MC Hammer has Feelings for Pepsi

Pepsi and other similar products contain large amounts of sugar. Excessive sugar intake is thought to be a contributing factor in the development of certain types of diabetes.

[MC] Hammer also began the trend of rap artists being accepted as mainstream pitchmen. Prior to Hammer, it was virtually unheard of for a hip-hop artist to be seen in a major commercial spot. Hammer appeared in major marketing campaigns for companies such as Pepsi and Taco Bell to the point that he was criticized as a “sell-out”.

McDonalds NHL Replica Goalie Star Sticks

The goaltender (also known colloquially as goalie or netminder) in ice hockey is the player who defends his team’s goal net by stopping shots of the puck from entering his team’s net, thus preventing the opposing team from scoring.

The special hockey stick goaltenders use has a blade that is approximately 3 1⁄2 inches (8.9 cm) wide. The lower 25 to 28 inches (64 to 71 cm) of the shaft is widened to provide more blocking surface. This area is called the paddle. Although traditional goalie sticks were usually made completely of wood, most modern sticks are reinforced with graphite and fiberglass and the paddle and blade are injected with foam to make them lighter. Recently, manufacturers have begun to produce sticks made completely from composite materials, which are more durable.

Dominos Cheese Burst Pizza

At one point, Domino’s Pizza had a guarantee that a customer would receive their pizza within 30 minutes of ordering, or they would receive the pizza free. The guarantee was ended in 1993 due to concerns over drivers breaking traffic laws and putting themselves and others at risk trying to fulfill the guarantee. In 2008, the company again advertised a 30 minute delivery time in the U.S.; the fine print in the material stated the time as merely an “estimate”. However, in India and Mexico, Domino’s still guarantees delivery within 30 minutes, failing which the customer is given his order free of cost.
