Not surprised that a company named after the god of war is an international war sponsor

Took me about 7 seconds of thinking before I realized you meant Mars. Couldn't remember a God named Pepsi for the life of me.

Pepsi is actually named after Pepe the frog.

Actually it's named after the Pepsicum plant, which gives Pepsi it's garbage taste.
