Anyone Drink Coke - Page 2

I dont like coke, just the "smell" of it!

Brutus2600 · 09-09-2010, 09:33 PM

I drink coke like nobody's business.

Jack and Coke is a staple of mine. Cuba Libres have recently become a go to drink, and that too uses Coke.

I've got a pile of codes I just need to go through and enter. I'm sure I have some ridiculous number.

The funny thing is I used to only drink Pepsi. Since Pepsi just doesn't mix the same as Coke though, around age 21 my tastes started to change

I used to love Pepsi, now all I drink is Coke

I prefer Coke to Pepsi, and like to razz Pepsi-philes about Coke being better...

... but in truth I'll drink both! LOL

Of course, on the 8th day, G-d created Coke Cola.

Mexican Coke is the only one for the Hasidic; no corn syrup.

They actually make coke with real sugar around passover, but it's the 2L bottles and they have a yellow cap. It says corn syrup on the ingredients still, but it's made with real sugar.

Linky

However since that's just a few weeks out of the year that it's available, and the fact that I live in Texas (I don't know if this matters or not), Mexican coke is pretty easy to come by

Yes, I know the yellow cap bottles, but glass is glass! We buy the Mexican version at Costco, but I think our local super markets have it too by the case.

Except for that little problem that it's not actually certified kosher.

I love Coke in the little 8oz glass bottles.

I currently have 455 points.
Last time I used points to get a Photo Book from Snapfish.
I don't really look to see what they offer very often.

I hear they make it in a bacon factory.

I'd buy it.

Me too, if it existed.

BTW, you actually aren't too far off on the bacon facility comment - Mexican coke isn't produced in a kosher facility according to kosher laws, nor is it produced with certified kosher ingredients. To simply say that it's kosher just because it has sugar in it rather than corn syrup is about as asinine as saying that beef from a conventional slaughterhouse (jackhammer to the forehead, etc) is kosher just because it's not pork.

That's why I made the comment about the factory in which it's produced. They even need separate food prep areas in a home kitchen, each with their own standards.

Yup.

I actually had a longer more technical reply that included a preemptive apology if I was describing something you already knew, but deleted all of it and went with a simpler reply.

Sledgehammers are so 1905...

Had to go look up the name of the "jackhammer"... apparently the proper name is a pneumatic captive bolt pistol.

Gotcha. I just had this really bizarre image of some poor guy trying to kill a cow with a conventional jackhammer.
