Fido Dido (/ˈfaɪdoʊ ˈdaɪdoʊ/ or /ˈfaɪdoʊ ˈdiːdoʊ/) is a cartoon character of a male youth created by Joanna Ferrone and Sue Rose.
Since PepsiCo does not have the rights to 7-Up in the United States (where it is a product of the Dr Pepper Snapple Group), Fido Dido was instead used to promote Slice.
[citation needed] A large mural of Fido Dido was painted on the side of a building in the city of Guayaquil, Ecuador, in the early 1990s and was nearly erased by the passing of time.
After a news article was published by El Universo in March 2019, the mural was repainted to refresh the image.
[citation needed] In 1993, a video game called Fido Dido was made by Kaneko and Bits Studios[17] for the Super NES and Sega Genesis.
[citation needed] In the early 1990s, Fido Dido had a comic strip in the teenage magazine YM.
[citation needed] Pepper Ann, a spinoff of the Fido Dido strip, would later be adapted into a Disney TV series.
