Pepsi: Mountain Dew Can Dissolve A Mouse
|Back in 2009, a man sued PepsiCo, saying he found a dead mouse in a can of Mountain Dew. Pepsi wanted to prove its innocence by suggesting its high-caffeine drink is so extreme that it would have dissolved the mouse carcass, rendering it a “jelly-like substance.”
According to a story from the Madison Record that people are only really reading now, Pepsi submitted testimony from a scientist who gave that grotesque description in an effort to seek summary judgment.
Not long afterward, Pepsi asked for a change of attorneys in the case.
