Why Does Coca-Cola Lie To Customers?
Coca-Cola has an official "Animal Welfare Policy" proclaiming:
"The Coca-Cola Company does not endorse or condone any practice of cruelty to animals, and the Company does not sponsor or promote events where there is a risk of physical harm to animals. Additionally, The Coca-Cola Company does not sponsor rodeos or bullfighting events. "
However, Coca-Cola is a prominently displayed major sponsor at many of the world's largest rodeos,
So why is Coke sponsoring rodeos, in contradiction of the company's policy?
Amazingly, Coke blames its own bottlers. Coke claims the bottlers are able to do their own independent advertising without violating Coke's Animal Welfare Policy.
Coca-Cola obviously has strict control over its bottlers, and
the advertising is being done for Coke, not the local bottling company.
