Malcolm Gladwell on Spaghetti SauceWhy are some people willing to pay $4.00 for a cup of coffee, or a jar of mustard? In this short video, author Malcolm Gladwell tells the story of how Howard Moskowitz changed the way we think about food, and how it makes us happy. By analyzing data about food preferences in a new way, he transformed the spaghetti sauce industry. His ideas were so simple and yet so profound that they fundamentally changed the way the entire food industry works, for the better. From a larger perspective, the story provides insight into the way we seek and find happiness, and illustrates how a simple idea can have profound financial and social effects. The video is here: Enjoy!

There are at least twelve varieties of soft drinks currently sold under the trade name "Pepsi," according to their website: http://www.pepsiproductfacts.com/infobyproduct.php. There have been dozens of Pepsi variations sold at one time or another to various market niches: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Pepsi_variations
