“Pepsi Gaza introduces new designs to its products, showcasing Palestinian culture and heritage,” it captioned the post.
After that, there were speculations on the internet if Pepsi was really an Israeli product or not. Well, neither Pepsi is an Israeli company nor did they change design to support Palestine.
The image released on the internet is not new, and the Facebook page Dragon Studios shared the design of the product as part of a campaign called “Pepsi Taste Challenge” on August 16, 2023. However, PepsiCo is also an American company and not an Israeli company as claimed.
