  • any vids where they get Ana to laugh the whole time

  • "America, I love you; you know how much I love you, America--but you gotta bring it down." TRUTH. I love us, too, but man...sometimes it goes over the top

  • Half a Gallon seriously? Yes its crazy to have a glass that takes that much.

    However I can easily chug that thing down but I never would.

    My record: 16" pizza with 2L coca cola (tiny bit over half a gallon)

    And I was skinny. However today? No thanks I'm exercising and trying to get better health.

    Even if I can I know better than to do stuff like this.

  • The subtitles are wrong...

  • Pepsi killed my gramma. She died of diabetes. This really pisses me the fuck off

  • I could drink a half gallon of mtn dew

  • Jayar is the cutest omg

  • I love how the sign in KFC says "Help us Find a Cure"...The cure is stop drinking so much damn soda!

  • A half gallon is only 1 and a half litters what's wrong with that....?

  • @METALMAN4Wii 1.9 ish but yeah the jist of your message still rings true.

  • @bunkmasterflex Sweet I just guessed lol....! 

  • Everybody needs a little KILLER-FAT COLA? REALLY???

    .

    For Christ sake! KFC has a ultra-fat sandwich called the Double-Down!

    Maybe they shouldn't carelessly lust-to-profit from such wretches!

  • KFC

    RETARDED AMERICAN CUISINE

  • @elenavlada

    CAPSLOCK

  • ok ok you wont get diabetes type 1 or 2 by drinking pepsi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! do some research before launching a story

  • Fill it with Dr. Pepper. I could do it.

  • Half an ounce of pepsi is too much.

  • two of the worst fast foods available.fried chicken is the 2nd most fattening food next to pesi/coke with it's corn syrup.

    folks sugar is cane susgar. corn syrup is corn syrup and it's main purpose is fattening livestock such as hogs, cattle. corn syrup is not sugsar regardless of how many advertisements they make to the contary

  • diet soda is the worst if you have diebeetus

  • the fizz would run out before you could even finished it

  • KFC thinks they're slick, they don't give a fuck about diabetes they know Mrs.Obama is getting on them about...fat kids and they are NOT gonna go skinless or all canola oil on us. They also know people want be so quick to buy that shit,it's their way of saying "Hey we tried!". Just get a donation box.

  • This is like Cigarette companies trying to prevent lung cancer if you buy 10 packs of cigs 1 dollar will go to research LMAO

  • What I bunch of idiots. America this is why you’re stupid, not why you‘re fat. Don’t they have a researcher, juvenile diabetes is another name for type 1 diabetes the autoimmune form of diabetes. Sugar and soda do not cause type 1. The jug is meant to be shared, not consumed by one person. It’s a tiny one of promotion done by someone with a link to type 1 diabetes. That information could have been found with google in a matter of minutes.

  • @2lucmat I HIGHLY suggest you do not do any research as to how much the CDC has already wasted, and continues to waste, in order to study whether or not there is any necessary link between poor diet/lack of exercise and poor health. If these people studied the reality right in front of their noses, they wouldn't have jobs. It's really that simple.

  • @thereinliestherib Are you really implying there is no link between a bad diet and poor physical exercise with bad health?

  • @bunkmasterflex Quite the opposite. I'm pointing out that there are numerous interests in this country that are invested in just that: studying the "possible" links between dumbass health choices and poor health outcomes. All they do is perpetuate the liberal line that health is purely because of environment, not personal choice, etc. It's a joke.

  • Stop making fun of me skinny tards, i can eat my half gallon and bucket of chicken when i feel like it..

  • JDRF supports research for type 1 diabetes, an autoimmune disease . It is a

    misconception that type 1 is caused by obesity or eating

    too much junk food or sweets. This promotion was done by one KFC store whose owner has a child with type 1, it is not put on by the JDRF. As I also pointed out above, the soda is meant to be shared, not consumed by one person.

    It wasn't a JDRF promo. It was 1 store, whose owner's child

    has diabetes, they were just trying to raise funds to assist with a cure .

  • @TheBeen88 I knew this just didnt seem right, checked comments because I knew someone would explain the reasoning. Although I do agree with Cenk on the half gallon of pepsi, that is just a bit much and its unhealthy, but from what you describe, seems like an honest oversight.

