Pepsi Taste Test commercial [1983]

1983 television commercial for Pepsi, and their beachside Taste Test challenge.
Sounds like a young Robert Hughes (Hey Dad!) doing the voice-over at end.

when was this commercial made??

[GrubcoTV3]

I dated the video tape as 1983, but the ad could be a few years older than that. I'm sure there were other versions made (ie with different people).

under the other cup was another pepsi

it says OVER 50 dummyy :)

yeah I find it humorous...on top of that, why would some one want to buy a drink because more other people like it? that doesn't change the way their taste buds feel about the drink at all....

[Nick Howell]

Id say popularity/accessibility but also someone stated something like, "because pepsi has more sugar and they are only drinking small portions in the test, the human nature is to pick the sweeter drink" But the Pepsi challenge is mostly just a bunch of politics.

[Dave L]

if over 50 percent prefer pepsi to the leading cola, why is the leading cola the leading cola? I would figure people usually prefer to buy the cola they like most, right? :D
