PepsiCola is an anagram for Episcopal

Pepsi Cola, the original drink of Pepsico Inc. (Traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol PEP) is an anagram (a word that can be made out of the letters of another word) of Episcopal. There is a theory that the name Pepsi-Cola came about because Caleb Bradham, the pharmacist who created Pepsi on August 28, 1898, had his drugstore across the street from an Episcopal Church. (This is one of several name derivation theories, by the way.)
