    From 1898 to the 1940s, Pepsi's logo closely resembled that of Coca-Cola's swirly red script. This may not have been an overt attempt to copy Coke's already-successul branding.

    First Fridge Pack Invented
    The Coca-Cola Co. calls it the greatest innovation in packaging since the contoured plastic bottle was introduced 20 years ago. It's the Fridge Vendor, or Fridge Pack as Coke calls it, which stacks a 12-pack of soft drink cans into a longer and narrower package with an opening that dispenses individual cans.
    It was created to make easy access, to fit nicely in a fridge, and to keep it cold.
    Pepsi eventually followed.
