What about Fanta? Is that included in the boycott?

[โ€“] Bunbury 3 points 16 hours ago

Plenty of people try to boycott anything by US brands. So I would assume that plenty of people who are boycotting also stopped drinking Fanta. But the thing is because this is more of a movement originating from the public not everyone does research in equal amounts. Fanta is likely less obviously US based to most people compared to Coca-Cola. So if Iโ€™d have to guess it was probably boycotted less by comparison.
