Diet Pepsi’s new “Skinny Can” hitting shelves in March 2011

According to Pepsi’s Feb. 8 Press Release the Diet Pepsi Skinny Can is a “celebration of beautiful, confident women.”

Umm, NO. It’s not. It’s essentially a celebration of unattainable, often unhealthy beauty standards.

Because, you know, skinny = beautiful. Marketing Department = FIRED.
