Coke vs. Pepsi: the New Class War

“Summertime is arriving — the high season for leisurely picnic lunches and casual meals, meaning it’s the absolute zenith for Coke and its dominance within the upper class. A staple in every butler’s pantry, the bright-red cans (or hourglass-shaped bottles) accompany all the traditional fare wealthy families enjoy consuming in the open air. Country-club snack bars burst with Coke, boat captains appease their passengers with it on cruises, and rum pairs ably with it to create a classic, thirst-quenching kick at the cocktail hour. In all of these festive contexts, as well as countless others, it’s always Coke — never Pepsi.”