  • @MrSmokinbuddah AND KINDA FUNNY THAT MY WIFE FOUND THAT OUT FROM OUR CONTACT AT JDRF IN AUSTRALIA

  • @TheBeen88 That was informative. However, I imagine it's a bad idea if you have Type 1 diabetes to drink a lot of soda. You don't want to spike your blood sugar.

  • @TheBeen88 WRONG!!!!!! Obesity, particularly truncal obesity, is closely correlated to the prevalence of diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Plasma leptin, tumour necrosis factor-α and non-esterified fatty acid levels are all elevated in obesity and play a role in causing insulin resistance. Diabetic glycaemic control and insulin resistance improve with reductions in obesity,

  • Next thing you know the cigarette companies will sell jumbo packs for cancer research

  • Someone should write a giant FAIL on that sign ... I thought it was a joke when I first saw it xD

  • That is HILARIOUS - a half gallon soda for the cause against juvenile diabetes when soda is one of the main causes? xD Like... it boggles my mind how stupid that is.

  • I'd understand half a litre but half a gallon? cmon.. dude

  • Sometimes, capitalism and philanthropy are huge rivals. KFC would rather be a scammer than a helper. Why couldn't they donate a certain percentage of all meal purchase to the diabetes foundation?

  • Notice how it says "Help us find a cure!", they don't give two shits about people getting diabetes. They want that cure so they can start super sizing everything.

  • @4THEGLIFE "start"?

  • fuck pepsi and fuck kfc, pepsi foundation is how they can make money. fuck pepsi and coke

  • This reminds me of Mike's Hard Lemonade teaming up to prevent breast cancer by having the "buy Mike's lemonade and the money goes to cancer research." Pretty much a bad move to promote a product that causes a problem to help prevent the problem.

    I don't even like Pepsi. XDDD

  • I think Cenk's favorite word is "hypocrisy." So ironic that it describes Cenk exactly.

  • it looks like it has a bucket handle

  • Half a gallon?! Fuck the biggest soda bottle in Sweden is 2 liters. A gallon = 4.54 litres. WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @MyTemporaryAccount88 3.79~ but still thats a shitload of pepsi

  • @JamesAnderyourstruly Oh right, not only does the US have the gallon instead of liters, but it's different from the UK gallon. Always get the ounces etc mixed up due to the ambiguity of it all. Liters & meters = simple math.

  • That is so stupid.

  • eat less, enjoy the taste more

    eat more, enjoy your health less

  • wat? lol

  • KFC makes their chicken with an extra dose of growth hormone. Great way to get cancer. Avoid that shit. Last time I had it (years ago as I am vegan now) it gave me debilitating diarrhea. That said, ANYTHING is better than Church's chicken which doses you with a weaks worth of heart stopping transfat oil per meal.

  • 2:28

  • If I drank that half gallon I would be pissing for a month!! better yet I would settle on my intake of pepsi for a year if I drank all that!! I am better off with a 12 FL OZ can of Sierra Mist than a half gallon of pepsi.. I can already feel like I need to piss already just talking about it.

  • Mr Uygur: we need you! So, get a diet that's balanced. Reassure us that you've fixed it. You need energy to work, there is no doubt, but, I hope Chocolate Cream Pie isn't on the menu every day! There are so many ways to get energy from food and many of them are not high-risk strategies. You can gorge on some foods: fish, chicken, pulses, some rice and potato. The side portions can include sweet corn (maize), celery, artichokes, beetroot, cabbage. Add yoghurt / vinigrette? Not really repulsive!

  • mmmm cream pie... :/

  • What's so strange with this, it's America, the Land of Opposites.

    .

    They fight gun crime with more guns.

    They fight rampant abuse of deregulations with more deregulation.

    They fight terror with terror.

    They fight big government with expanding government agencies like the army.

    They fight poverty by robbing the poorest of the poor.

    They fight pedofilia religions with their own pedofilia-plagued religion.

    And they fight obesity with bashing campaigns for healthy food.

  • 2.27 litres of drink with every meal . DAAAAMN

    in this country we get 400mls of watered down ice filled piss

  • Diet pepsi anyone?

  • @rleb09 Diet pepsi has aspartame which is worse than sugar imo

  • @greenchef6 Very true, which is why I rarely drink soda. Do I sound a bit hypocritical? Ha. 

