Big Soda

Big Soda is a term used by the media[1] and various activist groups[2] to describe the soft drink industry as a collective entity. The term connotes the business and lobbying power of soft drink companies who, like Big Oil and Big Tobacco, would use that power to influence politicians and voters.[3]

Big Soda usually refers to the giants of the soft drink industry, The Coca-Cola Company, PepsiCo, and Keurig Dr Pepper.[4]
