For the record, the following *ARE NOT, REPEAT NOT* owned by PepsiCo:

Taco Bell
KFC
Pizza Hut
Long John Silver’s
A&W All-American Food
WingStreet

They are owned by Yum! Brands, a totally independent, publicly traded company.

YES - Taco Bell/KFC/Pizza Hut WERE owned at one time by PepsiCo. Pepsi spun off its foodservices division in 1997, the new company was originally called Tricon Global Restaurants. That was merged into the parent company of A&W and LJS, forming Yum! Brands.

YES all Yum! locations serve Pepsi products (except for A&W root beer) - If you must boycott Pepsi, get a water (or a frosty mug of A&W) instead of a Pepsi.
