  Pascual Boing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pascual Boing is a Mexican soft drinks company.
Pascual Boing is a very important company in the eyes of left-wing politicians, as it is one of the few Mexican worker-owned companies that have national presence, even making inroads into the United States market.
Pascual doesn't see itself as a private, for-profit company; they claim that being worker-owned (a cooperative) they perform a social function and as such expropriation in their favor is for public benefit.

Pascual made losts of other promotional items including ashtrays, ice chests, tin signs, notepads, glasses, all of which are rarer than the trays.
Pre-1980s, Betty looked more like the Betty we know, after that, Pascual was forced to stop using Betty's image without being licensed, so they made her hair longer, fuller and gave her straight bangs; but nose, eyes and mouth remained the same.

Despite pleas and protests from Mexican soft drink bottler Pascual Cooperative, the Mexican supreme court recently ruled that soft drinks are not a national interest that needs special protection.
What this means is that Pascual, which produces traditional fruit-flavored sodas and juices such as Boing!, will have to give up the government-provided land that houses their main factory in Mexico City.
Pascual will continue to operate from two smaller plants outside Mexico City.

The residents of the neighborhood, both surprised and happy with the support, offered whatever help they could to the unexpected campers, who knew they would be there “as long as it takes.” A huge meal was prepared and all sitting on the grass enjoyed the food.
Right on time to quench the dry throats came a well-stocked truck sent by the compañeros of the Pascual Cooperative (who run the popular, worker-owned Boing fruit juice company), handing out assorted drinks for everyone; the struggle now tasted of fruit.
Bringing up the rear were contingents from the Party of Communists and the Communist Youth, members of adherent-collectives of the Other Campaign in Morelos, and the alternative press, which, despite the unusual presence of the national commercial media, is always a crushing majority.
