Ameerika suurfirma teeb petukaupa - väidab, et retsept ei muutu. Jääb mulje, et pole muutunud alates aastast 1886, kuid tegelikult (ingliskeelsest wikipeediast):

"When launched Coca Cola's two key ingredients were cocaine (benzoylmethyl ecgonine) and caffeine. The cocaine was derived from the coca leaf and the caffeine from kola nuts - Coca-Cola (the 'K' in Kola was replaced with a C for marketing purposes).

Coca - Cocaine

Pemberton called for five ounces of coca leaf per gallon of syrup, a significant dose, whereas, in 1891, Candler claimed his formula (altered extensively from Pemberton's original) contained only a tenth of this amount. Coca Cola did once contain an estimated nine milligrams of cocaine per glass, but in 1903 it was removed. Coca Cola still contains coca flavouring.

After 1904, Coca Cola started using, instead of fresh leaves, "spent" leaves - the leftovers of the cocaine-extraction process with cocaine trace levels left over at a molecular level. To this day, Coca Cola uses as an ingredient a cocaine free coca leaf extract prepared at a Stepan Company plant in Maywood, New Jersey."


Ja pealegi, pool liitrit kümne krooni eest mittealkohoolset jooki? Hullumaja! Ostan vaid head õlut hinnaga kroonike üle kümne poole liitri sisu eest. Viimasel ajal hakkab valik na kitsaks jääda ja eks siis jää tehased minust kui kliendist ilma ja paras kapitalistiraibetele.
