Pakola, the green colored fizzy drink can easily be called the national drink of Pakistan. It is hardly possible to find anyone who is not a fan of the sweet ice cream soda.

However, recently there have been reports of the cold drink being different in taste and smell. People have also taken to Facebook and Twitter to share their concerns. It looks like the quality has suffered a great deal, the pungent smell of the Pakola bottles have led consumers to lodge complaints.

A post on Facebook by Kinza Inam explained how she had bought two bottles of Pakola which smelled horribly wrong. She then had to throw both bottles down the train as they were not fit for consumption.

Looks like she was not the only one that had received the weird smelling drink!

The drink is available at all leading supermarkets. It has also been discovered that Pakola cans are of top quality while the plastic bottles seem to be the problem.

It is also possible that a counterfeit product is being manufactured and sold in the market in order to defame the brand. The company has not released any official statement regarding the ongoing crisis.

Some believed quick action needs to be taken!
