Cola Wars take an odd turn

PepsiCo and Coca-Cola apparently worked together to bust a Coke employee who was trying to sell Pepsi Coke's Secret Formula (from the Kansas City Star)[*1] :

“Competition can sometimes be fierce, but also must be fair and legal,” Pepsi spokesman Dave DeCecco said. “We’re pleased the authorities and the FBI have identified the people responsible for this.”

Three cheers for the PepsiCo management, and a welcome reminder that most businesses are run ethically and above-board.  This is why the Ken Lays of the world are aberrations (and hence newsworthy).