  • Comment removed

  • The excess that exists in the US is absolutely disgusting. 1/2 a GALLON of Pepsi? Not only is that totally ridiculous, even without the diabetes angle, it's disgusting that some people think nothing of it while there are people starving or dying from tainted water sources in many countries. It's fucking insane. These multinational corps have got a shit load to answer for. When I run the world they'll be the first up against the wall.

  • i used to work at KFC.. and the half a gallon..usually people share.. but a lot of them.. buy it for themeslevs.

  • cause you can get a half a gallon of diet soda which equals no sugar (no calories) just because the sign happens to show regular pepsi doesn't mean you have to get the sugar load.....love TYT but sometimes their just digging for stories.....

  • @diabeticphoenix Pepsi, Diet Pepsi...hell go crazy....Water. Who the hell needs to drink a half gallon of ANYTHING?

  • @krebul I body build so I drink over a gallon of water daily :P

  • @Judicial78 Oh ok. I'm sure KFC has you in mind as their target audience for this product.

  • @krebul I doubt it, I don't drink soda or suger water as I call it, and I don't drink aspartame. I drink water and blended fruit juices that's about it.

    I do agree though, NO ONE EVER needs half a gallon of Soda. Period. A can or two of soda after a vicious workout is actually good for you (I prefer dextrose in my protein shake however), but I could not work out hard enough for long enough to warrant drinking 800 calories of sugar.

  • @krebul yeah, i think you're supposed to drink at least that much water a day. i can't keep up with it lol

  • @krebul According to a MuscleTech Water calculator(google it) someone like me, 240lbs that does a low intensity 30ish minutes daily exercise, I should drink roughly 164 oz. of water daily. With 1 Gallon of fluid equaling 128 oz. that means I should be drinking about 2 and a thirds of these bad boys daily.....of water

  • I think instead of the focus being on Pepsi Co., and KFC, it should be on the JDRF.

    Cause KFC isn't an organization set out to combat diabetes but the JDRF is, so why are they allowing this promotion?!? IMO it's much worse that the JDRF would allow this promotion, than that KFC would.

  • damn :S my whole family of 5 people can share something like that

  • just make obesity illegal like in japan lol

  • What!? That's nearly 2 litres!

  • That's about the biggest size of a bottle of soda you can buy in supermarkets in Sweden. The makers of this campaign had to have done it for teh lulz.

  • a fried food company is fighting diabetes..haha

  • the simple answer is, they need people to cure

  • lol america

  • Prii

  • 2:28

    That's just not right...

    

  • half a gallon is just 2 liters iirc.

  • @videogamer002 JUST 2 liters? What the fuck, I believe the biggest cup of soda you can get at fastfood restaurants here in the Netherlands are 0.5 liter. America is ridiculous, NOBODY would get half a gallon of pepsi here in the Netherlands I'm sure.

  • @Gocavs1990 2 liters is a meh amount. I drink that much daily, on average.

  • To be fair. That pepsi was probably made in the US. It doesn't have sugar in it, it has corn syrup.

  • Maybe it's diet pepsi , with aspartame sweetener

  • uhhhh...so to help out others with diabetes i need to drink pepsi which could give me diabetes instead......the need of the many outway the need of the few? idk

  • Did it ever occur to anyone that the half gallon of pepsi is intented for more that one person? OF COURSEEEEEE! That being said its still insanely ironic and stupid to buy Pepsi to fight diabetes.

  • So fucking hilarious I literally couldn't stop laughing!!

  • glad it wasn't churches lol

  • Simple as this... bad foods= cheap good foods = expensive.

    You can buy a meal at a fast food joint for 4 bucks vs buying just a piece of meat for 4 bucks with this economy what ya think people are choosing. And people bitch about weight issues... lame.

  • I think to be fair to KFC this is not intended for personal consummation. this is for if you buy a family meal for like 30 bucks and for 5 people.

  • Yes let's cure diabetes with sugar loaded soda and deep fried chicken.....makes perfect sense to me

  • Yay I quit fast food and lost 90 lbs, suck my dick mcshitholes, kfc, fuck em all to hell

  • sugar doesnt cause juvenile diabetes... its auto immune.

    make it a good day

  • Maybe people could share the drink, get a few straws. Stop being fatties America. I am one of you, we are all fatties. C'mon guys.

