There's several brands of soda I really like that they don't seem to carry in anything but a few "premium" grocery stores around me. I think most brands are better than coke and Pepsi, but they own everything and are all that's available to most of the US.
It's just another terrible symptom of our horrible late stage capitalism. Three companies own like 90% of the brands in almost every grocery store in America. At least with soda them making the options shit makes it less tempting for me to buy and drink the product.
Yeah, I wholeheartedly agree.
But Fritz is a German brand and it’s in every supermarket and corner store around me, and I tend to find it all over Europe. It really is available just as much as Coke, and in fact a lot easier to find than Pepsi, at least where I am.
