Alright, let me tell ya ’bout this Pepsi barcode thingy. You know, those little lines on the bottles and cans? Yeah, those. They ain’t just for show, they got a purpose.
So, you see, every Pepsi thing, whether it’s a can or a bottle, it’s got this barcode. It’s like a secret code, tells the store what it is and how much it costs. They scan it, and bing, it pops up on the screen. Magic, ain’t it?
- You got the regular Pepsi, the one we all know.
- Then there’s that diet one, for folks watchin’ their weight.
- And all them fancy flavors too, cherry, vanilla, whatever.
They all got their own special code, see? So, if you wanna know what kinda Pepsi you got, just look at that barcode. Or, you know, read the label. That works too.
Now, these barcodes ain’t just for the store. Pepsi uses them too. They keep track of how many they sell, where they sell ’em, all that business stuff. That way, they know what folks like and what they don’t. Smart, huh?
And get this, they even put those fancy QR codes on some cans. You know, those square ones? You scan ’em with your phone, and it shows you stuff. Videos, pictures, all sorts of things. My grandkids, they love that stuff. Me? I don’t get it, but hey, if it makes ’em happy.
I heard tell that this fella named Caleb made the first Pepsi a long, long time ago. Down in some place called North Carolina. Wanted to make somethin’ like that Coca-Cola drink. And he did good, I reckon. Pepsi’s darn tasty.
So, next time you got a Pepsi, take a look at that barcode. Them little lines tell a big story. About where it came from, where it’s goin’, and all the folks who had a hand in gettin’ it to you.
And if you see one of them QR codes, scan it. Who knows what you might find? Maybe a funny video, maybe a freebie, maybe just some fancy ad. Either way, it’s somethin’ to do.
Pepsi’s been around a long time, and I reckon it’ll be around a long time more. As long as folks like sweet drinks and those little barcodes, Pepsi ain’t goin’ nowhere.
Now, I gotta go. Got chores to do. But you remember what I told ya ’bout them barcodes. They ain’t just lines, they’re stories.