  • Why don't they just put Aquafina in the half gallon thing. It would make a lot more sense.

  • At 0:50, I loled when i was living in France and about 10 years old this was already what we were saying about America. Want a burger fatty? You gonna clog your arteries and fucking die young. I am now 25 and the Food and Drug Administration still hasnt moved on the issue. Imagine living in a healthy country, how much cash saved on health and available for, well, real diseases, or even poverty. Education is fine if we take off the middle man. Same thing with everything else max-profit-oriented.

  • Overindulging in mediocre food is more like it.

  • 1/2 with 20pc of chicken feed a family for 25 bucks

  • What were they supposed to sell that people would really want to buy with the meal? O_o

    This isn't great, but it's a start in the right direction at least. I don't have to drink the pepsi to participate.

  • Pepsi is so nauseatingly sweet. I would throw up so fast. Uhg.

  • This is when i walk in downtown NewYorkCity I see every other person fat,

    Poor America, These faggot ass companies shouldnt incourage them to even drink more pepsi more stuff, its just fuckin fat and disgusting.

  • @JunkeeDrugee Have you ever been to New York? New Yorkers aren't fat at all. Look at Mississippi or any Southern state to see true obesity.

  • @01101111omg Yes i have been there many times, most of the people are overweight, but i am from canada, i dont even drink pop may be once in a bluemoon but this is insanity.

  • @JunkeeDrugee To even say MOST of the people proves you have never been here...

    The obesity rate in New York State is 10%. But I suppose your right corporations only care about profit.

  • First the double down now this...Why do u want to kill us all KFC?

  • Thats like McDonalds fighting against obesity by selling bigmacs.

  • KFC wanting to fight diabetes... aha... ahahah.... AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

    This is the same company with menu items with 100g+ white carbohydrates.. combined with pepsi = massive spike in blood sugar and subsequent crash, increased insulin resistance, repeated enough times leads to diabetes. Fast food is a big part of the reason 75% of the country is overweight.. and they're making billions off fat people buying their greasy crap, so they can't honestly pretend they want that to change.

  • This is sad. 

  • *look up translation for acacia unit of measurement*

    "The gallon is a measure of volume approximately equal to 4.54 litres. "

    SHIT!!

  • @celestialsalamander They're talking about American gallons (3,78 L).

  • @Zendrig

    those crazy americans, it's not enough that they use outdated mussurment. they have to change them so they are differant even from what those who use the imperial system are use to.

  • After the poop burger, I'm going to go ahead and assume all these stories are fake.

  • Anybody who drinks any amount of pop on a regular basis will get diabetes no question. Pop is SUGAR WATER. I cannot believe these two have joined forces. Lol what a joke~

  • @mschristy1976

    it's like 10% suger by mass

  • I think the money goes to type 1 diabetes research. Not the kind you get from soda (type 2). Still it's incredibly ironic and hypocritical.

  • 2:28 over and over again for epic pepsi-boarding lulz.

  • wow look at the hypocrit talk dumb muslim

  • @Xytos

    He's"agnostic". he's not a muslim. he's probibly like a week athiest or something

  • Pepsi = Diabetes

  • thats sick buy one share with a few friends only spent 3 dollars and everyone got a drink.

  • @dogthedog2

    yeah you should take a few glasses from home and treet it like one of those jugs of bear you buy at a bar.

  • no one is forcing you to buy that shit, people buy that shit because they want. I hate when people complain about this companies making america fat and unhealthy is your choice as a person to eat that crap no one is forcing you. If you are fat is your fault and if you get diabetes is not KFC or McDonald fault is your responsibility to be healthy.

  • Comment removed

  • Type-1 diabetes, which is what the JDREF donates money to research, is not caused by caloric or sugar intake. It's a pancreatic problem that's totally unrelated to type-2.

    DERP.

    Now if a type-2 diabetes charity were doing this, that shit would be funny.

  • its not priuses, its prii. they took a poll

  • How about do not buy the $3.00 pop and donate that money to the charity

  • I just want a bucket of skin.

    And a diet coke.

