I am relieved to read these complaints by people all over the country. My gripe is just like theirs. It's not restricted to north Texas so the issue is traced back to Pepsi Corporation...bottom line is (of course) money related. The vending machine Pepsis are higher profit margins than the bulk packaged Pepsis you get at Sams or Costco. Pepsi, SHAME on YOU!

I have been a pepsi addict for 40 years. The last 3 years or so they have declined terribly. I buy 7 cartons a week and 80% of the time they taste completely flat. I can pour a whole can out in the sink and it doesn't even bubble up. Doesn't seem to matter what store I buy from. It is disgusting to be stuck with trying to drink them. I have always been a Pepsi fanatic but I am ready to give it up. Too expensive to maintain for something that's barely tolerable 80% of purchases. What happened to Pepsico.?

I'm in Canada and for the last few weeks every container of Pepsi I've bought is pretty much flat. It started with some 2l bottles from gas stations. I'd thought they froze or something.

Then I got two 24 packs of cans from the grocery store. Well I'm taking them back and switching to Coke. I've been a Pepsi fan for over two decades. I don't know what the issue is, but I'm done.

Same here -flat Pepsi! It’s disgusting. Nothing but Pepsi in my house for ages. But unless it’s changed soon I’m going to something different. So tired of pouring Pepsi down the sink!

This has happened a few times before with canned Pepsi, but the last 3 12 packs I have bought all have gone flat within a half hour. I can't even finish one before it's flat. I can tell from the first sip I can tell it's a dud case, it just doesn't taste right. I never do this but I seriously want to contact Pepsi and try to get this addressed.

I keep buying 20 ounce bottles of Pepsi products and they are almost every time flat. I’m think the store might be getting old product and I am not going to switch to coke but I am getting pretty sick of this garbage. Please get me some quality cherry Pepsi!

All summer from a list of stores and a list of friends... Why are all the pepsi cans flat. Unlike the other people the cans I can guarantee that are flat are the blue cans. Including the new NFL cans. The only Pepsi cans that aren't flat are the retro design . So when I go to the store I either look like a crazy person digging for retro cans or having to pick...COKE...I HATE COKE! Please for the love of it all fix this issue so I can live my life happily with my ever loving pepsi. Please don't force me to drink COKE! I've had over 15 cases of flat Pepsi cans ...from 12 packs - 30 packs.
Been drinking Pepsi for over 20 years

When I was young I could open a pepsi on a hot day and savor it for hours. Even after it was warm for a while it was still not flat. I quit drinking it for years after moving out. Eventually I get a room mate and after many years I remember it taste exactly like it used to but these days they go flat if you do not drink them in must minutes! It is a huge scam! Their goal is to manipulate so it is great when you open it but the carbon monoxide is mixed with chemicals (undetectable gasses) that break the fizz down faster, . This is why there are so many cans laying around half full. They go flat. This scam is not perfected yet, sometimes they over do it causing it to go flat while in the can. Sounds like I am crazy but just ask anyone with a good memory in their late 40's if they can remember the old days when drinking hot pepsi that sill had fizz happened, impossible with the way they make it today. Its kind of like my friend that patterned a tobacco scoop per that only averaged a 2% loss vs the 11% loss from loading a pipe via dipping in the pouch without the scooper.. The tobacco co bought his patent for 36K so they could avoid it being sold. They would loose 36K of sales every few hours if everyone who smoked a pipe got one of those things. Same reason a bic lighter has a much higher flame then back in the day when they used to last so much longer.

Bought 3 12 pack cases of Pepsi -- so far out of two cases that were opened, had at least 3 cans in each case that were flat. These cases were not even close to the expiration date. What's up with this Pepsi. It's not bad enough that soda prices have escalated, now your selling flat soda to the public so we have to go out and buy more soda quicker. What a scam! I would like to be credited for my cases of soda.
