If you go to africa you can still get coke in a glass and some stores still sell them in glass like here is switzerland you can get it in restaurants and stuff! O i love coke!!
In Canada they still use sugar based (sweetener) in Coke rather than the corn syrup the (US) switched to;hence the different flavor.When Americans shop and visit here they often comment that our Coke tastes like it used to in the 60's at home.
bugeyes455858: I knew a 50-year old male who drank large amounts of Coco-Cola everyday for several years. He died instantly about 12 months ago from a ruptured liver caused by Coke-Cola. This was the diagnosis from medical doctors. My advice is to also drink large amounts of water at other times of the day in order to dilute Coke's detrimental health effects on the body. Coca-Cola is also one of my all-time favourite drinks, but I rarely drink it because there are other healthier alternatives.
In my part of Ohio, you can get the 7 oz bottles of Coke and occasionally they'll have the big glass bottles (imported from Mexico) for sale individually
Glass in LA, too. Got to be careful, though. Grab the eight ounce bottles. The twelve are from Mexico. With the eights bottled in US you get less sodium, which means less bloating and less desire for one after another.
@gore53 Around here the "Mexican Coke" is highly prized. Why? Because they actually use the old sugar-based formula there instead of the corn syrup sweetened mix American bottlers favor.
@beachdog67 I'll try Mexican Coke again. It'll give me an excuse to exceed my self imposed limit. If you don't mind my asking... Where is 'around here?' Also... Joy Of Cooking... awesome. Takes me back.
The reason I said that is because Coke was losing ground to Pepsi at that time because of Michael Jackson's commercial. They couldn't find a celebrity as big as him at that time to combat them, so they pulled that little stunt to get attention. Just a theory; would like to know if anyone else felt that way or if it was just me?
When "New" Coke came out in the '80s, I always wondered if it was all part of a big gimmick to induce more sales of Coke. You know, introduce a new flavor and take the old one off the market, people get up in arms and complain mightily, then they bring back "Classic" Coke with lots of fanfare and the old customers come back plus lots of new ones. Kind of a calculated risk, so to speak. May cost you some money, but you get it back with interest in the long run.
Coca-cola is sooo much better in the glass bottle! I had a neighbor who had a coca-cola soda machine that spit out glass bottles of cold refreashing coca-cola! Madea mint off of us kids in the neighborhood! When he died thou, his kids junk the machine! :( It still worked to! Today that whould have been a collectors item! :(
Nope, not true! Coca cola was produced in 1885m with an "unknown" quantity of coca leaves extract and kola nuts. This was eventually outlawed after the turn of the century; it got people "hooked" on coca cola however.
Those were the days of our lives! Those days are gone now, but thing is still true...when I look and I find...I still love Cocoacola and the way we all were!
there's no telling how much money they lost when they came out with the New Coke back in the 80's. They tried to fix it by introducing Coke Classic, but people swore it wasn't the same. The glass bottles do have a better taste, always have.
@jazzycockatiel - They still have coke in glass bottles. Go to stores. That may be a generalization, usually markets will have coke in a bottle or Mexican markets will usually always have them. I have next to my house called Tarasco's Market and they have the best pan(mexican bread), mango's, soda in bottles, tamarind, sangria and many other cultural things that will make you happy to have a Mexican market in your town.
@jazzycockatiel They still make in glass bottles the right way in Mexico. They sell them in Latino stores at least in California they do. Litro Medio (aka) King size the big bottles are best.

kisskissluv9 2 years ago
If you swung those cartons like that in real life....
1) you'd shake up the soda and it would explode when you opened the bottle
2) the weight of the bottles would have broke the bottom of that carton out sent them flying.

Cocaine was removed from Coca-Cola in 1903. Ever since then, they've used cocaine-free cola leaves to add flavor.
