Summary/Abstract: By paraphrasing Andy Warhol, we agree that America is a utopian material and the substance of the American Dream can be found within “Coca-Cola” - an affordable product for everyone which has the same taste for the nation's president, for Elizabeth Taylor and for the ordinary people. America - an area of simulation and simulacrum, terms understood in a baudrillardian manner, whose suburbs are dominated by supermarkets, is the picture of the perfect life and the universe of consumerism.
