I suppose when you can't STOP saying Coca Cola you need to dial it back a bit.

Instead of Coca-Cola making the money, they decided to give it to the wrong people in so. America

Yes.

I heard wolf cola still has cocaine in it

That's an actual technique, it's called the "bliss point"

This is the stupidest post I've read here so far, there's no such thing as too much cocaine.
JustADumbRename
It's just about finding that balance
Jaynecobb7
They didn't. The went with not putting enough cocaine in it.

Watched an episode of the Andy Griffith Show last night, Gomer cleaned a car engine with soda. It so was casual and not done as a joke.
fuggit0ften
Soda will clean up corrosion on your battery posts as baking soda does also
everettscott
Oh, I know. I just think nowadays it would be done with some kind of irony where as back then it was no big deal and common knowledge.

It was original a cough medicine. They added carbonated water later.

Can't wait for 100 years from now when people are drinking a cold, refreshing Nyquil.

carbonate the cherry flavor and sell it as a cherry soda and I'd drink it

Og was actually just cocaine and wine sold as a patent 'medicine' for energy and vigor
Superkroot
Way better than Pepsi and 7up, which had kola nuts and lithium in them respectively
CMarshmallow
As someone who is ignorant, what would the effects of consuming those things be?
Superkroot
Kola nuts supposedly helped with dyspepsia (indigestion) and lithium is a mood stabilizer

You’ve never done cocaine before. Neither have I.
Error404TrollNotFound
I haven't either. I just like how it smells.
tr3kstar
Explain
MyWorldMySkyMyColours
Cocaine was not added to enhance flavour. "Coke" a cola was not purchased for its taste. Energy boost to work 16hr shifts.
tr3kstar
Would you continue to drink something that tasted like shit just because it gave you energy...wait. Coffee, Monsters, Redbull...Ok. You win.
IUsedToBeTheWalrus
When I'm halfway through my coffee, I always ask myself, "Wait...why am I drinking this lousy Keurig crap?" Then it hits me.
MaverickGoose2020
That sounds like a good amount to me
tr3kstar
As a former cocaine user, and s current consumer of things I can taste, I can tell you with relative certainty that companies who sell 1/2
tr3kstar
Things that they want you to taste and enjoy, numbing the nerves of tasting organ of said people is a poor business strategy.
unfortunategoose
the tobacco industry disagrees!
Badsequence
I see you are a man of culture I too used to be a cocaine user or what you would call a weekend warrior that is until my weekends 1/2
Badsequence
started on a Wednesday night and ended on a sad Monday morning. Haven't done coke in like 5 years still miss it sometimes.

Mine were always Thursday to Sunday. It's been 9 for me and the husband. We both wit everything when I got preggers. Me for obvious

But isn't that like less potent than tea leaves?

Them people who are harvesting coca plants live to be 80 to 100 years old. It's fun stuff, but all the scum bags ruined it

Sauce?
GaryTheDamnSnail
Red bull had it too at one point
SarcasticComment
Coca leaves are a mild stimulant. These days, adding caffeine is both cheaper and more potant.
SarcasticComment
Fun fact: coca leaves are incomparable to cocaine. Coca leaf tea is a mild stimulant helping with altitude sickness in places like Peru
fuggit0ften
That's right
LynxMcCoy
check your facts. coca leaves contain up to 1% cocaine. If you extract that, you got simple cocaine. Its just a matter of quantity.
SarcasticComment
The point was the processing of the leaves makes cocaine. In its natural state, it is a mild stimulant.
SarcasticComment
Also, it takes 370 kilos of coca leaves to make 1 kilo of cocaine, so even if they contain 1% alkaloid, processing fails to extract it all
SarcasticComment
The fact that there are hundreds of leaves in each kilo, and 370 kilos are needed, shows just how inefficient the processing of cocaine is.
LynxMcCoy
Or simply eat a whole bush
SarcasticComment
You don't eat the leaves. Chew them and spit them out or brew tea. I'd love to see you become a vomit commit after swallowing them
OuttaCoffee
A vomit comic? Oh a vomit comet.
