    Tell all you stories to do with Coke (not the drug :D).

    One story I heard was the Santa only started wearing red, white and black because he was paid by the Coca Cola company. No wonder he was so fat!! :)

    Wasn`t that one of the original ingredients back in the days when people didn`t know drugs and cigarettes are bad for you?

    Mmm, Coca Cola, the nectar of the Gods. It is like a magic elixir.

    Give me a frosty cold glass of Coke on ice anytime.

    I have a sweet Otis Redding CD and one track is him singing a Coke commercial and it has a great line:

    Even makes a bag of peanuts seem like the choicest meal.

    I've been weaning myself off of it, but I never understood how it settles your stomach with all that acidic carbonation (but for me it does???)... maybe cause it's eating away all the nerves in my stomach? :eek: Been my liquid "breakfast of champions" for a while. :eek:

    Never heard of those more disturbing stories though... thanks for making me paranoid now lol :p jk!

    Oh yeah... I was actually told by my dentist that you should never brush your teeth for a couple hours after drinking soda (and should rinse with water after), and if you do drink it, drink it fast so that it's not soaking your teeth for hours.

    I'm going to mythbusters.com right now and find out how bad it REALLY is for your teeth.

    Edit: Well, doesn't look like they have it there, so the question is do I trust those web sites people linked to, that I know nothing about, or a dentist I know nothing about? :p

    Enough to make one want to become a chemist just to stay healthy.

    I remember seing it on a English version of Mythbusters, apparently if you leave a tooth in a glass of CocaCola for a few days, the tooth dissolves. This wasn't true, however, if you leave a copper coin English being 1p/2p... leave it for a few days and it comes out like new.

    The tooth did look as if it had damage to it.

    Have a look here!

    If Freud was right, then the original was actually good for your mental health lol... but I think Freud was just basically insane and trying to figure out his own problems.

    Oops... I think I just used his psychology right there haha.
