#5 Pepsi Cola  ...

Brings back a jingle we sang in grammar school when Pepsi was new (to us).

Pepsi cola is a rotten drink
Throw it down your kitchen sink
It tastes like water and it looks like ink
P-e-p-p-s-i colaisarotten drink!

We weren't allowed to buy it, or Coke, for that matter (even though we seldom had money to waste on soft drinks) . Soda was not good for our teeth!!!
