“Well, we have a message for PepsiCo,” the pro-life advocate continued. “We who are pro-life have a “gold standard” too. And that means we defend the sanctity of all human life including the remains of innocent aborted babies that PepsiCo is exploiting for profit.”

Exactly.

That’s it for them ... not that I was a PepsiCo fan to begin with.

[EverOnward]

Not another Pepsi, never.

[Gator113]

I will NEVER drink another Pepsi and I will NEVER buy another Pepsi for anyone else.

“With respect to the flavor discovery research with Senomyx, we utilize techniques that have been the gold standard for several decades by top universities, hospitals,..."

Pepsi: Others companies use aborted fetal cells; so it is not just ethical, it is the gold standard.

PepsiCo is ignoring criticism from pro-life advocates upset that the company contracts with a research firm that uses fetal cells from babies victimized by abortions to test and produce artificial flavor enhancers.

Although Pepsi is already on my listing of junk foods to avoid, I do not like the idea of drinking anything that has dead baby parts as an ingredient.

What is wrong with them? Do they not see that is a bad idea?

Brookstone had a soda maker in its catalog, I have never
used one. Besides, soda used to be treat, people went to
... soda fountains. I’m trying hard to not ever buy any
major soda brands, any of them. It’s a minor loss, but it
is a loss. I remember hearing about the marvel another
major brand (not Pepsi) was for travelers back in the day
in the South.

If pro-lifers use their email lists, and call talk shows, to get more people to boycott, they cannot ignore us forever.

Seen here at 24 weeks - six months from conception, the unborn child is covered with a fine, downy hair called lanugo. His tender skin is protected by a waxy substance called vernix. Some of this substance may still be on the child's skin at birth at which time it will be quickly absorbed. The child practices breathing by inhaling amniotic fluid into developing lungs.

What does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul? Pepsi has lost it's soul. Eternity is a long, long time on into infinity to spend in the lake of fire just to “enhance” flavor. There will be no flavor other than the stench of brimstone forever for them unless they repent.

No more Pepsi products for me nor my friends. Spread the word!

Let it be known that we boycott because we are standing up for the precious lives of innocent babies. When they boycott it is only because they think that their own often evil inspired rights have been stepped upon. Our boycotts are moral necessities while theirs are selfish mean spirited demands. Spread the word!

[Salvation]

Will you please pray to end abortion

so that babies like me might live?

Letter of complaint and notice of boycott of Pepsi drink products sent.

Thank you for contacting Pepsi. Your email has been delivered.

Today being the first day in years a Pepsi fountain drink wasn't part of my lunch-time routine; because of a moral gold standard: defending the sanctity of life.

And we'll avoid the entire PepsiCo line of consumer products until all ties with Senomyx are severed.
