The formations of both this company are quite interesting.

On May 8, 1886, in Atlanta City, John Stith Pemberton a pharmacist accidentally gave the cola syrup which he created to a nearby soda seller, that seller mixed that syrup in his soda and started selling to the people for 5 cents. Slowly all people started liking the taste and become addict to it.

John Stith Pemberton promoted his product as a medicine for headache and tiredness ,within a month sales of coco-cola increased drastically even from other states people came to Atlanta to drink coco-cola.

Within a year Coca-Cola has become popular in America. Today worldwide Coco-Colo is producing 200 crores of bottles per day. Though they have a lot of production houses throughout the world the formula for producing the syrup is maintained highly secret by the company to maintain their image in the market.

After Coco-Cola, Pepsi was introduced 7years later by Caleb Bradham in New Bern a city in west Carolina.

Caleb Bradham promoted Pepsi as a medicine for stomach pain initially the sale of Pepsi was too much dull so they changed its product name to Pepsi-Cola in 1898. The name Pepsi is derived from the word Pepsin.

Pepsine is a type of enzyme found in our intestine to digest food, As they promoted Pepsi as a medicine for stomach pain they used Pepsine name for their product. Pepsi couldn't reach the market like Coco-Cola, so they decided to sell 12 ounces of Pepsi for 5 cents, while Coco-Cola was giving 6 ounces for the same price. Coco cola couldn't increase their bottle size at that time due to this there was some increase for Pepsi in the market.

During this tight competition world war 2 was happened which forced Pepsi to increase its price. From the year 1863 to 1962 Coca-Cola was dominating in the American markets and then Pepsi grew up with Coco-Cola. After the dominance of Pepsi and coco-cola, Americans had forgotten about drinking water. That is why there was an increase in the child obesity ratio in America at that time.

Today both these companies have grown gigantic all over the world. They are getting billions of dollars per day ,sponsoring lots of gaming events.

That is why Ronaldo reminded everyone to drink more water than beverages.
