Not bad exit for the founders.

Interesting to find out.

I had those a few times, but didn’t care for them. I actually liked the taste of Olipop more, but it’s harder to find in stores.

I wanted to try Poppi until I found out they were about $12 CAD for 4 cans, and you can get 24 cans of Pepsi on sale for that price.

Yeah, Poppi has low sugar, but do you know what has less sugar? Pepsi Zero Sugar.

They're $8 USD for 4 cans here (so about the same price when converted). Even when we had more money, we considered that pricey.
