Easter?? Things like this are not accidental. Lots of marketing psychology, research, focus group polling, etc. goes into these decisions. I don’t drink soda so it’s wasted on me. It is interesting watching these mega corporations manipulate the masses…and they don’t realize it’s happening.

Because all the little bunnies go "awwwww" and pick up six, of which they will pitch five because Pepsi is already sweet enough to kill a diabetic at 12 paces.
In short, cute sells.

Easter, Christmas, and I think Halloween. Basically all the "candy" holidays.

Ahhh, thanks for the correction. When my kids were little (mid 80’s, 90’s), I only remembered them around this time. Maybe it’s more correct to say, we only bought them around this time.

Yes, they probably get home, take them out of the bag and think, "WHY in the world did I buy this??"
Reeled in by the marketing cuteness factor.

ICK! I would never put a marshmallow in my mouth! The best thing to do with marshmallows: we throw them at each other.
A good marshmallow fight IS a lot of fun.

Correct. People are paid a lot of money to make these marketing/merchandising mistakes. The companies would do much better in letting those minions make those decisions.Money!!!!!….. some idiot in the boardroom who is pay muchly thought it up?….
