How Pepsi's Iconic 1980s Soda Brand Managed to Reinvent Itself for Modern Times
In short: Slice was once a ubiquitous soft drink that defined a generation. While its initial popularity as a competitor to Sprite eventually faded, the brand name proved resilient enough to undergo a surprising transformation. This video examines the rise, fall, and unexpected probiotic return of this classic soda.