  • If the soda is meant to be shared, then why does it come in a regular cup that one person would drink from? Would a family share the straw too or just each get their own and drink from it like a giant Pepsi trough? And if they are just going to pour it into smaller cups, why not just sell 2 liters? Pretty sure that monstrosity is for one person.

  • @fightforyourrights9: It's a comprehensive design. Theres a little handle thing that makes it look like a bucket to go with the bucket of chicken and yeah you pour it. It's just a design they've always had and the soda buckets are always listed as family sized so it isn't for one unless you want it to be.

  • Prius plural is Prii. (AS IF IT WAS IMPORTANT) lol

  • @blaknoizee haha i thought i was the only one thinking it

  • @supercj476 we've seen/heard the commercial.

  • hydrogenated corn syrup will get you every time...

  • Comment removed

  • u share the soda dumb fucks!

  • I was like ohh 0.5 galleons that shouldn't be THAT much. I do a conversion.. and it's fucking 1.8 LITRES WTF. America is ridiculous.

  • its not 56 spoonfuls of sugar, its the sweetness equivalent of that in high fructose corn syrup, which is WAY worse than sugar for your health.

  • 75% obese/overweight

    +skyrocketing health care costs

    = tax the fat

    +fix this entitled country of laggards.

  • @thereinliestherib Tax high fructose corn syrup. There you go.

  • @thereinliestherib LoL Genius.

  • It's "Prii", not "Priuses".

  • @Imperai What a priussy thing to say.

  • @thereinliestherib lmao! xD

  • Who's the wetback?

  • That's almost as stupid,

    as "President" Obama saying that voting for his "health care" bill,

    will lower the cost of our medical bills.

  • BHAHAHA! Were so fat. lol

  • I guess you have to get diabetes before you can have it cured. o.O

  • It's ONLY 64 oz. - 32 OZ (A QUARTER GALLON) drinks just don't do it anymore. *** And they tax smokers for "our" ingestion of a harmful substance without seeing any hypocrisy. At least we have the "addiction" argument. Cenk, your comments?

  • This is for the family meal, I'm sure. KFC has a lot of family meals made to serve 5+ people. Nothing wrong with this promo. I'm skinny, but I drink absurd amounts of soda and do not have diabetes (either type) or out of control weight gain issues, so maybe people like me can drink all the Pepsi and help out those who can't drink as much because they do have these issues.

  • how would KFC help end diabetes ? close shop.

  • Jayar seems like the kind of guy who eats junk food but has a great metabolism. I could be wrong...

  • That is a lot of pop! 1/2 a gallon?!

  • Chugging half a gallon of Pepsi would sound like a fraternity hazing ritual if you had to chug it upside-down while getting assraped. LOL.

  • While I admire KFC for quietly murdering a generation of schwoogies with high cholesterol, sodium, and saturated fat, their chicken still tastes like shit.

  • I don't even want to drink a small soda, much less that giant thing [though I understand it's supposed to be shared]. But I think it's counterproductive to the foundation, not only for the obvious reason, but now I wouldn't even want to donate to that cause since I know that they are being promoted with this giant pepsi.

  • Water/Milk... That's pretty much the only thing you need to drink... (Fruit Juice = Full of sugar, Vegetable Juice = Full of sodium)...

    Not only those 2 are better, but they are way cheaper !

  • @EckoStream I would say cut out milk. Just water. There is all kind of shi* in milk now a days.

  • @slenderlatina Skim milk actually helps you lose weight and is amazingly good for you.

  • @slenderlatina How about getting these fat fucks some exercise? Milk is great because of the calcium for example, just get the kids 0% fat milk.

  • @slenderlatina there isn't if you go to the right producers.

  • @slenderlatina There's all kinds of shit in water now a days.

  • @slenderlatina Good luck getting your calcium. Milk is the nectar of human life. What came out of your mothers breasts when you were a baby? Water? Maybe you should by proper milk instead of cheap generic brants that are full of artificial crap and you wouldn't hate milk so much.

    Try some water on your meusli and see how you like it.

  • @slenderlatina there's nothing significant in milk today than there was a thousand years ago. But theres a fuck ton more of it, so you better appreciate

  • I know people who drink a 2 litter bottle of coke a day, so that half gallon jug of pepsi isnt a surprise to me. Of course, those people are fat asses on the brink of getting diabetes, but its still possible to drink one.
