I mean is this written in the contract, or just an illicit cause for firing them?

My husband works for Coke and if someone sees him go into a restaurant that only serves Pepsi (for instance, Taco Bell), he can get fired. And someone at his job got written up for bringing KFC to work. And the other person above was right. If you wear your uniform and purchase a competitor's brand, that is cause for termination.
Edit* It is actually in the handbook that they cannot consume a competitor's beverage at all. That is considered grounds for termination. It also actually says that no one in your household can purchase or consume it either.

Especially if deliverymen in uniform. I have heard of firings for people violating this rule. Same thing with management patrolling parking lots of GM plant looking for people driving Ford or Chrysler (or even, Heaven forbid, an IMPORT!).

They can not drink it on the job or in uniform. They also can not buy will on the job or in uniform. I don't think it would matter is they had lunch at a restaurant that only sold the oppositions pop.

not sure, but I know that my friend works for Coca Cola and they are forbidden to bring any Pepsi products on the premises...

I think that might be true, but I'm sure you can sneak one here and there. My friend works for Budwiser and he's not allowed to drink anything that they don't distribute. But he gets it for free, so why be picky?
