Irony.....


That's right, the Pepsi Cola Corporation and KFC are out to help all of the diabetics out there!

As if those people don't have enough problems, KFC, which is owned by Yum! Brands, Inc. which has a lifetime franchise contract with PepsiCo, by the way, will donate $1.00 to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation with the purchase of their MegaJug® soft drink.

The MegaJug® is a full Half-Gallon, that's just under two (2) litres, of high fructose corn syrupy sugary goodness for all of the potential diabetics and those already blessed with type 1 or type 2 to consume; all of this in the name of charity. 

So, get out there and get yourself one and fund some research while you test your own blood sugar. After all, diabetics are consumers too.


And, when you're done, you can use the convenient handle as a beach pail.



This is almost as bad as the tobacco companies funding cancer research, see ABC News if you don't believe me.
