I can't stop cringing at Pepsi's latest Coke-bashing campaign
Briefly

Pepsi attempts to parody Coca-Cola's famous 'Share a Coke' campaign by replacing names with food items like 'Burgers' and 'Tacos', suggesting that Pepsi enhances meals. However, critics suggest that this approach crosses into cringeworthy territory, lacking the originality that made some of Pepsi's prior advertising efforts successful. While themes of collaboration and humor can be effective in marketing, Pepsi's latest effort appears as a rehash rather than a creative offering, diminishing the impact as it takes direct inspiration from a competitor's concept.
Coca-Cola's 'Share a Coke' campaign features names to promote sharing, while Pepsi's attempt humorously swaps names for foods, but lacks originality.
Pepsi's new campaign encourages fans to 'Share a Pepsi' with favorite foods, claiming that it enhances the flavors of popular summer meals.
