As the global reputation of US brands slips, some US firms are turning to unusual marketing strategies. Coca-Cola, for instance, is now promoting itself as a “German product.”

    I haven’t touched any American soda since 51st state threats, honestly really disappointed all our restaurants still serve Pepsi or Coke products.

    Not sure if Canadians are hurting their sales enough to try that here yet.

        Yeah that one is out of Texas I see.

        Alts with zero USA involvement from what I can tell, correct me if I’m wrong:

        Canada: Big 8, Like Cola, Bubble Up, Red Racer, Philips Soda, Jones Soda.

        Out of those I’m only aware of Jones and Philips personally. I’ll need to look for the others.

        Europeans (probably not every country I imagine):

        Irn-Bru, Vinto, Fritz-Cola, Almdudler, Rivella, Sinalco, Ubuntu Cola, Mecca Cola, Barr’s Flavours, San Pellegrino, Orangina.

        Some of these are in Canada too, dunno about the reverse! I buy San Pellegrino pretty frequently and know of Rivella.
