that's why the Diet Coke tastes different to me depending on where it's sourced.

I prefer bottled/canned Pepsi, but fountain Coke.
