Thanks furbar,
Guess maybe I misunderstood the what KOP was saying. Sorry KOP, and I have to agree with you. I think the soda jerks are trying (too hard) to be "politically correct" and failed in their attempt.
I happen to like Dr. Pepper. The cans will be gone after Christmas and the whole thing will be forgotten.

This is America and KoP is welcome to boycott whomever or whatever he wishes.
None the less, I agree with BobG and Fu.
I like Dr Pepper,7 UP, A&W, Canada Dry, Schweppes, Sunkist, Welch's, Hires, Crush, Squirt, Vernors, Sundrop, Hawaiian Punch, Country Time and the RC Cola and Slush Puppie Brands.
That is my opinion and KoP is welcome to voice his too.

No doubt... KoP is free to boycott anybody he likes for any reason, real or imagined.

Kop,
I completely agree with you on at least one point. Companies that use events like this to push product are just pathetic.
However, I'm not about to let some marketing weenie dictate what I will or will not consume. In other words, even if I considered that can to be incredibly offensive (it's somewhat offensive, IMHO), I not going to let it affect my decision to buy or not buy anything. In fact, I hate Pepsi and most Pepsi products (too sweet for my tastes) so I won't be buying anyway.
I do respect *your* opinion, but I was questioning whether an organized boycott was in order. Boycott away.

All I can say is there is no Neman's Own pasta sauce or Budweiser products in my house.
