PepsiCo issued a statement regarding the closure of the PopCorners plant and layoffs for the nearly 300 employees: “This plant has played a vital role in producing our beloved PopCorners brand, but the pace of growth for this product line paired with broader industry pace of growth has made it difficult to sustain the site’s long-term viability.”

Never heard tell of it, must have been a Yankee thing.

Lay It on the Low

Even starving Third-Worlders would refuse to eat that crap. So an idiot in upper management who came up with the idea, and the CEO Bozo who approved it, get away with their privileged incompetence.

I blame Mt. Dew.

Every fat body you see schlepping around has a Mt. Dew in their hand.
