Was a Dead Mouse Found in a Can?
In 2012, a man tried to sue PepsiCo after he claimed he found a dead mouse inside his can of Mountain Dew. Defending themselves against the lawsuit, PepsiCo stated the rodent would have disintegrated during the timespan of the soda being placed on and self and it being purchased. The Smoking Gun reported a representative from the company claimed “after 30 days exposure… the mouse will have been transformed into a ‘jelly-like’ substance.” The case later revealed the mouse allegedly found inside the can hadn’t been born during the production time of the particular can of soda and “was already dead” when it was found submerged in the substance.
