One of the biggest flops in the history of American beverages may be making its way back to your local supermarket. And we couldn’t be more excited! Crystal Pepsi Commercial Kevin Strahle, a YouTube user who went viral in 2013 for posting a video of him downing a 20-year old bottle of Crystal Pepsi, has been hard at work to get the drink back on shelves across the country. He and other enthusiasts have signed a Change.org petition… created a Facebook page… emailed the soda company’s CEO… and even put up billboards promoting their #BringBackCrystalPepsi campaign. Might all this effort actually soon pay off?!? This week, the group was rewarded with a letter from Pepsi, which Strahle tweeted on June 8 and which reads in part: “Your love for Pepsi is clear – crystal clear. The passion you’ve shown for Crystal Pepsi is unmatched, and we love it!” The message concluded: “We definitely hear you and your followers and we think you’ll all be happy with what’s in store.” Pepsi has since confirmed to NBC News that the letter is real, saying: “We take customer feedback very seriously and we do think Crystal Pepsi fans will be happy with what we have planned.” Between this and Bud Light apologizing for sounding pro-rape , maybe beverage companies really do listen to their customers.
